Hi Im getting my TT, BBL, and Lipo on the April 1. Did the lipo hurt? I hear thats the worst part, but vaser is not suppose to be as bad.
ORIGINAL POST

VASER Lipo 360 And Breast implants (silicone 375cc)

I have always been a little chubby and had a hard time keeping up with getting the shape and flat tummy I wanted. I knew lipo would be a good option for me. Second, I have NO kids but my breast were never round or perky, I was a C cup but barely. My breast were also far apart and not rounded at all, more tubular.
First I had started off by scheduling Lipo in Miami Florida with Dr. Alexander Zuri. He is AMAZING however I had to choose between breast or lipo. I knew someone who went to Dominican Republic to Dr Luis Mejia and said so many wonderful things about him and also informed me I could get both surgeries.
After that I had looked into other surgeons in Dominican Republic but I kept going back to the thought of Mejia.
He has really good reviews and I can NOT find any deaths/reoccurring issues after his surgeries.
I will admit I was nervous because going out of country is tricky and scary because you won’t know anyone or anywhere around the area.
I ended up scheduling my surgery for June 19, 2019 and sending in my $300 deposit about a month prior to surgery.
Now it’s the day before surgery and I arrived in DR, I did have a friend come with me and I paid for everything for them the entire time, you really have to have someone there.
The day before surgery I met with Dr Luis Mejia and I went into his office to discuss exactly what I wanted. I ended up adding VASER Lipo to my surgery because he explained to me it is much safer and melts the fat better than normal lipo, so that did make my price go up a little than what was quoted. I had all my bloodwork the day before surgery and I went to a hotel and at 7AM the next morning I woke up and went back to the clinic for surgery.
By the way the clinic is beautiful and clean.
He marked my body with the marker, I saw a lung specialist (because I was a weed smoker, was 300$ extra) but I wanted to be extra safe. I went in the back room with a nurse where I received my IV and a blue pill. About 15 minutes after i took the blue pill I was taken back to the Operating room where I would have my surgery. I remember looking around at Mejia’s team of amazing nurses and anestesiologist and thats it.
Next thing I know I woke up and was in a faja in recovery.
So ya basically that’s it. I don’t remember slowly going to sleep, it just happened. I dont remember surgery or anything. It was so easy and when I woke up the next morning Dr Mejia brought me a rose and said hello and to see how I was doing.
I did a LOT of research and I found a great recovery house literally 1 block from the Clinic at only 85/night and they cooked every meal/ reminded me to take my meds, and helped me goto the bathroom/wash myself.
As far as POST OP goes, I was in pain a little but of course he gave me paid meds to take for a week that helped a lot. I also took my antibiotics for a week too so I wouldn’t get infection. I will say I thought I was prepared but let me tell you the recovery is a long and slow process. I’m 22 days (just over 3 weeks) POST OP now and I’m still sore.
Im feeling AMAZING and so far I’m literally in love with my new body, but of course I’m still healing.
If I thing of anything else I will add it to the review later.
De Mejia and his team is amazing and I felt so safe and cared for there. Truly an amazing Dr.
Not to mention he is BOARD certified.
