It really depends in the surgeon and where in Mx you have your procedure. The range is $4500 -$10k. Surgeon and location factor into the price. You can expect to pay more in Puerto Vallarta or Cancun. Surgeons who've been at it longer or use bigger hospitals often command a bigger price as well. I am only scratching the surface. There are so many contributing factors. I've learned so much in my research and from people here who're sharing their experiences...

I'm SLEEVED!!!!!!!!!! Everything went well yesterday. I was in a lot of pain afterward but feeling much better today. Dr Lopez and Ortiz are very nice . The nurses at the hospital don't speck much English but I download a translator on my phone ( very useful). Can't wait to get some broth today as I am so Hungry. I do my leak test later today so I will keep everyone posted.. ........ New beginnings:)

Keeping hydrated. Exercise. Possibly cosmetic surgery.
