I'm looking to have my plastic surgery done. Has anyone used Dr. Luis Suarez Avalos is a Board Certified Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeon? and what does it mean to be a member of Amercian Society of Plastic Surgeons?

  • American Society of Plastic Surgeons (Member ID 37477)
  • Mexican Board of Plastic Aesthetic and Reconstructive Surgeons
  • Mexican Association of Plastic, Aesthetic and Reconstructive Surgeons in Mexico City.
  • Mexican Association of Plastic, Aesthetic and Reconstructive Surgeons in Baja California.
  • Mexican Board of General surgery in Mexico.
Thanks Everyone~!

I don't know anything about Dr. Avalos. I can only talk about my own plastic surgery experience. I had an extended Tummy Tuck, breast lift w/ augmentation, and Lipo sculpting with Dr. Carmina Cardenas in August of 2011 and it was a fantastic experience all around. Dr. Cardenas is an amazing person. I felt so cared for and taken care of. I had to be in Tijuana for 14 days because I had so much done at once and she came to check on me at the recovery house every single day (except one when she had to go out of town). She even followed up with me for MONTHS via email after I came home. After I am sleeved and re-lose all the weight I've gained since my tummy tuck, I will 100% be going back to Dr. Cardenas if I need an revisions or additional work (considering a thigh lift).

I just recently had arm lift surgery in Tijuana, Mexico with awesome results. I used a board certified plastic surgeon as well. Arms Lift surgery is not easy, and extra care must be taken durning this particular procedure, and especially durning the sewing. Sutures must be perfect to obtain the best results. I have more updated arm pictures on page 4 in this thread.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
