I had a great experience. Alot of people though I was crazy because I went out of the country but well it was well worth it!

Great review?

My Doctor:

Because he was honest with me and my results he did not lie about anything and he really tried his best to give me the best results. He was able to get off 15 pouds of fat and I am very pleased.

Yes, he was honest with me too. I had alot of fat on my stomach. OMG!!!! I'm down 30lbs from surgery!!!

I also went to Dr. Lara in TJ and my stomach look similar to yours. He also did a WONDERFUL job in getting my stomach as small as possible. How does it look now? I went Jan, 2012. So it hasn't been a year yet.

It still looks good however, I have lost alot of weight and I am actually going back to get a Lipo with Breast lift w/implants. The only thing Dr Lara is not longer at Jerusalem Hospital which is a bummer!

Hi you look great...........where did Dr Lara go did he open his own practice do you know.......would love to chat more with you and ask more questions...........txwild65@yahoo.com

Yeah, I heard he wasn't there anymore. So are you planning on going back there to let the new Dr. preform surgery? I haven't heard any reviews on him as of yet. I'm actually planning to go to ATL to get SmartLipo....just in my abdomen area. Dr. Windell Boutte (look her up) was telling me when you have a hernia repair (belly button) they don't like to do alot of defining (lipo) by that area. So I'm going to have that area done. Also, when I wore my garment, a crease formed down my belly. (not real bad). Just the way my skin healed. So that will be straightened out along with the fat being removed.

@ flat belley thank you I think this is what I am going to do also... I live in the IE so it is a little drive but i want drains out before I go home!
flatbelly313 28 Aug 2011
I stayed in Mexico for 5 days and they removed the drain before I left back home to the states!
waiting to exhale 22 Aug 2011
I hear you on that how long did you stay in mexico or did you go home same day. And what about your drains did you go back or do this all on your own!

Oh ma I dont know why I thought you had it done recently last year wow how do you feel now....May I ask this why did you decide to go through with it at that size please please I am not trying to be offensive your results are great I am a little smaller with less bootie I would do it right now if I had the money lol I am waiting til I get my taxes so it will gove me time to loose @ least 50 more pounds.... you look great after gurl.
flatbelly313 12 Aug 2011
Well the reason I got it done at the size I was , was because at the time I did not think I needed to lose any additonal weight! I had already lost 70lbs and I was happy with my self at that time. But since the sx I have lost 55 lbs so I guess I am just ass backwards lol! By the way I feel Grrrrrrrrrreat! And look that way as well the only thing I am going back to get is my arms and maybe a lil lipo to my sides.....

Danylle 3 Aug 2010
Was there a specific reason you chose to go to Mexico? If the results turned out great and the price was on the low end I can understand it completely. Congrats on your decision and the new you!
