Picking surgeon for tummy tuck w/mr and bbl but need to use my care credit financing, and i am on tight budget hence looking international. So looking DR, Mexico etc? Is this posible?

I do not know whether there are surgeons in Mexico, Dominican Republic, or elsewhere that accept Care Credit, but advise that you carefully consider the risks of having your surgery in a foreign country just to save some money.     You are taking a significant risk to go somewhere out of the country for a significant surgery which requires good aftercare and follow ups, especially if you have a problem.    I have seen several patients who return home with problems with fluid collections or wounds then have to find a local plastic surgeon who will take care of them.    Ultimately, it can be more costly and possibly risky.  I suggest you find local plastic surgeon.

Thank you for your question. Traveling overseas is a very good option to use your budget in the most efficient way. It is safe if you are in the care of good surgeons as we receive many international patients on a monthly basis. You can ask Care Credit if you are allowed to have an international wire transfer done with the credit budget that they offer you. Best of luck

Don't be too quick to assume taking the risk of surgery overseas is your best/only option. I suspect if you checked at some of the clinics here in Miami you would find very competitive prices, especially during the summer. Most take Care Credit.
