MACS Facelift with Fat Transfer in The Philippines - Philippines, PH

I think there is an element of luck involved. How you are going to heal, how much pain you will endure, even the final result is unknown until you take the plunge and have the procedure. You need to want it pretty badly, follow the instructions and be prepared for what may eventuate. The rest is in the lap of the gods. I knew how much I was prepared to pay and I did not want to fork out $15000 plus. I was prepared to pull out once I got to Manilla if anything there alarmed me. A lot of people assume standards are lower in overseas countries and this is not necessarily the case. Trust in your surgeon is paramount. Dr Lorenzo had a direct no nonsense approach and I could see he was thorough and professional from the get go. His on line reviews were good but this doesn't guarantee your experience will be perfect. I prayed a lot and was determined to be positive throughout. But I was also aware I was taking a risk. But you know, nothing ventured nothing gained.

I think PS anywhere takes courage. I trust my gut feeling and I felt 100% confident in Dr L before I booked. I hate being ripped off and I think western plastic surgeons are exploiting our vanity.

Thank you. I think I look better in person. I have never been in the least photogenic. I would like to get an upper eye trim now. Whether I go back to Dr Lorenzo will depend on the cost locally. Maybe if there's a super special on air fares I might.

I had the fat transfer around my mouth and cheeks and at the base of the tear trough where it was very sunken. The PS said that there is a limit to how much transferred fat the vascular system can support. I think he said 145 ml.

Thank you Shirley. I've since been back for an eye and forehead lift which were also very pleasing. Must get around to writing up that experience too.
