Simply the Best

Let me start by telling you that I was never someone who gave a lot of thought to the possibility of having plastic surgery. I am a busy woman in an executive role for a large company, who always received compliments from strangers that I looked 10 years younger than my real age.
Then one day it happened, the compliments stopped, and when I looked in the mirror, I didn't recognize the person looking back at me.
Everything on my face and neck had fallen, and I saw more and more wrinkles. I tried every cream and treatment out there, but nothing worked. If this sounds like you, please read on.
I knew I needed to try something different and that I needed the help of a specialist.
I began researching to find a specialist that could give me a natural refreshed look. I always thought that facelifts looked too plastic and unnatural, but then I came across Dr. Miramontes online.
The before and after photos looked remarkable, and I found the courage to send some questions. My questions were answered almost instantly by Karen, the Patient Care Coordinator, who works closely with Dr. Miramontes. She is very caring, thorough, and responsive.
Dr. Miramontes and his team are in Guadalajara, Mexico, and they absolutely know how to deal with international patients. They were very accommodating when it came to scheduling a surgery date that worked for me. They even handled the lab work. They make everything so easy.
So if you are worried about having a procedure done in Mexico, don't be! Everything is so organized and professional. They picked me up at the airport, and we went directly to meet with Dr. Miramontes.
I knew I was in good hands!
The Dr is excellent and will be honest with you about what you need and what you don't need. I felt comfortable with him and wasn't nervous about anything even though it was a major surgery - that says a lot about how they support you as a patient!
The hospital is clean, new, and state of the art. Dr. Miramontes and the team that took care of me are remarkable. Surgery was nearly 6 hours, and I was surprised that Dr. Miramontes was there to see me when I opened my eyes to make sure I was ok and to answer any questions.
After the surgery, a nurse stayed with me 24 hrs a day for two days (Lulu and Lula). They really care about you and look after everything you need. Dr. Miramontes and Dr. Mirabel were also checking on my regularly.
I elected to have Nurse Lula take care of me once I moved to the hotel to continue with my recovery. She was awesome! I stayed in Guadalajara for 2 weeks and had a daily ultrasound and hyperbaric treatments to promote healing (Thank you, Bernice and Mary Carmen). I think these treatments really help.
Here is a bit more about my recovery:
The first week, my face looked like a pumpkin, swollen, and I had some bruising. A few drains are inserted, which is a bit uncomfortable, but I never felt any pain at all. It was strange seeing myself like that, but I knew it was temporary. You feel better once drains and stitches are removed.
The second week, bruising and swelling coming down a bit. I was able to cover up bruises with makeup, but glad I decided to stay and that I didn't return to work. I flew home on day 14 and continued to rest at home. I did a lot of sleeping and followed Dr's orders.
The third week, minimal bruising and swelling. Hardly noticeable. Everyday gets better and better, but swelling can take 3 months to heal fully.
I am thrilled with the result.
The turkey neck is gone, my eyes lit up, wrinkles are gone, my jawline is refined. Everything is back where it's supposed to be. I look like myself still - very natural.
I am a private person, so I apologize that I am not sharing before and after photos. Trust me when I say the transformation is remarkable. Dr. Miramontes is simply the best!
If you relate to any of my situations and are worried about the procedure or doing it in Mexico, don't be. I assure you that you won't regret it.
Thank you, Dr. Miramontes!
