$8,000
Got a bbl a couple years ago...unsatisfied (for pictures see my old review). Jessica quoted me 8000 for the lipo,fat graft,implants,5 day stay+food. Medication & transportation to & from airport not included. Transportation is 200. I'm guessing meds ab 50. I'll get her to send my script before hand so I can get it with my insurance here to make it cheaper. About to book my flight next week it's Friday so the prices are up, but It will be ab 300. Then sending my deposit which is 10% of surgery cost so $800 to save my date. I believe garment is included but not sure. I will ask her. I will be getting oval implants. He uses high cohesive silicon silimed implants and performs the intramuscular technique. I'm 5'6 ab 130 so I'm thinking I'll get 300cc? Idk yet haven't discussed size. So all together it'll be ab $8550... At this point my only worry is the short stay. I'm debating if I need to stay longer at a place near the facility to recover some more before the flight AND just incase of any complications needing immediate attention. When I got my BBL I stayed there for 2 weeks. So basically a 3 night stay (can't do surgery the same day you fly in) then flying freaks me out a bit. The flight was sooo uncomfortable after 2weeks and that wasn't implants. So I can only imagine :/. But yea idk considering staying longer. If you've had the procedure and have insight on this fill me in lol. And also I'm choosing him because of the reviews on him and his experience with this particular procedure.. I personally don't feel like he's that much cheaper than US surgeons for that to be a target reason. But I do feel like I'll get the results I want by choosing him
UPDATED FROM Lil lady
Date change & confused :/
Lil ladyNovember 9, 2014
Had to change date due to recently moving & funds. Idk when I'll re Schedule it but I've paid my deposit. As I'm working & saving I'm constantly stalking real self, reviews in general, google, MMH... Whatever I can find ab not only gongora but just butt implants diff doctors and overall. I feel like $8000 is NOT cheap plus going out of the US travel time off work the pain etc. I really want my results to be worth it! I love my body now and I have a very nice butt I just wanna tweak it and give it some more volume. So I would seriously be depressed if I get bad results :(. I saw a couple reviews that made me uneasy. I completely understand not every surgery is going to be great! And quite frankly my logic is a doctor who has done some "bad ones" means they can grow from it and it's less likely for it to be me! Lol idk if that's good logic or not but that's how I think ab it... But in this case it's kinda recent.. And the steps being taken after to make the patient feel relaxed and confident that there's a solution ..doesn't seem the best.. I'm an exotic dancer and I'd have to take more time off than most as my job is physical ... But I really have to consider the "what ifs" there's no hiding a botched surgery at my job. And I'm only saving to be off a couple months then take it easy at work. But idk what I would do if it were to go wrong. I'd HAVE to go back to work to pay the bills but my confidence would be ruined & id be so embarrassed.Anywho I'm rambling but just had to get these things off my mind. My friends already don't support the surgery so I can't vent with them lol. But I really have faith in gongora I just don't want to feel like because of the couple REALLY good ones(reviews) I ignored the not so good ones...hoping he's not a one hit (couple hits)wonder n I fell for it. I like to think id be fine and maybe it's because that patient did or was (etc etc etc...) then sometimes lack of updates after reviews kinda makes u wonder. But as of now I'm still saving for the surgery & stuff... I'm just very skeptical

I also informed Jessica ab my concerns ab this and she did reply and reassure me that's not his usual work etc etc... I try to believe they have the best intentions & aren't just telling me anything to get my money. But U never know. I need some time to really think ab it.

HI Lil i dont think they just want your money, I was there for a day, I was send home because i was sick with a bad cough, the doctor say he will not charge me for stay there all day, and pick me up from the airport and drop me the next day and the 2 meals that i got. so that was nice, he want me to get better in call them back to make another apoitment, i came home and see my dr and he say i have bronchitis so that was good i come home, I found a place in rosarito ocean front home that take care patients after surgery. I pay 1350 for 11 days :-) I dint want to come home after my 5 days there, i want to come home when I feel better for the flight. When i was there i got to see this womens after surgery they show me what they have done, and they look amasing, I was really surprice to see such a good work.. im going back :-) let you know how goes

Before done and this is nothing compare of that, so I'm going to so what they told me and follow directions and rest at lot at list a month so I don't get any complications

I completely understand every single one of your concerns, I'm in the process of choosing between Dr.Stanton and Dr. Gongora and have to make my decision by the end of the week to get the date I want for surgery. I thought I had my decision until I saw one of the reviews for Dr.Gongora where the results and the post care was less than desirable..but I'm wondering if it was a one of situation? Have you put more thought into it? What is your gut feeling??
November 30, 2014
Since my date whenever I decide on one will be a bit further out I haven't been analyzing everything at the moment. Kinda takin time to clear my mind. Then think ab it some more later. Who did u choose.
December 1, 2014
In the end I chose Dr.Stanton, I wanted to feel confident in my doctor and I personally didn't 100% feel that with Dr.Gongora but that was my own gut feeling. There's a woman on here that very recently went to him and her results turned out well
