I know there are people who have and had a great experience. I had mine in Puerto Vallarta with Dr. Saldona it was great, professional and no pain, I had breast lift and implants. I am thinking about TTuck with Dr. Sauceda in Monterrey only because its way closer for me I am in north Texas. The lift and implants was nothing (and I was cut and sewn you would think that would hurt but no) the lipo sucked it was painful I will not get lipo because of the pain yuck.

How much was the cost for the lift and implants? Does that include your flight and stay? How long was post op stay?

I went to Dr Victor Gutierrez in Tijuana. I had a lower body lift, breast and butt lift. He is great! You can look at his web site or call to get more information about him. My experience was outstanding! My cost did not include air fare. Post op, I stayed 7 days in the recovery clinic with 24 nurse care.

I am going to Dr Sauceda next week! More info to follow...

I think there are a number of good surgeons to choose from Mexico, Columbia, Costa Rico. I guess my final reason for choosing Dr S is that his patients really feel cared for by him and his staff. I value that highly. I will be down there for 12 days since i am doing several procedures at once.

In the USA, they were gonna send me home the same day as the surgery and i just never could get comfortable with that.

What are you all having done? What was your starting weight and whats your weight now? how much are you paying?

I totally understand about not being sent home the same day. That is crazy to me too! I totally agree with choosing a surgeon in a different country.

I know you are getting excited! Your surgery is only days away!!!! Please keep us updated. I am very excited for you!!!

I'm still on the fence on whether to get my plastics done in Mexico or here in the states. I'll be looking for your updates. Wishing you an easy and speedy recovery!
