Anyone Recieved Plastic Surgery In Mexico?



Recommended Posts

Dr. Bello was not the cheapest nor was he the most expensive. I trust Dr. Aceves and this is the doctor he recommends so that is good for me. I will make sure I let you all know how it goes!

How did you get in contact with Dr. Bello? I tried doing some Internet research and didn't come up with much.

Hi,

I went through Nina with Dr. Aceves. He just called me and we talked and talked. I sent him pictures and he called me back again to discuss. Let me know if you need her email or i also have Dr. Bellos too. They gave me emails of past patients and I emailed them. They were wonderful and love the treatment and outcome of their surgeries.

If you do not want to go to Mexico' date=' New York Eye and Ear hospital in Manhattan, is a world renowned for it's head and neck plastics, developed a cosmetic surgery fellowship that offers low cost surgery 3000-4000 per procedure. The surgeons are all board certified, have already done a plastics fellowship and have decided to super specialize in cosmetics. i had a breast lift for 3000 and a lower body lift (Full circumferance zipper) AND a Tummy Tuck for 3000. I did this after a big weight loss (that failed a year later) and although I have gained the weight back, I don't have saggy boobs or an apron. They did a phenomenal job.[/quote']

Please send me the info

Tell me about your cosmetic surgery; did you get it done in the US or Mexico? Did insurance cover if in the US? If so ; on what grounds?

And are you satisfied with the results?

I had my surgery in Acuna, Mexico. After crossing the border the hospital is just a few blocks. My doctor had performed SURGERY on my cousin who also had no complications & has done very well. He knows of others tht used same doctor w no complications. Its a private hosp owned by some doctors. My doctors name was Dr. Luis Alberto Cruz Gandara, he went by Dr. cruz. There is a plastic surgeon that is a doctor in this hosp. (sry I cant think of his name) he said he ws very good.

If you're interest I can give you his number & you can tell him I recomended. Just let me know.

So did you fly into Mexico for the surgery or fly into California and drive over the border? I think I am the most nervous about flying to Mexico than anything else. I would rather fly to another state and then cross the border by car. Did they provide the transportation?

Thanks!

I live in Texas & its about a 6-7 hour drive. So we drove in. Its real close to Del Rio so we stayed 1 night there & drove in for surgery.

S.O.P. for TJ. surgeries is a driver picks you up @ San Diego airport. And they drop you back there before your return flight.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
