6 weeks post TT, BBL, fat transfer face in TJ
WORTH IT$7,999
It's been 6 weeks wearing size 8 jeans whoo hoo!
Doing wonderful!
Bought the wrong tape was using paper tape got something similar to cloth tape thought it would be sturdy , but had a allergic reaction and broke out in hives a tiny blister where the tape touched my skin, very itchy (yikes) won't do that again ! You can see some of the rash around my belly button .
Holding off on my compression garmet so it gets air for s few days.
My fellow employees keep stopping me and saying you look so much younger and beautiful , it's s little embarrassing, not use to it :)
I can't wait to go back in about 6 months for micro stem abrasion treatment for the deeper wrinkles around my mouth and Botox injections to temple smile lines .
Dr. Cervantes really cares about your outcomes and results , he did as much as he could do for me in one surgery by also having his wife also a plastic surgery assist , I was not charged anymore for this but allowed me to get it all done!
1. I had fat transferred to my face , they also did a brow lift and tightened area under my chin.
2. Extended tummy tuck
3. BBL fat transferred to my flat butt
Orange County California quote over 34,000 dollars
But at Plasticatijuana under 10,000.00
Beautiful hospital that caters to US citizens
Beautiful hotels near by ( Hilton and the Marriot )
Dr Cervantes excellent credentials check out his site and the Hospital Angeles
US trained too!!
I just mention it because I'm grateful someone told me. I made it a vacation of youthful rejuvenation .
Here are some 6 week photos

So glad it worked out perfectly! My surgeon works with his brother-in-law who is also a plastic surgeon and it makes your time under anesthesia less which is always a good thing. My only problem is I keep leaking lymphatic fluid and I don't want to have to clean open wound myself and risk infection, so I'm still in CR until it's resloved with nurse cleaning it 2x a day.

Me want to get my butter fixed. No matter how many squats I do my ass is sliding down my legs

HelloI am going to be going to this doctor for my TT...BBL...and BA! I am just wondering...did he ask you how big or round you wanted your bum or did you let him decided how much to transfer? also how was your pain after surgery? I am wondering how you felt the next day? thank you!
November 29, 2016
Yes he ask me what shape and how much larger I wanted my butt to be I had some pictures ready to show him but in the end I just told him that I wanted to have some shape and a little more volume and left it up to him on what he thought would look good on me. I'm feeling really good but even at six weeks you will still be sore but you will be able to work and do your activities of daily living my butt just felt like someone had given me some shots so it had a tender bruised feeling but I could deal with that look at my post on this maternity pillow I bought it was really helpful in me keeping pressure off my butt and I laid on my sides a lot. The incision area on the Tommy talk is actually numb I don't feel anything there what was uncomfortable was the area where they lift up your skin and pull it down that tissue needs to re-attach it self and that felt really tender and sore when I would try to move it actually felt like a really bad sunburn but again no pain no gain ha ha ha so worth it. I did have a few stitches on the right side of my hip that didn't want to dissolve so that area was really tender as a stitches tried to work themselves out so I removed about three myself but for most part all the stitches healed nicely. I actually stayed there 10 days then came home and on the 14th day removed my drains myself I only had to clip one stitch on each side and then I gently pulled the tubes out it was a little tender but I used an ice pack at the same time and that helped a lot that saved me a trip going back down to Mexico and I just sent the doctor pictures. Hey keep me in the loop on how your surgery goes I'm excited for you
November 29, 2016
Thank you for your reply...I appreciate how you went into detail about your experience. I am making my appointment for June bec thats when the kids go on vacation lol...I WISH I could have done it in December BUT of course he was booked up....I am a little worried about all this work at one time BUT he told me he has a team that will take care of me...I will be going alone which isn't a big deal to me. I am going to get that pillow thank you for telling me...Wondering did you get a wheel chair for the plane? I was thinking that is a good idea....I am thinking I will stay for at least 11 days or so bec I REALLY want him to check the incisions as much as possible. Please keep posting n your progress...Thanks for being SO kind! :)

I had a wheelchair but mostly because I broke my foot the night before surgery .
But calling ahead and arranging one for airport not a bad idea, you will be able to walk , you just won't be able to stand straight up and that makes your back hurt. I grab bar that auctions to the shower I used it to get in and out of shower.
Getting out of bed was tricky you really need to have something you can kind of pull yourself up with when you're in the hotel room I position the will chair next to the bed and lock the wheels and I would grab onto the arms of the wheelchair to roll myself over, then I would use my arms and slowly start pushing myself up to a sitting position.
You might want to start logrolling in bed and then pushing yourself up on your side practicing before your surgery to get your arms and your shoulders stronger Sotile be easier for you I wished I would've done that.
I have stayed at three different hotels down in Tijuana one was the Hyatt it was big fancy very very nice. I also stayed at the Lucerna which is also a very nice hotel beautiful pool and fancy . Another hotel that my husband and I stayed at was Hacienda Del Rio it's smaller but what I liked about it it was I could get a ground-level hotel room with easy access getting in and out of my room so it was really easy for me to get like the bell boy to help me or get to the car to go to my doctors appointment .
The hacienda Del Rio actually was less expensive than the other two But fit my needs better . They also had a wheelchair there that they let me borrow and the bellboy just let me use it for free that was nice so check out those three I am on hotels.com and got good rates
I saw you were wondering about like anabiotic's after the surgery I was on an anabiotic I think for a week but also anabiotic spray to the incisions and my bellybutton I also was taking a blood thinner so I didn't get blood clots .and I also took for four weeks and anti-inflammatory medication that also helps with fluid retention and Edems, this was helpful for pain I was given a medication which I've taken before called Ultram which is a prescription pain medication but not really considered a narcotic along with ibuprofen.
My advice is to mentally get prepared to allow yourself time to heal because even though people are posting pictures and smiling and posing they are still healing there still sore I think it takes a couple months for your body to return back to normal , so I take it day by day and take some self fees which always makes me feel happy that I took the journey to get to the flat side .
Have you met Dr Cervantes ? He is great !
And do you mind if I ask how you found him?
I spent weeks researching and talking to fellow physician friends ( I'm im nurse in Orange County CA)
I wanted someone who had some training in California.
When I saw his wife , she is beautiful , I knew he had good taste lol and had s eye for beauty ;)
Sorry for the ling text !

November 30, 2016
hi Hun I just seen your post..Well...Let me tell you how I found this doctor....last year I went to TJ to have the gastric sleeve....so thats why I am comfortable with going alone. Plus I KNOW they will take care of you there...It was recommended that if I wanted plastic..dr Cervantes would be the BEST doctor to go to...I dont know if you remember me telling you about me going in June..BUT now I am worried about that bec yesterday I went to have my blood checked and today I got a call from my nurse saying I am SEVERELY anemic and I need to take iron 3 times a day as well as being referred to an hematologist..so I am BEYOND freaked out! its like learning about something that is COMPLETELY new to you...I am not sure if its bec of my surgery bec before that i was healthy and fine..so I am scared...hopefully the situation can be taken care of and I can continue with my plan for my surgery...I hope you are feeling better day by day!

It's a good thing you checked it !! You need it to be back to normal for your surgery
You must be feeling wiped out !
Get better soon

Tummy tuck - BBL - fat transfer to face 5 weeks update
Big improvement in how my tummy feels , no longer has a tender feeling to touch and started applying scar cream .
The right hip drain site is smaller that a pencil was eracer. The incision on right hip was very tender and as I looked closer I could see 3 small stiched that were not wanting to dissolve so being the nurse I am I removed them myself , felt so much better!
Because I broke my foot the night be for surgery put me in a wheelchair for 1 month, so I think I have lost some of the fat graft to my butt, and swelling is gone , but it still looks very natural and I am very pleased.
Incision under chin healing well and I am getting compliments on all the procedures done by Dr. cervantes and Dr. Aragon , it really validates that all my research I did to find the best PS in TIjuana paid off ! I honestly felt like I was at top hospital in Orange County with a Beverly Hills PS team ! At 57 going on 58 I now look more like I feel ???????????? PladticaTijuana

Hey you look great! Isnt it a plus that your a nurse that you can monitor your wounds closely and prevent infection before it worsens among other things. I am a nurse at well hihihi and I am so meticulous on changing my dressing on my wound and my drain hihihi. Im so sorry about your broken foot. I hope you are healing well. May I ask what ceeam you use for your incision. I started massaging my belly and flanks with sheacocoabutter and I put a thin coating of mederma for mine.
November 21, 2016
I'm just using Merderma and I bought Scar away strips too.
My daughter made me "young Living " oils to rub on my belly it's in a roller , I forgot what oils she put in it ! Lol body looks younger but brain getting older!

You look great! You should be very happy with your results. I have the vertical crease going on too and glad to see yours looking so good and natural! I kind of think "the crease" has an athletic look to it now. :)
November 23, 2016
I agree , it feels like there is a little more fat under that area so if I really wanted it gone I could probably lose more weight and exercise it off but I'm also realistic that I'm 57 years old and I always battle a little extra weight on me so I am very happy with the results
November 23, 2016
I think it's crazy when I look at my before pictures my stomach had still a lot of fat and lots of rolls and it was really stretchy and pulley so the results he gave me in just a few hours makes me amazed

3 weeks TT, BBL
Incision healing , skin on stomach still tingles.
I use a pillow or my hands to provide pressure to my abdominal area if I cough or sneeze because that is painful .
I'm doing the best I can to try and not sit in my butt to much.

Looking great!!! Are you using a compression garment or did you and now you are out of it? Are you still in Mexico or did you go home? I am booked to stay at recovery place in Costa Rica for 18 days.
October 31, 2016
Believe me , the recovery is slow and difficult at times , I could have easily stayed there a month.
I was supposed to go back to work after 2 weeks but I just could not do it , Dr took a additional 2 weeks off .it sucked the energy right out of me , I sometimes repeat what my grandfather would say to me when I had a boo boo, " just think how good it's going to feel when it quits hurting "

hahaha, I'll try to remember that! But you look wonderful! And I love your undies!
I doubt I will have BBL, but hope to have arms and/or FUE hair transplant. I don't think I'm ready for full arm lift, so it's mini or none at this point. I've gotten very very thin hair the past few years and tried PRP last year without any results. Nobody here seems to be able to confirm if I am a good transplant candidate or not.

I was looking into hair transplant for my husband and daughter if you do it let me know how it goes
If you do it let me kno

i think Turkey is the place to do it. Lots on RealSelf about FUE being done there. My hair is so thin that I'm afraid the scar would show through with the old fashioned kind of transplant.
November 8, 2016
i can't figure out how to post photo on your page, but it you go to my page, I posted a picture of the donor area of FUE hair transplant. i didn't do my homework and thought of it as a nothing procedure. It hurt more the first night than my tummy tuck. Well, with exparel, it didn't hurt until today, in fact I keep forgetting and standing up straight and twisting but now that the numbing is wearing off, i don't think I'll be doing it any more.
If your daughter does it, she could probably make it look like a cool fade after a week or two.

I had a little fat place in my lips , temples, and under my eyes .
I was nervous because of horror stories I've seen
And it's difficult to correct if done wrong , but my surgeon has not let me down in the past so I do trust him
I posted before pic and after and you can see those areas getting fat over all gave me a fuller more youthful look 30 percent reabsorbs so you want to over correct , but o did not elect to do that again I was nervous !
So I may get a touch up in a year
