what was the recovery like? (pain level, time etc?) how long were you in the DR for? how did you arrange the surgery? (like are you fluent in spanish?)
Recovery is hell. It was horrible. You have to wear your faja to keep the swelling down but it's tight hot and itchy. Anything that touches your skin feels like fire. You will be completely miserable for 3 months and uncomfortable for another 3 months. I was in the DR for a week. Had my surgery the same day I landed. I set it up by emailing the doctor and answering a few questions and sending some pictures and that's how she gave me the estimate. I have a small frame so I got a low quote. Her assistant speaks perfect English and her English is pretty okay too. They are use to dealing with people who travel so the language issue is not a problem.
If you are really interested I would advise going to RealSelf and read all the information and reviews. Once you find a few doctors you like. Join their FB groups where you can talk to the people who have had surgery preformed by that doctor. It's the best way to gain information.
. Had a chick want to fight me and had a chick get utterly traumatized by my presents and spend 2 months talking about me. I had not one conversation with any of these women.
What's funny is that I don't think my butt is THAT big. I still look like the same small girl to me just with a better shape. 
But again I don't think it's THAT big. But just having a smaller waist will make a big difference overall. Just letting you know what comes with it. You'd be surprise at the reactions you get. But I hope it works out for you it's what you truly want. I highly recommend it for the brave.
I don't have the time to be doing all of that.
I can't be doing your makeup every time we go out. 
the same thick eyebrows the same ombré lips the same lashes even the same damn poses lol. I hate this copy cat generation we live in.
