Motivation to feel younger and look younger
Still healing Surgery was June 29, 2012
Horrible experience! The overdid surgery.
Regarding PAIN MEDS!!!!! I MEXICO, they do not use the same PAIN meds we do in the USA!!!! I was in horrible pain for two weeks. They do not use any narcotics......
Almost detached my whole face.
They prevented me from receiving proper healthcare. I was prevented from going to a real hospital.
They switched doctors on me!!!!! I did not have Dr. Gonzalez operate on me and he is who did my consult. They substituted a Dr. Valdez who I had never met.
I walked myself into surgery no sterile field there!
They did lipo on my timmy, hips and tush that I did NOT WANT or consent to having done.
Took too much fat and I almost died.
One ear detached.
Oh yeah and they billed me for all of the surgery. My credit card company will not refund my money for surgery I did not consent to.
The after stay hotel was a DUMP. Hotel Villa Italinao ... I forced them to get me a new hotel that was better but still not great.
I am a RN with over 16 years experience and the fooled and lied to me.
This experience has changed my life. PLEASE DO NOT GET SURGERY OUT OF YOUR HOME COUNTRY. There are places in the USA that are much cheaper than in Mexico. Look in Mississippi. or Texas.
No more surgery out of the USA for me.
Language is a huge barrier. Talk to people who have had the same surgery you are getting.
Be prepared for NUMBNESS. My face is still numb and most likely will be for 6 more months. Feeling is coming back but sleeping on my ears if horrible. Putting in earrings feels strange. Eyes have numbness, too.
They tried to get me to have my teeth done....I said "No".
They also had FREE PIXEL that they told me I needed the night before my surgery. Did not sleep all night due to the pain of PIXEL. I had never had PIXEL and had not researched it. Could not research there as the internet was down so I trusted them and what a mistake.
Had to have follow up care here in the USA. Missed work, lots of expense.

My rating:
I chose this provider because the clinic had good ratings on many of the med spa sites. I have learned they only post the good to stellar comments. I wanted to go scuba diving before surgery and st the last minute they changed my dates so that fun vacation was out! I had to be hospitalized 8 days and had physical therapy, many doctors and oh yeah, I now have a disc herniation as they must have dropped me during surgery or afterwards.
I'm so sorry to hear what you've been through. :( How are you doing now?
