Buccal Removal/ Chin Liposuction.

WORTH IT
These are my photos, which I forgot to upload. I feel great, and confident with other people taking full face photos of me. Now I don’t necessarily always have to pose with side angle to look slimmer. If I had the chance to do it again, I will definitely go through the whole procedure again. Thank you so much Dr. Lazos. - Dominicanita from Nueva York

Hey may I ask how you got back and forth to the clinic from the airport or boarder?
most people drive in but it sucks driving in Mexico, so id recommend you leave your car and cross border.
Hey! Well I was staying in the holiday Inn hotel which was 5-10 min away from the clinic. I didn’t cross the border. I flew from NYC to Tijuana. The hotel was walking distance. I walked to the clinic and took a Uber back to my hotel. And I took a Uber to the airport. I wasn’t alone though. My husband was with me. Which I suggest being with someone in Bajo Tijuana. I heard it’s not completely safe to be alone. Hope this answers your question.
Yes, you did. Thanks a lot! I don’t have anyone to go with me snd I am afraid of traveling to Tijuana alone. I have once before but the se set up my transportation to and from the airport.
Are you saying just take an Uber to the border, cross over to MX and then send for another Uber?
yes girl, driving as a 1st timer in Mexico is crazy. its complete chaos. its best to just get an uber. honestly, and go with a boyfriend, brother to accompany you.
Ok. That just seems so dangerous to me. :/
I don’t want to stereotype the country, just hoping in a Uber in Tijuana sounds dangerous.
Do you have the address to the location? And does he have yelp? Thank you!
How long did the swelling in the cheeks take to go down ? I’m post op day 2 and feel like my cheeks are getting bigger.
These photos are absolutely useless when you cover up important parts of the photo in black!!
I agree. It’s also so distracting I have no idea what I’m looking at
It’s impossible to see anything with all of the black marker smeared all over your face. We are all in the same boat here. We want procedures like you had done & are very interested in results & before & after pictures. If you are trying to hide your face from someone, they will know you. That said, I’m glad you are happy with your results.

Great Experience

My experience with this doctor was great. What I got done were a buccal fat pad removal and chin liposuction. The whole procedure was very quick since I cooperated. He explained everything thoroughly and made me feel super comfortable during the whole procedure. Can’t wait to be fully healed to see the results. I know I won’t be disappointed.

How was the pain? How do you feel now? Any pics?
The pain was tolerable, depending on the individual’s tolerance. What was most uncomfortable for me was the anesthesia injection. I was making sound effects during that moment because I didn’t expect the injection to hurt. It was like a pinching burning sensation. After the surgery, I couldn’t feel anything since it took time for the anesthesia to wear off. But I would highly recommend it to anyone who wants that slim look face. I’m so glad about my results. As he was performing surgery, he said I had a lot of hard fat in my buccal area, and even if I would’ve worked out, I would never lose that fat. Overall the transition was smooth.
i feel great! Read below. I'm going to upload pics
How was the recovery? I am getting a facelift with buccal fat removal, neck lift, lip lift and fractional Co2 laser. All of this will be done under IV sedation and I know I can’t talk or chew anything for the first week after the lip lift but was wondering about the buccal fat removal.
hey glorious, was there tons of people in the clinic waiting to get procedures? I ask because I went to vive plastic surgery and it felt like drive thru plastic surgery, like they had 15 people waiting all to get procedures with this surgeon at vive.
