26 Year Old. 3 Kids. Breast Reduction from a Dd to a C - Tijuana, MX
ORIGINAL POST
Hello I am 26 years old mother of 3 wonderful...
WORTH IT$4,000
Hello I am 26 years old mother of 3 wonderful children who just got a breast reduction done yesterday morning at 10am by Dr Carmina Cardenas. I live in Long Beach Ca and I had never traveled to Tijuana MX. I was referred to Dr Cardenas by my coworker after getting a quote in Buena Park Ca for a breast lift $7900. I did extreme research on Dr Cardenas before getting a quote from her which took 2 weeks for her to get back to me due to her work load. I also booked a 7 day stay at her own Beauty Enhancement Recovery Home. I was dropped of with my fiancé at the boarder because my fiancé didn't feel comfortable driving our car into TJ but kindly enough Ronnie Jones, Dr Cardenas husband who happens to be in charge of the Recovery Home answered my phone calls and emails at any time of the day and offered us complementary transportation.

Day 7 after my breast reduction procedure
Good morning, today is day seven after my surgery I have to say I feel great. Day three was the worst day for me I had a reaction to my medication and felt like I regretted doing this procedure. I had a hard time eating for two days, and my drive home from TJ yesterday gave he a terrible headache. I woke up this morning a saw my two boys for the first time in seven long days. I feel really good and happy to be home. Doctor requested I send her pictures every two days for this week and to continue my medication as explained. The recovery will take at least two months and a full six months to be able to return to my normal life. I won't be able to get in a pool, or go to a beach, or lay out in the sun for the next six months because I can get a infection or discoloring spots around my breast. I can't shower my self, I need help with my hair and I can't raise my hands. Over all it's a small price I have to pay until I recover.

you are doing great, get off the pain meds as soon as you can and if you are on antibiotics, take them with food. I got back to swimming at 7 weeks but will not sunbathe topless for at least 18 months as that darkens scars

Ok cool! My husband wants to go with me and I'll probably be staying for 3 days. And I need to get my passport then,, Thanks for the info. How's recovery going ? I bet it's nice being at home with your kids. I'll be leaving my two with my mom which she's wonderful with them but the fact of leaving them is so hard .. I've never been away from them ..
