35 Year Old Mom of 2. Needed my Breasts Back!! - Cuba

I am a 35 year old mom of 2 living in Toronto, Canada. A couple of months ago I decided it was time for some ‘me’ time (I know, sounds horribly selfish). Anyway, I decided to post here, because I see some women have gone to the Dominican Republic and other countries, but I have not seen anyone posting on Cuba. This is odd, considering the amount of foreign patients I met during my stay in Havana, including Americans and fellow Canadians.
I am very satisfied with the results and I only have great things to say about my experience. I must admit to being skeptical and a bit scared to leave the country. However; I did some research, asked around and considered my budget in my decision making process. The whole trip was arranged by Multisalud.ca and included some back and forth regarding medical history and pictures of treatment areas. The clinic was clean and modern, considering it is Cuba!! But the best part is the medical staff and the doctors: they are simply wonderful human beings. I think the result speaks for itself and I paid a fraction of the cost of anything similar offered in Canada. Also, their price includes everything: round trip (from Canada), pick up and drop off at the airport, procedure incl. anaesthesia, private room, a la carte menu, and doctor supervised recovery (I was there for 5 nights, which granted is not optimal, but still ok). I would recommend Cuba to anyone who is on the fence about going there for plastic surgery.

Hi, thanks for the compliments. I had my sister come with me on my “adventure”. I highly encourage anyone to have a close family member or friend with them during the trip. My room at the clinic had a companion bed, so that was a big plus.

Thank You for sharing, did you go to Cira Garcia? I am searching for pictures to find some results but couldn't find any...

Yes, I was at the Cira Garcia clinic in Havana. Is hard to find pictures on the internet as Cuba is not big on marketing, which is a shame as they are a hidden gem. Multisalud arranged the whole trip for me and their website www.multisalud.ca has some before and after pics, including mine :) if you are looking for some reference.

i went to cira garcia clinic nov 4 to 14th. omg i cant say enough about this clinic. i felt like part of the clinic when I left. I cried. Didnt want to leave the so nice people there. Pls say hello to Dr Lau and Dr Burgue for me. Linda McGuire from Ottawa Canada lol.. Dr Lau i fell in love with him. He is funny, compassionate, a perfect surgeon in anything he does. he does the best facelifts i am told. incredible surgeon. I had lipo full upper torso and bottom and removed fat from my back. Stitches are healing tremendously. i am going back to get my abd muscles and body lift done next year. When i turn 65 dr lau will do my facelift. The staff and even the security guys are fantastic. You book the room a block away at i forget her name at this moment but they know the name and will refer you there. cheap for 3 nites to stay before you go home if your staying 10 days. you have cafe downstairs...the owner is a beautifl woman and will make your stay wonderful. nice cold a/c for their hot weather. dont try and do anything if you dont feel energy as the heat will make you sick after surgery. i tried and had problems far away from my apt there. so go easy, recover and go back another time. you walk to the clinic for removal of stitches..2 mins and you are there and also to take taxis to where you want to go and back to airport when going home. beware of the taxis though. they set their own prices. a taxi from clinic to airport should cost $25. MY TAXI going home he charged me $40...AND STOPPED down the road from airport to make me pay. when you get off the plane at airport at havana. make sure you go straight to currency at airport to get your money turned to CCUs...their havana money..NOT PESOS...and make sure you get the right amount. your bank wont give you your money back. so if you dont spend all your cuban ccus you have to go back and spend it again lol...and make sure you have the right amoiunt of CCUs payment for the cashier when you go there or they wont do surgery. i didnt do this and had to get up in morning take a taxi to a currency place to exchange my money. it was so early in morning i was very tired and forgot. stupid me. so get your currency when you step off the plane before going to clinic. good luck everyone and dont forget to say hello to the staff for me .. ALSO I BROUGHT A SEPARATE SMALL SUITCASE ON PLANE AND IT WAS FULL OF NYLONS, RAZORBLADES, HAIR STUFF FOR LITTLE GIRLS, BOOKS FOR LITTLE BOYS, DOCTORS LOVED THE SHOE POLISH AND THE CANDIES, THEY CARRY THEM AROUND IN THEIR POCKETS LOL. I SPENT $100 CDN TO FILL UP SUITCASE. THE STAFF LOVED ALL THE ITEMS. EVEN FOUGHT OVER THEM...THEY SO APPRECIAQTE THIS.
