I have read several bad reviews of the Dr's of Perfection Cosmetic Surgery Cancun and felt I needed to write my review to hopefully assure anyone who is having second thoughts on choosing this clinic. Let me say DON'T THINK TWICE!!
This clinic, it's staff and Dr's are PHENOMENAL!!
I just got back a little over a week ago so I'm still recovering, but I can tell you that my procedures and experiences have been amazing!!
Robyn my patient coordinator was with me every step of the way and fully explained everything to me from our first meeting, before surgery and to our last meeting before I flew back home, and Inhave had constant contact with her since getting home.
I personally had Dr. Valdez as my surgeon, however I had dealings with Dr. Gonzales as well.
I have several RN's as friends and 2 of them have been to see me since getting home and both have said that my incisions and everything else looks wonderful and they haven't seen anything better! They both shared with me they have seen other patients come back from other clinics in Cancun with infections and terrible work, and now that they have seen my work they too said I chose well.
Since my swelling is still present I cannot share before and after pics but I most definitely will in 6 months time! I have nothing but good to say about this place and feel anyone who goes here will have nothing but the best experience!!

I am curious about how much you were charged (in US Cy) for these procedures. That seems to usually be a critical reason people choose to have cosmetic surgery done in Mexico. Thanks.
March 26, 2015
The price I paid is in US currency which is the amount I stated $8500. The conversion to CDN was just shy of $10,200 with the current exchange rates. The more procedures done the price gets lower for obvious reasons of already being on the table out under anesthetic and staff already there.

Sorry for the delayed response. I was charged $8500 US for everything. The more you have done the cheaper it is to a degree as you have already paid for the Dr.'s time and the OR and the medications to go to sleep etc.ect. I was also in Mexico already for the week prior to my surgery and was going to be there because we had a wedding so I didn't choose to just go there just to have this done. I killed 2 birds with one stone so to speak and the total amount it would have cost me here in Canada to have all that done would've been approx. $25K CDN where is once converted was $10,200. I also researched the Dr.'s and the clinic itself well before I went

Thank you for posting this! I have been leaning towards choosing this clinic, but have also seen some negative reviews. However, this will be the case for any doctor in any country. There will always be some people not satisfied. Even the most skilled US plastic surgeons have some bad reviews.

Trisha I am almost 2 months post op now and I am feeling and doing great! I still have some residual swelling but this is normal and will eventually go away. I have not one bad word to say about the clinic, the Dr's or the rest of the staff!! They have all been amazing and after returning home I have had contact with their consultant Robyn on a regular basis!! I will be returning in November to finish the rest of what I had intended to have done. That alone should speak volumes on how happy I am with the work that has been done and just how much I trust them!! If you call the clinic and have any questions or concerns ask to speak with Robyn and she will address everything. She may even suggest you speak to me as since I've been home I have spoken to several of their now patients to reassure them of any fears or doubts that they may have had, that they will be fine and are in excellent hands!! So if you do choose here I can tell you, that you will not be disappointed!!

Thank you so much for posting this review! I read the bad ones and I turned away. I decided to check it out again. Their prices are pretty amazing I must say!
August 28, 2015
Snacky I'm actually returning there in November to finish up some liposculpturing. This is how confident and pleased I am with their work and care of me!! Their prices are comparable to many other places, but do remember you never choose a place based on price but rather on having done your research of the Dr's and clinic beforehand. I definitely got my money's worth and even if it had've been more expensive I still would've picked here knowing I was going to have the best outcome and care!
You won't be disappointed if you go!!

I don't need no mom makeover.i said liposuction and bb. That's the problem that I have.and I want the dr.Yily Delos Santos
October 30, 2015
Not sure why you're commenting on my review when this is a review of a full mommy makeover and not with the Dr. you're mentioning. I have read a lot of not great reviews of Dr. Yily so do your research well. I certainly did mine and I couldn't have chose a better Dr.

Almost 6 months post op

jonks36
I'm rounding out at almost 6 months post op.
I have gained a little weight back since I was immobile for 2 months after surgery and let's face it I went back to some poor eating habits however I'm now back on track!

I will be returning to the Dr's at Perfection in Cancun this coming November to finish up liposculpturing that wasn't able to be done the first time around due to my hemoglobin levels not being high enough to do everything safely.

My weight might be up but inches wide I'm close to the same size I was pre op except of course with a much flatter tummy!!
I can't wait to even out my larger inner thighs and get rid of the muffin too that still exists after losing nearly 50lbs initially ( I have about 15-20 of that back on but it honestly doesn't look like it)
I will post some more pics before and after surgery in a few more months but so far I'm very happy with my results!!

Almost 8 months post op

jonks36
So in another week I'm officially 8 months post operative. I am also 28 days away from having my second surgery date with a few revisions and finishing up the liposuctioning I wasn't able to have done the first time with everything else I had done as my hemoglobin level were just shy of being able to do it all safely.
Thank goodness I can kill 2 birds with one stone again as a friend of mine is getting married in the area and we are attending, so I extended my trip by 3 days so I could enjoy my trip prior to surgery.

I'm sure I'm going to have people asking what revisions I'm having done so here they are...I ended up with excessive scarring on part of my belly button that I am not happy with so I am having the doctor fix this as well as I am not happy with the upper pole fullness of my breasts as I feel there is no upper pole fullness.
They honestly look no different in a bathing suit top now then they did prior to the lift so bring that I'm not happy with that I figured perfect time to address everything at once because after this I don't plan on having anything else done for a long time.
I have included some recent pictures of both my breasts and my belly button.
I'm nervous for the liposculpturing as I'm hoping to get amazing results as I have seen from other women on here. I'm diligent in following instructions for the best possible healing outcome so I know I will have no problems there. I'm just overly anxious as I don't know what to expect. Silly I know, especially having already had a tummy tuck and breast lift, but I'm sure the nerves will go away once I get there and the Dr marks me up and I hear his plan again.

Did you have your breast implants or just a lift? If you had BA, did you have them placed under or over the muscle?
October 28, 2015
The title of my review states lift with implants. As per over or under the muscle, that I do not know the answer to. Sorry
December 12, 2015
How many cc's did you get ?
December 12, 2015
So sorry I didn't respond earlier as I'm just seeing this now.
The Dr. Took out 250cc and replaced with 280cc as I did not want to be bigger than I already was.
I was a 38 DD in the before pics and am now sitting comfortably at a 36DD.
I chose not go have my breasts redone at my last spot which was Nov. 25th as I weighed out all the pros and cons.
I have the upper pole fullness with bras but not with bandeau type bathing suits and figured that is enough for me as I didn't want to go bigger and since I'm completely healed I didn't want to risk possible infection in case something went wrong or the possibility of bottoming out one or both of my implants which would then require me to go back and have them fixed this costing more money, so I left them as is.
I will post more pictures at a later date as I just had all over liposculpturing done.
Thank you for the wonderful compliment too. I definitely feel more like the old me before I gained weight and had children now that I've lost the weight and had these procedures done.
December 12, 2015
I see you posted you didn't get the upper pole fullness you wanted did you get moderate profile?
December 12, 2015
Oh by the way you look wonderful .
