Well after going a little back and forth with the clinic, I got my quote and my surgery date: April 18th!!!! I bought my tickets yesterday, I bought them at the airport and with the money I save I will pay for my luggage!!! I got 80% of what I need while there.. I just need the Mosqueta Oil, Bromalain and arnica pill. Do anyone know if I can get them there??? I am so excited, my mom is happy fir me but like a good mom, leery of me going alone but I told her that I wasn't scare-- a lie-- we'll just a little. My hubby wishes he could go but it would be a waste of at least 1K, between the flight and being a guest at the recovery house. He doesn't need to come since the ladies there are great n will take great care of me... But he still surprise with a mini vac to Myrtle Beach two months later!!! I have an awesome hubby!!! I have told everyone else nothing!!! Too much negativity and haters to share my joy!!! My BFF doesn't know yet but I'm sure she will be happy for me!! I will keep everyone updated... Taking my blood test at the end of this month, let u all know how this process will go!
Well later!!
Well later!!

Well, I got a buddy, which I met in a funny way.... We were both at a local PS...which had her waiting for over 2 hrs... She ended walking out of the office, I stayed n got a quote...we stroke a conversation... I told her that I knew I wanted to go to Dr. Robles but was there just to get another opinion... This PS had done a TT in my girl for only 3600, but no lipo... She does have a flat tummy but the waist still chunky and so is her back.... Cheap? Yes... But I rather pay a few more to get the results I want (he quoted me in a breakdown, like a auto repair store.. Almost $11000 form TT, and lipo... No BBL.) so I said BOY BYE!!! I'm going Team Robles!, so I started talking to her about my trip to DR and she got interested, I showed her this site and the rest is history.... He are going on the 17th, just 30 days away!!!!!! We are staying at Virginia's and even though we r not flying together, we go n come back the same day! So excited that I have a buddy!
A question....BOOPY PILLOW...can u take it on the plane or do I have to put it in my luggage?

Hi SulyRu, You said on another review that you had lipo and that it may have caused your celulite? Can you elaborate? I'm interested in knowing more. Did you wear support (like the faja). I'd like to have my inner thighs and knees done, but not concerned about skin tone & smoothness. Thanks

In 2003 I had all over the body lipo, tummy, back, flanks, arms, inner thighs, very aggressive lipo. I had it with a fault known PS. But unbeknown to me she was a really bad, immature and money hungry.... Put it this way, I ended up at the emergency room needing 3 blood transfusions, inner thigh burns, several seromas and internal bleeding of my under arms. She really did not offer any further care than my post op n every time she would keep saying all my issues were on my head.... She only told me to wear a compression garment for a couple of weeks, nothing about massages afterwords, like I said, she wrote me off after two weeks saying I was fine, but in the mean time my inner thighs were red and raw... She went to close to my dermis burning 3 layers with the lipo laser wand/cannula. My legs have pockets of fatty lumps, making them look deformed and because she ripped/dug too deep, lots of my little membranes that kept my skis connected to my thigh muscle were destroy and never reattached so my upper thighs droop.
To make the story short, lol!!! She no longer practices cause so many complaints about her work n ethics. I never wear shorts n always wear biker shorts as bathing suits!!!
So be inform of what type of dr u have n see previous work before letting them touch u!!!! I learned more on the blog site in just a little bit over a month... I wished I would have known of the aftercare... My body never healed properly n I never saw change!!!! Still fat all over n going to Robles with my hand on my heart!!!

Wow I'm just reading this. How did you know that you had internal bleeding in your armpits? Was it something you can feel?

April 17, 2013
I'm light skinned and anemic so I bruise easy, my mom saw the big marks n kind of floating pockets of blood... Thank God she was around n gave me Arnica n cook low sodium to help with the swelling!!!

Oh my god honey I'm sooooo sorry. I hope Robles can fix you up and make you better than ever. My prayers are with you! (((hugs)))

Hi SulyRu
Wow exciting traveling to the DR!! After i had my surgery, i talked to someone close to me that did the same thing. She went to Dr. Robles and told me how much cheaper it was instead of here. After my husband and i did all the calculations, i was like....oh ----! i could have went to the DR!! Anywho, please keep us posted on your journey and surgery. Take lots of pictures!!
