WORTH IT

Turning 60 is a milestone for anyone. For 5 years I have been researching surgeons all over the world I went to 4 consultations in Canada. It would have cost me 4x the amount it did in Cancun March 2012. Now I wanted results it. It was not just about money.

Then I found Sheri Burke and the International Patient Facilitators in Cancun. I phoned and contacted over 10 patients that had my procedures done. I also decided on a mid/lower facelift with neck lift included. But my eyes are amazing. They are the seat of our soul.

Not only are my droopy mudflaps lids gone but the fat pockets in the corner of the eyes are gone also. The stitches were so tiny that within 2 weeks most of the scars were gone.
My amazing surgeon, Dr Velasco, does a lot of continual research to improve and better his surgery. He took the fat from my eyelids and injected it under the orbital face bone and into the nasal labial folds, thus giving volume to my face with my own fat. He speaks fluent English.
The price included all surgery, meds, compression garment, transfers,all Dr appts and 10 days in beautiful Cancun.

If you choose to just have eyes done it would be a lot less. But my surgery cost $5900.00USD. In Canada the cost would have been $25,000.00
I would highly recommend Dr Velasco and the private hospital. All very safe and very clean with quality service with Sheri Burke my facilitator.

I look bright, refreshed and not pulled at all. Very natural.

What an amazingly great result!!! A friend of mine recently went to Mexico to have bariatric surgery and I thought she had to be crazy to do that, but she had great results and has lost a lot of weight. I had no idea we can go there for plastic surgery procedures!! You look 20 years younger!!! And yes, price is a concern!! Why pay more here in the US or in Canada, when we can get the same or better results in Mexico!! Again, you look GREAT!!

Pinker, are you going to Mexico for surgery as well? If so, do you mind me asking what procedure you are having done and how you went about setting this up?

To tabithanash, hi. Yes I am planning a trip in February 2013. I am getting breast lift/aug and tummy tuck. I contacted Sheri from International patient facilitators, after some research on Dr.Velasco. I am nervous about going out of country but researched for a long time and contacted some former patients. I currently work for a doctor in Canada and also discusses this, approx 4 pt (seen after surgery) have had this done by him also. My dr said good results.

Pinker, Please do a little more research, There are many people on this forum that did not have the same experience as 60 and would hate to see you end up going through what some of us have
