WORTH IT$3,500
About 4 years ago, i had lipposuction done, and the fat inserted into my gluteal area, i did not like the results, because it did not seem as if though anything was there at all.
Afer about one year i decided to get buttock implants, i took some underwear i use to wear that had the padden in them to my consultation and told the doctor how i wanted my buttock to look, he told me they should look bigger than what i was wearing. I was able to see them for myself all i remember him saying was that mines were a 250 not sure if that was the size or what. The procedure was done same day, i was happy with the results at least 80%.
After the swelling wwent down and time pass, they did not look like the underwear i used to wear with the padden, because, while i use light clothing, soft dresses, my butt looks nice and sexy. If i decide to put on some jeans then that was the problem i had to go back to my underwear for a much bigger rounder butt, theres nothing like a sexy butt in some jeans.
Can the implants i have in now, be removed and bigger ones placed in the sme area? would that be a problem for me?

i have nothing against tijuana,i go there all the time. but i wouldn't recommend you get procedures done there.although it is way cheaper i had a friend who got her boobs done for $2000 and they came out looking deformed.once i heard that i never even thought about having things done there.but its ultimately up to you.good luck with your decisions.

I'am extremely picki person, with anything i do. I dont take no short answers or excuses for nothing. Although you dont know me at all, if i went to tj, then it was good. I cant speak for all doctors i can only speak for mines.. a lot of people dont do their homework, ahead of time and they end messed up. I did. I was very carefull about everything. I checked credentials, visited the office, looked at the surgery room, spoke to the anesthegiologist, oh yes baby, touching me i checked untill i could not check no more. Dr salas is great at what he put he's hands on. Breast implant is he's specialty. I took a chance with butt implants and still was successfull. State of the art office and equipment. recommended people from new york that flew in for procedures, and was happy just like i knew they would. you must! must! must! do your homework and everything should pass with a A+.

Dr. Jose Salas Martinez.
The clinic is called Clinica de cirugia cosmetica, you can put it in exactly like that on line and the web page should appear. He's face is first face you will see, on the web page.

Did you ever get your implants replaced with a bigger size? I just recently had the procedure done a couple of weeks ago and went ahead and got the biggest size because I was worried that if I got the large implant that I would barely notice. My doctor did tell me that it's easier to go from a smaller implant to a bigger size implant. Also, how long did it take for you butt to fully recover because Im not to pleased with the results but was told that it'll take 6 weeks to 6 months to fully form.

Confused about the difference between being board certified in plastic and reconstructive surgery and being certified or in an association for plastic surgery? Go here to look up your doctor. If he or she is not here, he or she is NOT board certified in plastic and reconstructive surgery. No matter what they tell you. This website is it. cirugiaplastica.org.mx/
Sure no problem. Sorry for responding, so late. Completely forgott about my own question Lol.
Dr jrsalas. Grand tijuana hotel 17 floor. Ask for gricela she speaks english.
Hi Pam,
To check whether your doctor is board certified or not you can use this website: https://www.certificationmatters.org/is-your-doctor-board-certified/search-now.aspx
All you need to do is put in the doctors first and last name (don't put city, state, etc. As it may stifle the results) and then it will ask you to register (which is free to do) and it will then provide the board certification details of your doctor.
In this instance Dr. Cortes is a plastic surgeon board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery.
Hope this helps!
Hi Pam,
Dr. Cortes is definitely board certified, but over and above that I can't tell you whether to use him or not. I've never had any personal experiences with Dr. Cortes and so I could never recommend one way or another.
What I would say is that you should have several consultations with different doctors and do your research on all of them. Once you find one you're comfortable with them you'll know they're the right doctor. Make sure they're board certified, read lots of reviews and have consultations.
Good luck!
