Anyone Recieved Plastic Surgery In Mexico?



Recommended Posts

Well Dr. Bello is Mexicali is wonderful!! I could not of had better care and already love my results! I know it will take a while for the final outcome but so pleased already. Never met a better more caring doctor ever! He did Lift w/ augmentation and Tummy Tuck with Lipo. I am still in the hospital and will head home on Tuesday.

I am also wondering what the rate is. I am planning on those same procedures. How did they do with pain control after surgery? How long will you have be in the hospital?

Just checking to see how you're doing now. Hope you're doing well and I'm looking forward to pics. Dr Aceves did my sleeve too.

Final results usually are about 6 months but at 6 weeks and 3 months you keep seeing improvement

Hi All,

I am still doing great. Recovery will take up to 5 months. I am honestly seeing improvement from week to week. The cost of my surgery was 10K. He kept me in the hospital an entire week and really took great care of me. I am not going to lie..recovery is tough. it is so worth it in the end though. The incesions were not bad. it is where he ties the stomach muscles that it hurts. i have started walking/jogging again...not quite ready for ab workout yet :o)

I had my surgery done in Acuna Mexico just across the border from Del Rio Texas in July 2012. Awesome doctor and results. My cousin had his surgery first and I had my a few months later. Dr. LUIS Cruz Gandara. Wonderful staff and hospital. Hospital Ejeza. The cost I believe was $7,500. I was in the hospital from Monday to Thursday. I would highly recommend him.

Hi,

Thanks for sharing. When you say "tough", do you mean pain PAIN or just all around soreness or ??? Just curious.

Congratulations! I bet you're gonna look fabulous!

I had test run prior to surgery. Like lab and Xrays. I had the verticle sleeve done and was in the hospital from Monday to Thursday.

I just got a quote from Dr Sauceda in Mexico for a lower body lift and breast lift/ augmentation for $11,200 includes all lab work 3 day hospital stay and 8 days at a recovery hotel nearby plus travel back and forth across the border and up to $600 reimbursement for airfare. I inquired how much just a lower body lift would be and it will be 7,200. I'm still doing research but I will keep you all posted of any additional info I come across.

I know they do that there also. I didn't want to go too deep into Mexico and wanted to know people that actually had surgery there so I felt very confident for many reasons. Good luck.

Actually that's not ever ally unreasonable. It is the higher end of the market but still very much within market range.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
