Jose Guerrerosantos, MD

Well hello ladies this is my first post. I have been stalking of you here for a while and you guys has helped me with your journeys to take the decision of go ahead and get a bbl. I am so so nervous just by the thought of doing it. I have been through 3 c-sections and one surgery to remove a little ball from my left buttocks and after all those surgeries I promised myself to never enter an operation room by choice and well here I am, about to do it :D I am still not 100 % if I will go ahead but I am 99 % I will..
I live in Denmark but I am Mexican and I go to Mexico every winter. we will be there 4 weeks from dec. 11- the 13 th. of januar so I want to do it during this time. In Denmark they do not do a bbl because they think is too dangerous. And in Mexico they do but I am so worried because they are not really that many review of doctor in my hometown Guadalajara so I am also bit nervous about it... I want to choose the best doctor does not matter the price! but I just don't know who is the best :(
I am also not sure if I want the fact injected in my butt even though I really need it LOL but I am too scared of all those horribles risk with it and I am a mother 3 and I just do not want to risk my life for a nice butt... anyway I will post some pics so you can see my problems... I hate my hips I just want them away from me...:D

Well I am running out of time, we are leaving to Mexico in 2 weeks aprox. and I still not sure if I want to get the surgery done. I mean I do want to get ride of all the fat ! but I am so so nervous and afraid of complications.. I am like is it worth it to risk my life for a new body? and yes it might be but I have 3 young daughters and I am too paranoid than far from thinking in the painful recovery or the outcome I am more worried about the surgery and what if my heart stops and I don't wake up? :( I wish it was easier.
I am also very confused about choosing the right doctor. I have been in contact with 4 and I think they all have very good experience and I feel very safe just by reading their emails. But it would be much easier if I could find more reviews about their job and experience. Or if some of my friends were recommending one of them but I am on my own! I have no idea what to do :( .
But the thought of getting my dream body makes me so happy and if I could do it in a month would be great!! but I am just so nervous and afraid and confused...

I need help to make up my my mind :(

It has been a rollercoaster the last days. I got to Guadalajara, México last week and got my first appt with the surgeon I choose Dr. Fernando Guerrerosantos. Monday was our first meeting. We arrived to the Dr.s office and was closed... We were supposed to see the dr.at 9 but the office opened at 9 and after 10 min. It was crowded. We got to see Doctor Fernando and hour and half later. I felt that the appt. Was very rushed, and we got to talk about some of the quedtions I got. I didnt feel like a deep conection with him but he was nice and felt okay to go ahead the next day for my surgery.
Surgery day I was so scared and nervous. We got to the hospital one of the best in Guadalajara. My room was nice and spacious. At 8 I was taken to pre op room where the anesthesiologist got me tipsy and relax, I barely remember getting the peridural shot and I was out of it with the sadation. I woke op before the surgery was done, i could feel everything painless... Does that make sense???. After sugery everthing was fine. I got to get up later that night and I liked what I saw on the mirror.... So much pain!!!!! The last 3 days..... Anyway today 3 days post op I got to take a shower and remove my faja and was sooo dissapointed.. I cried so much! I got a nice waist, back .. My stomachl look very swollen and uneven but the worst my hisps! The reason I decided to get this surgery. They look exactly the same :-( no change at all! I cant stop thinking about it. I hope I will look better the next few weeks...

Well, it has been a long journey since I got my bbl. I am still sore in my stomach and my back but definitely getting better day by day. I started using my exercise machine since 2 weeks ago and I feel great..
My results are getting better and better.. my hips look just as imagine but it was a long wait to see some happy results.. I was so anxious and worried the first 4 weeks.. I could not see so much difference but I must say that it is getting much better.. I still have a dent in my right hip but I don't think is the doctors faults.. I had a round hip and a square hip and it is the square one that still in the same shape, way smaller but you can see the square :S though i think it will be something less invasive to fix... now my problem still in my stomach i have a dent that I did not have before getting the surgery and it has gotten better but I still have it.. I wonder if at 6 weeks it is something permmanent or if there is still time for it to disappear......
I still don't want to rate my whole review. I will wait till 3 months to give my final verdict .
I am happy much more happy but still not 100 % specially with the huge dent in my stomach.. so we'll see..

It has been a very slow recovery. Sometimes I still feel sore in my back are ( there I used to have my muffin top) but all in all Iam very happy for my results. The main reason I got the surgery was to get rid off my hips, and I got them removed in a very natural way. I also got the fat transfer which I was not interested at the beginning in getting but I went ahead anyway. I kinda regret not getting a bigger but but I am happy with the little curve I got, I mean still better than before :)

I am 58 and was motivated to have a face lift 4 years ago after losing significant weight from a lap band procedure. Dr. Guerrerosantos is a great surgeon and his son Fernando joined the practice. 5 years ago. I knew he had taught other surgeons not only in Mexico but also at international symposiums. So, I researched articles he has written on PubMed (National Library of Medicine) The outcome is excellent. I am most impressed with the work on my neck, chin and eyes. I wish that I had been more explicit that I wanted a tighter look. If I return to GDL for additional surgery, I will definitely go with their clinic. I need additional lipo in my upper abdomen (the band was removed), also where the band of my bra fits under the arm and lastly - my upper calves. Most high boots do not fit me. Next time, I will book my surgery during the coolest time of the year and add some time for shopping at the end of the trip. GDL is a great city and Chapalita area is a very safe and lovely area. There is a lovely outdoor walking mall and nice restaurants. They have what are called "Executivo" buses that are very reasonable. I did not use taxis except to and from the airport. His driver took me to and from appointments for a small fee.

How do I contrast the 2 surgeons that worked on me? Dr. Cardenas was excellent and his work introduced me to plastic surgery in Mexico. While I feel that he personally is an excellent surgeon, I did not like his private hospital and the quality of nursing care I received. The aftercare I received was adequate but quite average. Conversely, I feel that Dr. Guerrerosantos and his son, Fernando Guerrerosantos have much better bedside manner and explained the procedures to me in more detail. They made me feel more comfortable. I also liked the hospital he chose - Sanatorium Guadelajara. He recommended a Gastroenterologist and I had endoscopy for a band erosion the morning before my PS. While I was there, I also had dental work and dermatology work done. He made great recommendations and helped me find the right physicians. Having a good experience is based on choosing the right physicians - whether you are in the USA or doing the medical tourism stint abroad.
