Dominican Republic Plastic Surgery

hey guys!

im 10 months post op from my sleeve.

i lost 116lbs.

i started at 273lbs & im 157 now.

my goal is to be 135lbs so i have 22 more lbs to go.

since losing all the weight,

my boobs sag a lot & have deflated a lot and

my stomach is wrinkly & has a little sag.

so i want a breast lift and augmentation. i also want a full tummy tuck & fat transferred into my butt. the fat transfer will come from my back, waist & stomach & put it all in my butt to give myself the booty ive always wanted!

ive decided to start looking into plastic surgery.

i want to travel to DR to have it done.

has anyone looked into plastic surgery in DR?

what was your experience if you had it done?

how much and what did you have done?

when i say insecure, i dont mean it negatively but if someones is wearing spanx, its to hide something. if youre hiding a body part, its because of insecurities. if you werent insecure and trying to hide it, you wouldnt wear spanx. thats why i want plastic surgery. i dont need extra skin on my boobs or tummy. i wanna look good naked as i do with clothes on. i want to wear a 2 piece and be comfortable. :)

as far as different country, its still a hospital! not like its an apartment.

Insecure? I don't think so...not me! I made my statement based on the comments above. It seemed the issue of cost was more important than some other factors. I certainly realize there is a chance for negligence right here in the U. S. of A.

Oh i would love to wear a two piece just once in my life!!!

But I'm over 40... I don't know if I'm too old to aim for that...

Gosh I would LOVE that :)

My cousin had a procedure done in Mexicali and she looks great, she never has really had a shape being that she carried fat around her abdomen and arms and back and had no butt and looked very straight (no hips, boyish figure) the Doctor she went to performed a liposculpture and took fat from her abdomen and back areas and sculpted her a knock out body and gave her a booty. She now has an hour glass figure, a flat tummy and a butt. I went with her for the consultation so I met the Doctor as well because I plan on getting some fat transferred into my boobs and butt once I lose a good amount of weight. Are you ready for the shocker??? the procedure cost $2,500 I say it is money well spent to have a barbie like figure.

WOW!!!!! I swear this is like the craziest thing that has happened to me in a long time! here I am literally an hour before logging ton to verticlesleevetalk.com researching plastics in the Dominican Republic. I've lost 95 lbs so far and have another 40lbs to go to get to my goal weight, but already I've got the saggy skin on my belly, inner thighs and breasts. Seeing this post made me soooo happpyyyyyy :) as I too have the same concerns and fears.

BTW...BabyPink....I think I know exactly who u are lol ;)^_^:P

Anywho....I've got a cousin in the Dominican Republic at this very moment who had a tummy tuck, breast lift, and lipo with Dr. Lopez Collado. She is beyond pleased with her results so far. She is also beyond pleased with the care and attention she has been provided with. Honestly, I would love to be able to get my plastics done here in US and not have to leave the country, but unfortunately there is no way I would be able to afford it. I've heard horror stores of plastics in DR....I've heard horror stories about plastics in the US....it's a risk you take no matter where the surgery is performed :unsure:

I just need to get this extra skin off my body to feel complete. I still feel like a fat girl with all this excess skin hanging around everywhere and I wont be completely satisfied until its off. I've contacted Dr. Lopez Collado. He's requested I send him photos so he can take a look at my problem areas and be able to provide me with a quote....just gotta grow the balls to take nude photos lol :tongue2:

Curios, how much would all that cost in the DR?

Ive gotta send him the pictures so he can give me a quote :) but my cousin paid $4500

OK, about the same in Mexico I think. Is it because you have family there in DR that you'd rather go there than Mexico? I have family in Mexico, I should have them set up a bed and breakfast and aftercare place for anyone who needs a place to stay after their surgery in Mexico! lol

Check out DR1 for whats happenin in the DR................the last couple of times there It felt like a bad trip to China...............

I wanna be scuplted too... But that one come until 2014. By then I would have all of my weight off and the finances.. I think we should make a group effort to get it done together.. if we can. That would be awesome.

now that i think of it, i guess i am getting sculpted because im having a fat transfer. im going to tell him to take from my waist to have a hour glass shape & from my back & is placing it in my butt. im 154 right now. i want to be 135lbs. i figure whatever he takes from my belly from a tuck will leave me at about 130lbs assuming ill have a flatter tummy then.
