I had my surgery in 2014 and things have gone very well. I do have some issues with skin on my arms but it's not significant and I can hide with sleeves. However, my neck is another story. It's the only part of my body that really is driving me nuts. I'm very self-conscious about it. I am in Houston. Has anyone had a neck lift procedure in Texas? It looks like is 7-12K which I think is pretty high. I've thought about Mexico. I am not planning on having any other plastic surgery.

My sister had a Lifestyle lift. She was happy with the results but said if she knew the truth about recovery she probably wouldn't do it again. They do it while you are awake - cutting and stitching as they go. It took 3 months before she could sleep in her bed and several years later she can still feel tightness behind her ears where they pulled the skin back to smooth out her neck.

I had a neck lift, lower face lift and upper eye lids done in the Dominican Sept 2016 and have fantastic results. Cost $6500 including flights, accommodation, transport etc etc.

Dr Carmina Cardenas just did my neck lift and mastoplexy in Tijuana. She is amazing and so far I love my results. It was around $4500. I was quoted 13,000 in the USA for the same thing.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
