WORTH IT$8,000
My procedures are in 46 days im extremely excited! >.< I've been wanting this for a really long time (since i was like 17) like many of you.. Im 5'1 155lbs, wanting to get down to at most 140 by d-day so im trying to diet and exercise now (ill keep yall posted on my weight loss.) Im taking the week off of work i booked my surgery. my surgery day is also my birthday weekend so im pretty excited that for my 24th birthday ill be closer to my ideal body. My biggest fear at this point is coming out botched, or with bad results (i watch the show botched on E-_-)but i think my expectations are realistic. Im going for 475 cc inspira ultra high cohesive gel implants under the muscle with an inframammory incision. And the Lipo i want to do my lower belly and pubic area for a flat finish.( I wanted to wait till I got a little closer to my surgery date to start writing a review but my excitement got the best of me.) These reviews helped me out a lot so I hope this helps whoever is considering going to this Dr. I've heard that he's one of the best here in the RGV. If anyone has a good experiences with Dr. Luis Rios Jr. In Edinburg please message me thanks.

Update: my consultation with Dr. Rios is on Wednesday, i really can't wait because this will be the first time im meeting with him. I guess the wait time to meet with him takes a really long while(i booked my surgery in April and im barely meeting with him this month) i have a lot of questions and ive done a lot of research. #1 i wanna know how much is lipo'd for lower belly lipo? #2 does he have specific way to prevent double bubble #3 how much do they charge for the mons pubis lipo? #4whats best for me subglandular vs sub muscular placement of implant. I met with the nurse coordinator and she rushed me and i didn't feel comfortable, so hopefully i get a different vibe this time around. I know of a dr in Mexico (a family friend went to that had lipo done with) and her results were exceptional. I will consider going there because the lipo with dr rios is sooo much more. The break down is for the amount im getting my lower belly for i could probably get my whole abdomen for over there. Hopefully they can throw in the mons area for free. I had a nightmare about my boobs coming out botched:( my boobs were lop sided and i could flip them in my chest D: i guess the pre-op jitters are setting in. Till the consultation!

Heck yess i am super excited!!! Lol i cant sleep any more. I will be getting high profile 450-500cc unless she feels like a little more would give me the look I want. I really hope I can go up to 500. What is your breast diameter?
I do the same I don't move around alot at work, but I still requested 2weeks for my recovery. Im just sooo scared going back. I hope they drop significantly before I go back to work haha. What about you?

I had my consultation with Dr. Rios, I feel relieved after meeting with him. After getting my questions answered and 3D photos im deciding to go with 500cc inspira gel implants and lipo of the upper and lower abdomen. I got a totally different vibe this time. The nurses were really nice and chatty. The price difference is only $700. I have a preop appointment next thursday at 8:30am then the next appointment i have will be my surgery! Im still in disbelief and feel like its not gonna happen lol. Ive been gaining weight i think partly from stress and i hope weightloss after implants and lipo is easier. Anybody have experience with weight loss after implants and lipo? I would like to be at 140 final weight im at 159 now.
