Ariel center in Tijuanna?



Recommended Posts

I had my sleeve at OCC in TJ MXN, and was wondering if anyone had plastics there, or the Ariel center I think is what it's called.

I had plastic surgery in Tijuana, Mexico and had fantastic results. There are so many plastic surgeons in Tijuana, one must do a lot if research before making a final decision. It is good that you are asking about this place, because you always want to get positive reviews, and results of before and after pictures of the doctors work. After tons of research I chose Dr Victor Gutierrez. You have some doctors there that only care about a quick dollar, but others really take time with their patients and really care deeply about their patients results. That is the kind of doctor I had. I wish you tremendous success in your search. Smile.

Sweet Pea,

Just curious but how much weight did you lose after getting rid of the extra skin?

Sweet Pea, Just curious but how much weight did you lose after getting rid of the extra skin?

That is a tricky question. Smile

The reason I say that is because some of my skin that was taken off durning my lower body lift was used for my butt lift to give me more volume. I was 142lbs before surgery. 3 weeks after surgery, I was 131lbs. That was due to not having a big appetite, a tiny tummy from my WLS and the compression garment. Also a lot of my swelling went down as well. Durning that early recovery period, I was trying to eat as much as possible which helps the body to heal, and is not the time to be loosing weight, but I know I lost a pound or two. My before and after pictures shows I had quite a bit of skin that was removed.

Sweet pea you look amazing! I feel like my body is super soft and saggy but overall it doesn't look hangy but it's not firm. Great job on your makeover.

Sweet Pee,

I love to share information about plastic surgery, however the best way to get accurate information about pricing about procedures, I would advise contacting The plastic surgery office directly. They are very nice and contact information can be found on the web site. I hope this helps. Smile

      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.
