I have to agree with you on the straight incisions of Dr Victor Gutierrez and the perfect results of his work. He chooses a persons health and will not do too many dangerous surgical procedures at one time. There is no debate which surgeons work looks the best, however. . . Some people want a ton of work done at one time and can only take off work and travel one time, and feel they will sacrifice straight incisions, and have many procedures at one time just to go ahead and get rid of the extra saggy skin that causes rashes and emotional distress for so many. That is one reason why people choose Dr S and of course it is good to have an alternative surgeon if they choose to go this route.

Before and after arm lift photos. 30 days after surgery. I am loving my results.

What a wonderful goal. I love a firm body and heavy lifting. Keep your goals infront of you and you will be able to achieve anything.

I too would recommend Dr Victor Gutierrez or Dr Sauceda. Dr Victor Gutierrez uses twilight sedation as well, and I woke up feeling refreshed and not in any pain either. It is good to be able to recommend Doctors we know will put your health above anything else. I know Dr G did this for me. I am sure Dr S does too. Dr Gutierrez learned how to sew when he was a young boy. He was taught by his mother and all his stitches had to be perfect. We talked about this for a long time because my mom is a seamstress and taught me to sew perfectl stitches too. His incisions and sutures are perfect' because it is something he has been doing all his life. Crossing the boarder was very easy and the drive to the San Diego airport to board the plane did not take long at all. It is something to consider. But other than that, you are safe and your plastic surgery results will come out beautiful with either plastic surgeon.

Yes I was in recovery for 7 days after my first surgery. If you are having major surgery, like a lower body lift, I would really recommend that you stay in recovery at least 7 days or more. I am glad I did. For both of my surgeries, I arrived a few days before my surgery so that I could enjoy Tijuana. The doctor will make sure you are will taken care of.

When I went to Tijuana to have surgery with Dr Victor Gutierrez, I stayed in recovery for 7 days when I had my lower body lift, breast lift, and butt lift with 24 hours nursing care. I was taken care of beautifully. Dr Gutierriez is unbelievable when it come to his bedside manner, and he is a nice man. I traveled alone but was taken care of every step of the way. Last month when I went, I only stayed in recovery 1 day for my arm lift and my thigh lift. I could take care of myself. I traveled alone again, and went to a hotel for the remainder of my recovery. I chose to stay a long time in the hotel, because I have young kids, and I did not want to go home too early, because I know my self. I know I would start using my arms before I needed to because of them. All of my results have come out beautiful. RealSelf.com has more reviews on Dr Victor Gutierrez if you are interested in reading, as well as more before and after pictures.

I know you are excited!!!

I hope everything went well.

Congratulations!! I am sure all will go well. I am very excited for you!!

Wow!! You really look amazing!!!

Anytime - No problem. You are very welcome! :-)

Thank you so much! Congratulations on getting WLS. I am sure you will be at your goal weight in no time. Dr Victor Gutierrez quoted my price to me back in 2012, so I am sure the prices are not the same. However, most people that get this type of surgery in Tijuana, México are paying anywhere between $10 - 13 thousand dollars. Sometimes a little less and sometimes a little more give or take a few thousand dollars. It is very affordable and something I have never regretted. I wish you much success!

After weight loss surgery, many people are choosing to have plastic surgery. I was determine to look my best, especially after working so hard to lose weight for many years. Everyone deserved to look their best. I know I wanted to. Of course price is usually a concern, and prices vary depending on the surgical procedure. Prices in Mexico are excellent. First find an excellent plastic surgeon like I did that gives excellent results, with excellent prices, with excellent experience and with excellent care.

I totally want a breast lift. Can you share any comments or recommendations picture and pricing ?! I had a breast lift with no implants last year, because this suited my active life style and I am a little old fashion. Implants may be something I do in the future, but for now, I only wanted a lift although I had very little fat tissue after my weight loss. My plastic surgeon was honest with me as to how my breast would look. Trust me, I did not give him much to work with, but still ended up a with symmetrical perky full C cup. A really good plastic surgeon is someone who can work with absolutely anything. — touch it, change it, mend it, mold it, and somehow is able to make it beautiful. That is what mine did to me.

Yes I sure will:-)

CGJANE, Wow! You really look great!! I know you are, and should be very proud of your body. You have accomplished so much! Anyway, I think nature wants our thighs to be curvy. You look Super! Thanks for sharing.

I was taught many of these same concepts and applied them in my gym workouts. I am happy to say lifting very heavy weights, alternating upper and lower body and doing cardio such as swimming and jogging, I have had excellent results and can now see them after my plastic surgery. Good advice on the abs. I was wondering why my waist line was expanding. No more heavy weight in that area for me. Plus upping my protein. I will be happy to be able to go back to the gym.

Ok thanks.

No, i paid for my own hotel.

I was provided a arm lift garment by my plastic surgeon, however I need another one. Any suggestions where I can find a really good arm compression garment?

After my recent arm lift surgery, I know I did not experience pain and it is hard to remember not to use your arms until they are healed. Use aggressive scar treatment methods as soon as possible. I am already using scar treatment oils and silicone for my healing, to have the thinnest, lightest scars possible. I strengthen my core and leg muscles, that way I did not have to use my arms for getting out of bed, sitting down or standing up. You will be fine! And I am sure, like all of us, you will love your results. :-)

For my lower body lift, butt lift and breast lift, I stayed 7 days in recovery with. 24 nursing care, but for my thigh and arm lift, I spent one night in recovery and 13 days at the hotel. I felt I wanted extra recovery time, before I went home, therefore stayed longer. I wanted to avoid using my arms or my legs, but I could take care of my self, plus the doctor and his assistant came to visit me daily. The full service hotel had room service, so I was very well fed and taken care of. I stayed so long, everyone was sad to see me go, plus I made so many new friends. Everyone there is so generous and helpful. You will not have to worry about your luggage. IT will be carried for you. The airport shuttle service, which the doctor arranges, will be there to pick you up and take you back to the airport. You never have to carry your luggage, even when you get to the airport. Tell them you need a wheelchair, and they will carry and do everything for you until you reach your destination city.

You are exactly right. He has a San Diego phone number, so anytime you need to contact him, international telephone service is not needed. We can just make a toll-free or a US phone call directly.

If you need anymore information, please feel free to message me. It is absolutely no problem :-)

Congratulations to you both!!. Please keep up updated.
