WORTH IT$3,800
Just wanted some opinions from ladies who've had a BBL with lipo only (no other combined procedures please) in Tijuana.
I'm traveling alone and am pretty independent. I've had 4 non-cosmetic surgeries and recovered on my own at home without support. My ownly concern is laundry and putting on/taking off the compression garment. Just wanted to know if a RH is really necessary? I have the means to pay for the RH but want to be cost effective. I'm always looking for the best deal at the lowest cost. I'm frugal not cheap. Due to stomach issues, I'm on a special diet, which means I probably won't be eating any of the food at the RH.
I haven't been able to find much information on the hiring of private nurses other than a night nurse for post-op at the facility. I'd like to hire a nurse to come out for an hour a day for 7 days to assist with bathing, laundry and wound care. It would be a bonus if the nurse could drive me to and from my appointments and pick up any meds or other incidentals needed.
*If anyone has the contact info for any private nurses and/or private transporation from San Diego Airport, please let me know.*
I just don't see how 24-hour care is needed for just a BBL with lipo. I'll be back in March for a TT, BA and blepharoplasty and will be staying for 10 days at a RH without question.
Again, I'd like the opinions of VETS who have had BBL with lipo only. Thanks!

La Casa de Lilas it is!
Thanks to a recent review by SunBlock13, I've made the decision to stay at La Casa de Lilas. Was told by Marvin that the rates have increased by $10 so the price on their website is incorrect.
Total quote is $1160.
Night before surgery - free
Night(s) post-op at hospital - free (RH doesn't charge if you're not there)
Private room - $150/day x 7
Round trip transportation from SAN - $110
(I believe Dr. Pantoja offers transportation for $150/rt)

"FREE " Nursing Pillow is a POS!
Don't waste your time or money on this. It might work as a neck pillow.

Welcome to RS! Congrats on your next step to being bootified :) i will continue to follow your journey!

Thanks and congrats on your surgery. You look great. I'll make sure to keep following you. Thanks for the tip about not doing this alone. Do you have a pic of the chair Dr. C gave you? I haven't been able to find a comfortable solution for work yet. I bought a large foam roller to place under my thighs. It was an EPIC FAIL! Legs started to go numb and damn near rolled out the chair.

lol, Oh boy the one he gave me isnt comfortable but it works. It will not allow you to put pressure on your booty. Have you tried getting a yoga mat? A lot of girls by a yoga mat have it rolled up and put under their thighs. I will try taking a pic of what I have but its like a fiberglass shaped oval that I put under my thighs.

Just tried the yoga mat and it was meh. I also tried the Snoogle and it wasn't bad but takes up a lot of room. The search continues :\

There isnt going to be anything comfortable to use after a bbl. You have to get used to it. I hated the thing I bought from my PS but now I use it like nothing. Just goota work with it ;)
