Thigh lift in Mexico? Other countries?



Recommended Posts

I feel like this has come at the worst possible time in my life. I'm losing my health insurance in the US due to quitting my job to start a new life in Canada. Regardless, getting plastics covered in my case would be a long shot.

So, 120 lbs lost now, and it's getting hard to stuff these baggy thighs into my jeans. The sag is strong with me.

Looking to Mexico or other countries for low-cost thigh lifts. However, it's proven difficult to find doctors that specialize in this or that show before and afters. Most of their websites are geared towards the more popular post bariatric ops, like tummy tucks and boob jobs.

Can anyone give a reference specifically for thigh lifts outside of the US/Canada? Failing that, a surgeon near Toronto that may offer low cost services?

A thigh lift is a complicated surgery usually with lackluster results.

You are not going to find many doctors that do it, fewer before and after and even less likely to be low cost.

If my thighs looked like her before I would be happy.

Yes please post! What was your cost and what type of incision did you have?

I can refer you to our FB group if you like. I personally did not get a thigh lift I had other surgeries done however there are some photos of a thigh lift on the page.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
