02 VLOG My SURGERY DAY in Dominican Republic l Medical Tourism l Cosmetic Plastic Surgery Abroad

This is part 2 of a 3 part VLOG mini series where my family and I take a vacation and later I undergo a cosmetic procedure (plastic surgery).
Part 1 Before Surgery: • 01 VLOG Our Family's F...
Part 3 After Surgery: • 03 What happened after...
I had been wanting to get a reduction for over 3 years with Dr. Jean Paul Giudicelli (Dr. G) in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. I had struggled with years of back pain and being uncomfortable in my own skin. About 2 years ago I had put down my deposit and planned to go when I was hit by a car a few months later. It seemed like it would never happen.
However, when my family moved to Cabrera, Dominican Republic I became very hopeful (especially since my deposit had not expired).
Dominican Republic (and Colombia) is known worldwide for having some of the top medical facilities and surgeons that specialize in cosmetic and plastic surgery. People come from the United States, Canada, Russia, and many more countries for what is known as "medical tourism." This can include dental procedures, cosmetic surgery, and plastic surgery. More recently there have been many people coming to get the popular bbl (Brazilian butt lift). Although, I am not getting a bbl I thought it was important to mention.
People question sometimes is it safe to get plastic surgery or cosmetic abroad? My answer is YES and NO. Make sure you do you research, have a consultation, and meet with a board certified plastic surgeon just like you would in your home country! Treat medical tourism like you would a medical procedure in your home country.
