I am young and do not have children however my weight has always fluctuated and the biggest place to lose the most weight is always my breast. They have been deflated for the last couple of years and I wanted to have them listed without losing any volume so in addition to a breast lift I also received 300 cc silicone under the muscle implants. My doctoral was dr. Carmina Cardenas. I would consider her my quote on quote surgeon because I trust her this is the third procedure I received from her and I am always satisfied with our customer service bedside manner and her recovery house is also very nice. So my procedure went pretty easy no complications and not much pain currently I am day one Post op. And the biggest difference I know this is in my back and I have to breathe really shallow... the nurses and doctors here are all very helpful and have been making me very comfortable as usual. the work performed here in TJ is awesome and I am happy to be so close to get work that is comparable to that in the States for a great discount

Looking great! What others procedures has she done for you? What decides whether they place the implant under or over? Why did you decide to go under?

It has been a little more than a week since my breast lift plus and plants with Dr Carmina Cardenas... Everything has been going great I just removed my dreams yesterday my incisions look great and I'm not experiencing any pain. I I am sleeping better now even though I have to sleep on my back and I'm not used to it. My breath are getting slightly softer slightly less tired I'm still not really driving or doing anything such as working out or lifting heavy items but day to day life is pretty basic at this point. If you have any questions let me know check out the photos of my jugs lol 300cc under high profile

7 months and change.

I am pretty satisfied with my breast but I have a few questions I often wonder have they dropped completely? and my only concerns have to do with leaning forward and flexing... When I lean forward it is apparent that the bottom half of my breast is empty and I have an implant or at least it is apparent to me... my second concern is when I flex my breast somewhat go a bit to the side, now I don't know if this is because they haven't dropped all the way or if this is just something that happens... I have never had any major complaints or pain or anything, my breast look beautiful... full & high and supple I just am new to this experience and don't know exactly what to expect so I'm just sharing my results with you... I kind of wish they were slightly bigger lol and I also wish that they sat in my breast tissue so when I go to touch my breast I can feel then there is an actual mass there and not just the remainder of my natural breast with the implant behind it... You know what I mean? Ask me any questions I will try to answer them ASAP

Did you get any answers? Would you recommend dr Cardenas to a black woman seeking tummy tuck, breast lift and implants? I reside in America, is it worth traveling to Mexico for?

Hi! I'm getting a lift with implants and they recommended 295cc but I'm worried that too small. I'm 5'5 and 135lbs. What are measurements for comparison? TIA!
