Get botox while I'm in mexico for sleeve surgery?



Recommended Posts

I was wondering after I get my sleeve surgery is there anyway I can get Botox or fillers on my face? I really need fillers under my eyes because eye bags are horrible and I'm sure it would be cheaper there.

I got Botox and was extremely pleased. My Cordinator took my daughter and me one day.. I don't know how to recommend anyone because it was a dr friend of hers.

I have had my teeth whitened in TJ. You will spend 1/3 of the cost. Here in the states I was quoted $550. In TJ at Dent-Art I paid about $150

They will pick you up in their shuttle and drive you to their facility. I would definitely use them again.

For botox and fillers, my girlfriend who lives in San Diego has used both Dr Juan Carlos Fuentes and Dr Ariel Ortiz at the Obesity Control Center. I have no clue what she pays, but she loves the results

Botox is FUN. I wouldn't pair it with major surgery though.

Honestly, I don't have one certain reason, I just wouldn't. It's just adding another factor... one more thing to heal up from I guess.

Oh ok.. Ya skeered me there! It definitely won't work for those who have a rough recovery, I guess. From what I read there are quite a few who are feeling awful and would not even be able to make it around TJ let alone off to another dr appt.

I feel VERY fortunate

When I call to schedule my surgery I will ask and see. If they could do it in the same hospital that would be awesome.

My dermatologist in the states Dr Kim here in Tacoma would disagree with you on that.

I would rather combine what I can while I'm down there because I don't plan on going back so since its cheaper for fillers etc. down there then I want to go ahead and get it all at one time.

When you can get away with spending $299 on botox versus $700 like I have spent in the past?

My answer is YES.

By the way...you should also look into Botox in your armpits. I have had it done for the past two years for excessive sweating and it has been a saving grace. No more ruining shirts

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

      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! 😞
