I was wondering has anyone gone back to mexico for plastic surgery?

Many people went to mexico for the band what about afterwards for cosmetic surgery ..If yes what doctors thanks....

I know of one poster: MariposaBella

You might have to PM her. I don't know how often she is here and she might miss this thread.

dr.luis suarez is in tj. he does my botox. he does lots of plastic surgery. he has a very nice hospital/clinic. they do the surgery there. good luck

I went to Dr. Martin Yanez also in TJ, I had my surgery back in Feb. 21.

What kind of surgery did you guys have in TJ? I am curious as to how much you had to pay. Thanks for the info.

I met a lady at the doctors office last time I went that went and had a tummy tuck and boob job for $6500.

esmerela that dr is now in troulbe for seeing pt in california for pre opt screenings and follow up care althought he is lic in mexico ...he saw pt in californis he has no lic in californis ..i was looking into him.....

He is but I saw him in Mexico and he doesn't have problems over there. My coworks went before me and had their after care here until he had to stop, he wasn't doing surgeries here only after care and that doesn't affect any work that he did to me so I was fine seeing him. I was aware but still went because of his work I am happy. I had extended tummy tuck, breast lift with implants and lipo in the back.

esmerelda thats great i did not mean to imply anything bad i just thought he wasnt practicing .....do you have before and after pics.... also any web site on him?

I'm returning to Mexico for surgery in June! I can't wait. I'm having a 360 body lift. I'll be happy to post pics when I get back.

nancy who are you going to ???? dont leave us hanging !!!!!!!!

thats so great !!!!!!!! i am very excited for you !

Hey all! I had plastic surgery in Monterrey Mexico in March. I just posted my pictures on the website hubby made for me. I had brachioplasty (armlift), breast lift, breast augmentation with silicone implants, tummy tuck, lipo of top part of tummy and back, and a brazilian butt lift with injected fat taken out with lipo. I did all of these at once with Dr. Sauceda who is board certified plastic surgeon. He was wonderful!! I had lost 85 lbs and was sick of looking at the hanging bat wings and cow udders for breasts!!

I now have my curves back and feel great. The recovery was really easy.

All of this cost me $12,000 which included my airfare and hotel for 10 nights, 2 nights in the hospital, and my after care garments.

I would do it again in a heartbeat!! You are welcome to view my pics both before and afters, surgery blog, etc at

My Mexico Plastic Surgery Journey!

Feel free to email me if you have questions about Mexico. I was banded there so wasn't afraid to get plastics there at all. The doctor came to the hotel every day to see me and check my incisions. The pain was minimal!

Take care,

Misty

Misty, you look great. I was hoping on doing the tt after my loss is done. I went to Monterrrey with Dr. Rumbout. I will definalty keep your surgeon in mid when the time comes. I wonder if the price is dependent on how much work you want done. I would probly want the tt with lipo and maybe a breast lift with implants.

Hi, I am glad you have a great experience in Monterrey. I have heard only the best about your band doc! I chose to cross the border last year with Dr. Alvarez just because I could drive there myself.

As for Dr. Sauceda, his prices are very competitive and his work is extraordinary. I have a friend who is there right now recovering from a full face lift after losing 80 lbs and she looks absolutely amazing!!! I swear he took 20 years off of her. You won't be disappointed with him and his clinic is very near where your doctor is located. Isn't he by the Galleria in Monterrey??

Good luck in your journey!
