  1. Had my procedures done Monday and the kind doctor did a revision of my fleur de lis scar and a bit of lipo to my mons. Sooo happy with my results. Was barely a 32b before I think I’ll be a 32c now She used 310 cc implants

    Is this price outrageous? (NYC!)

    Too much! Come to my doc in Mexico! She’s known as the tummy tuck queen and is every bit worth what I paid! I had a lower body lift that included nine procedures and a week stay at her recovery house with around the clock nurses and a hospital stay with meds and food and such. Www.beauty-enhance.com

    Arm Lift and Tummy Tuck

    The place I went to had a recovery house included in my surgery package. I stayed for seven days.

    They will pay for a panniculectomy anything other than that is considered cosmetic. A panni is quite different from a tummy tuck or body lift. The focus of the panni is to take off the extra skin. The tummy tuck is more focused on taking off the skin and making the abdomen more aesthetically pleasing to the eye. I just paid 11 k for my body lift in Mexico with Dr Cardenas. It was actually seven procedures in one. It even helped with my thighs. best wishes to you!! Congrats in your loss!
  10. I had my front one for about two weeks and the back one for almost a month. I live only 90 min from Mexico so I drove. The people I m we that flew in did by home with their Drains.
  11. Not really as it included my whole package with a week stay at the recovery house with around the clock care from nurses. I stayed one night in the hospital. All fees for the surgeon and anesthesiologist, pain pump, meds, food, etc... what I got for my package would easily be 20 k in the states. I wasn’t looking for a provider who was a cheaper alternative, I was focused on quality of care and best outcomes. I have seen other women go to Mexico and pay less. I’ve also seen horrendous botched surgeries. I had such a wonderful experience and it was worth every penny.
  12. Still numb mostly in my back. Swelling stays because there is a redistribution of fluids in the body and it’s part of our natural inflammatory response. I was told real results would be most visible by three months out. I’m getting boobs and arms next. Then thighs after that. This was my first surgery and being that it was seven procedures rolled into one surgery it has been a doozy. The surgeon told me that the thigh surgery will be a hard recovery. Not looking forward to going through that. I am so very glad the extra water helped with the faja situation. You go girl! Keep your head up!
  13. Thank you. Ya I lost about ten more lbs. I’m still swollen not sure how much more will come off. I tried wearing jeans the other day. What a weird sensation having my hip bones poking out. I’ve always worn waist high jeans and this low rise stuff is new to me. Still trying to adjust.
  14. Hang in there girl! These difficult days will pass!! Here’s my updated pic.
  15. Great results!!! Splinting with a pillow over your abdominal area should help some. You sound like you may possibly be a bit low bp wise from the fainting issue. I was the same. Make sure you drink plenty of fluids especially before take the faja off. And sit for a few min after taking it off to let your body adjust a bit. It’s a horrible feeling. I hope the best and a speedy recovery to u!
