  1. Hi Smileyflower24 and Savingface,, I had a full Mommy Makeover and face surgery (rhinoplasty, breast lift with implants, tummy tuck and liposuction of the abdomen, abdominal flanks and inner and outer thighs, and back), I didn't have it done in one time (i mean in one surgery) because it would be too much but I did all my surgeries during a trip of 18 days and in 2 steps. For my surgery I travelled to South America at MakeoverTravel clinic (because it was much cheaper than in the US),,,my surgeons did all my surgeries in two steps. The first surgery was my tummy tuck and liposuction,, because these surgeries were longer to heal. and 10 days after my first surgery I had my rhinoplasty and breast lift with implants done. It was a lot for one trip but that's the way to go for sure! I had the surgery in November 2010 and I decided to do it after i had lost 100 pounds. The surgery was hard and the recovery was painful but it was worth every penny and every pain. I think my breasts hurt worse than my stomach but today I am very happy with my results,, I don't think my stomach has ever been this flat before. It is my favorite part of my body now. After my surgery, as I had so many procedures at once, I opted to stay 2 nights in the hospital after my tummy tuck and one night after my breast surgery. My advise for this kind of surgery is: Make sure to have someone with you for several days at least to help you get around and generally take care of you. This is a pretty major surgery and you can't straighten up or lift anything as heavy as a gallon of milk for a week (see how easy it is to forget the details!!!). I went abroad for my surgery but I went through a medical agency because this is the best way to be sure that you are going with the right surgeon and because they provide you with all the services and care you need after your surgery with a personal assistant or nurse. I still can't say enough, this is some of the best money I have ever spent. I paid $ 8,500 for all my procedures rhinoplasty, breast implants with breast lift, full liposuction and tummy tuck, the company included in my package 18 days in a nice hotel, and all the service with my bilingual assistant, local transportation and all the blood test before each surgery. It was a very affordable cost ( the cost of this procedure in the US would be around $30.000). I think that travelling abroad is the best option when you can't afford such surgery in your country and you don't want to wait years before you can do it,, the most complicated when you go abroad is to choose the right company or dr. I personally had a great experience with MakeoverTravel,, the staff is very professional and they work with skilled surgeons but I know that others medical operators such as Sensualbodydream or Cosmetic vacations provide good options for american people who are looking for a good medical center outside the US at affordable costs.
