Plastic Surgery question

[peglynmc 15]

I'm still pre surgery and am having surgery here in the states. My question is has anyone went to the docs in Mexico for their plastics after having gastric bypass here in the states? How did you tell your docs in the states and were they supportive? Thank you

I have plastics in Mexico before my WLS. Back in 2010/2011, I lost 90 pounds "on my own" and went to Mexico for a Tummy Tuck and breast lift with augmentation. I just spoke to my PCP here in the states and she was perfectly fine with it. I had an appointment with her for just two days after I got back to the US. She handled most of my follow-up care and communicated directly with my surgeon in Mexico.

I also had my WLS in Mexico after I regained 80 of those 90 pounds I had lost "on my own". My PCP has handled my follow-up blood work for that.
