My friend had a breast augmentation here and her boobs came out good. So I when I met Dr. Quiroz for my consult I was impressed by his professionalism, he spoke english, his office is clean and modernized. He gave me a pretty good deal or so it thought for silicone implants and a breast lift for $4300. I knew there would be anchor scars and he assured me they would lighten in a year or so I was sold, where do I sign up? 6 months later my boobs still hadn't dropped, were still very hard and many calls and emails to the doctor were ignored. Back and forth talking about yes a revision however he would charge me for anesthesiologist, new implants, and the list goes on and on. Months and months passed and my phone calls and emails continued to be ignored. Months turned into years and years later my scars did not lighten. My implants had never fallen into their pockets properly and looked deformed. The scars were bright red, keloid and were raised even though I used silicone sheeting, scars gels day and night every day. I was very thorough in taking care of my boobs. Finally I had a revision in the U.S. this year which cost me a total of $8700. It doesn't pay to save in Mexico. For years I was so embarrased to share my story. now that I finally got them fixed after (7 years later) that was a tough lesson for myself to learn . I hope my story will help someone who is thinking about having plastic surgery in Mexico. Some people are lucky like my friend and other people but you never know if you will be part of that few. Please ladies research your doctors!

Maybe you didn't research your doctor very well. You are discrediting great doctors in other countries just because your experience didn't go well. It is very ignorant to say that great doctors only practice in the U.S.

Who said "great doctors only practice in the U.S."? if you read my story correctly, it clearly starts by saying "My friend had a breast augmentation here and her boobs came out good." with a closing of some people are lucky like my friend and other people. Im sharing my experience here. Clearing you need to read and understand the story before writing ignorant comments.

So true so people go to Mexico and come out looking great and then so many others botched. The lady up top clearly didn't read your review and it's true tho a U.S board certified plastic surgeon is a thousand times better than any surgeon in another country. It's not discrediting it's speaking the truth

Yes it can! The difference with having a procedure in the U.S. is we have more rights and if we can prove negligence on the p.s. part we can sue or settle. In Mexico or another country were straight outta luck. Unless the P.S. goes out of his way and helps you himself. Most likely they will charge you again. Don't get me wrong, My friend had the same doctor and amazing boobs. Mine just didn't turn out so well in Mexico. Now they are BOMB!!!
