I used Dra. Laura Carmina Cardenas of Beauty Enhance. I had a great experience with her. She treated me exceptionally well, visited me every day in the recovery house for the two full weeks I was there, and provided great follow-up care via email and phone.

I had amazing results and a good experience with Dr Sauceda. He is the type to under promise and over deliver. The photos on his website aren't all that "wow" but real patients are posting pictures on Facebook and his obesity help forum that convinced me. I highly recommend him for a variety of reasons but probably the #1 is that he is absolutely passionate about changing the lives of the people that go to him.

I have gone to two different Plastic Surgeons in Tijuana Mexico, and although the first one had a beautiful state of the arch Facility, cosmed, my results were not all that wonderful.

My second plastic surgery, was with Dr. Victor Gutierrez, as listed my another poster. And I am in full agreement with her assessment of the surgeon. He is a wonderfully gifted surgeon.

Dr. Salvador Medina Sanchez Aka Dr. Medina at Trinity Medical Bariatrics in Tijuana, Mexico did my 360 lower body lift in March 2015. He speaks fluent English, as does his staff. My results are amazing and I had no complications. I am so very happy I found him. In June he will do a breast lift and arm lift. I have full faith in his abilities. Also, he serves as Chief of Plastic Surgery at Tijuana Angeles Hospital. Highly recommend!

So far I have used two one in Tijuana, Dr Salas, my scar is not well done at all and I had no after care, would not recommend.

Second I used Dr Sauceda, very young and pleasant, however I think he does under promise and this ends up as under delivering. I now need a revision because he did not remove enough skin and more skin needs removal for a tighter look.

Also his scars are a cross stitch type so you have a straight scar and crosses over it; not the nicest.

Hi Amazon,

I had a consult with Dr. Sauceda a few weeks ago. I found him to be very pleasant, but was extremely surprised that he seemed unfamiliar with Von Willebrands... even the recommended treatment during surgery. In comparison, I had a totally unplanned phone consult with Dr. Carmena Cardenas last Saturday and she was well versed and familiar with the treatments. Additionally, he made it a point to tell me how African American skin keloids, has poor scar healing, etc. Kind of like he was setting me up for disappointment.... :unsure:

I was very fortunate to have a excellent plastic surgeon. My skin healed beautifully because of the expert internal sutures.

We're trying to research (and possibly work with) the top plastic surgeons in Mexico. I've found that our members are usually right on target when it comes to this kind of info.

Which plastic surgeon in Mexico have you used or are looking to use, in the near future? Please provide all contact info for any plastics surgeon you're recommending.

Alex, any timeframe on whether BariatricPal will partner with plastic surgeons in Mexico? I'll be needing plastics next summer.

@@tspinks06 Have you looked at Dra. Carmina Cardenas yet? She was my surgeon almost 5 years ago for TT and breast lift with augmentation and I'm going back to her in September for a spiral thigh lift. She is now affiliated with BariatricPal, so you may be able to get a special package through the BP coordinators.

      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.
