Anyone Recieved Plastic Surgery In Mexico?



Recommended Posts

Well Dr. Bello is Mexicali is wonderful!! I could not of had better care and already love my results! I know it will take a while for the final outcome but so pleased already. Never met a better more caring doctor ever! He did Lift w/ augmentation and Tummy Tuck with Lipo. I am still in the hospital and will head home on Tuesday.

I am also wondering what the rate is. I am planning on those same procedures. How did they do with pain control after surgery? How long will you have be in the hospital?

Just checking to see how you're doing now. Hope you're doing well and I'm looking forward to pics. Dr Aceves did my sleeve too.

Final results usually are about 6 months but at 6 weeks and 3 months you keep seeing improvement

Hi All,

I am still doing great. Recovery will take up to 5 months. I am honestly seeing improvement from week to week. The cost of my surgery was 10K. He kept me in the hospital an entire week and really took great care of me. I am not going to lie..recovery is tough. it is so worth it in the end though. The incesions were not bad. it is where he ties the stomach muscles that it hurts. i have started walking/jogging again...not quite ready for ab workout yet :o)

I had my surgery done in Acuna Mexico just across the border from Del Rio Texas in July 2012. Awesome doctor and results. My cousin had his surgery first and I had my a few months later. Dr. LUIS Cruz Gandara. Wonderful staff and hospital. Hospital Ejeza. The cost I believe was $7,500. I was in the hospital from Monday to Thursday. I would highly recommend him.

Hi,

Thanks for sharing. When you say "tough", do you mean pain PAIN or just all around soreness or ??? Just curious.

Congratulations! I bet you're gonna look fabulous!

I had test run prior to surgery. Like lab and Xrays. I had the verticle sleeve done and was in the hospital from Monday to Thursday.

I just got a quote from Dr Sauceda in Mexico for a lower body lift and breast lift/ augmentation for $11,200 includes all lab work 3 day hospital stay and 8 days at a recovery hotel nearby plus travel back and forth across the border and up to $600 reimbursement for airfare. I inquired how much just a lower body lift would be and it will be 7,200. I'm still doing research but I will keep you all posted of any additional info I come across.

I know they do that there also. I didn't want to go too deep into Mexico and wanted to know people that actually had surgery there so I felt very confident for many reasons. Good luck.

Actually that's not ever ally unreasonable. It is the higher end of the market but still very much within market range.

      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.
