Good luck on your journey. I will be following your journey because I am scheduled for surgery in December with Dr. Gongora.

Wonderful! What are you getting done! I'm terrified but excited! I'll share everything. Wish me luck

I will be getting a mommy makeover as well. I know the feeling, I'm excited, nervous but ready. I'm trying to lose about 20 more pounds before my surgery, however, my body is being stubborn lol. Thanks for sharing, I'm excited to hear about your experience because I will be going through the same thing. Good luck!

I'm terrified because he suggested a circular tummy tuck and I don't want a scar on my lower back
July 21, 2016
Hi,
He suggested that to me as well but I really think I need it. I had an extended tummy tuck previously but gained weight. Viewing your pics, it doesn't look like you have loose skin at all. His scars seem pretty thin though.
July 21, 2016
Yes they look very thin and straight! My plan is treating scar with laser. I don't have loose skin in the back though which is the only reason why I question the procedure but I know he does a great job and I'm excited- a little terrified but very excited.
July 21, 2016
Being terrified is so normal, I am too. I think I'm more nervous about the pain meds not being strong enough. Are you going to be staying at the clinic for five days? Are you going to be taking wish pics for him to see? I was excited to see that you've said he listens to what you want.

Before pictures uploaded

Before pictures uploaded! Front and side view. Please note: the scar you see was from my 1st tummy tuck performed by Dr Carlos Buenrostro many years ago. I was never happy with the results so I'm putting all my faith in Dr Eduardo Gongora~ I hope he can reconstruct my body and give me a nice figure. I promise to update every single step of the process to help other women make an educated decision.

Hi thank you for documenting your journey. For some reason I'm not able to view the majority of your before and after pics. I would love to see more pics from his work. I want to schedule a mommy makeover with him but need a little more confirmation. Would you be willing to repost them or I can post my email let me know if either of these options work for you thank you.

Success!

The procedure lasted about 5 hrs. My experience was absolutely incredible. I walked into the facility, they have my room ready and a nurse gave me a liquid to shower with. They gave me IV fluids, performed an EKG and I saw a nutriologist that gave me my new meal plan. The nurse wrapped my legs in gauze to help the blood circulation and I met the anesthesiologist, the entire surgical team and the doctor. Dr gongora is a classy guy! He drew on my body and took my before pictures. His personality is very easy going so he made me feel safe and relaxed. I followed his instructions and I didn't eat any solids three days prior to the surgery. When I woke up he was next to me and my room was located right next to the nurses station. They knew no one stayed overnight with me so they pampered me with lots of care and affection. I have to admit this surgery was something huge, but the recovery has been a success. I came home a day after the surgery because I wasn't feeling pain when I was truly feeling is very sore and a lot of discomfort. This is my first day at home and someone is here taking care of me but I am managing the recovery process incredibly well. One thing I forgot to mention is the clinic offers transportation. I didn't have anyone that could probably do border to pick me up so a really nice girl drove me home for $100. There is honestly no price tag in safety so I happily made arrangements and I am now in the comfort of my home. I want to highlight the fact that the entire staff is very high and they are compassionate and truly care about the needs of the patients. Everyone gathered in my room before I left and I cried for joy because my previous experience at a different doctor was not pleasant, so I appreciate this people and I wanted to say a few words because I truly believe that their care is helping many women like us transform our lives as well as our bodies.
