Here are some photos of my thighs. I know this surgery is going to be a [RS bleep], but I can't wait. Need my legs to match the rest of my body!

We just uploaded a new video that may help with pre-surgery jitters, if you have them. I've included both the RealSelf and YouTube links.

Wishing you the best of luck and I am looking forward to following your journey. I had a thigh lift (vertical and medial incision). It was hard going, much harder than i was expecting but still worth it, buy yourself a female urinal bottle and a leg raiser wedge, also a raised toilet seat with arms.

It really helped, I had a go girl in the hospital that I stuck in a men's bottle which did save me in the hospital, but it was harder to use and I did pee in my bandages and the floor a couple of times, oops :(. I tried to sit on the toilet seat, but it was excruitiating. I got the proper one when I got home which I used for weeks.

Your thighs are very similar to mine so I can't wait to see your progress! Very much looking forward to reading about your journey and wish you all the luck in the world! x

Best of luck!! I laughed when I saw those pics because I am always grabbing my thighs like that saying "I want this to be gone!" And "I want them to look like this". Wish I had your courage!!

I can't wait to see your results. My thighs have always been large and I just turned 60 and thinking about a face lift and a thigh lift. Can you tell me the approximate cost and amount of time you will spend in Tijuana?

Usually around $4,000. Every price is based on your body. I will spend 8 days down there.

I just got back from Tijuana. What a great trip. Once again Dr. Cervantes and Dr. Aragon and their staff have made my experience so easy. They always treat me like family and not just a number.
I went for my consult and Dr. Cervantes discussed my blood level. My hemoglobin number was 11.4. I was hoping for much higher. I wanted lots of lipo but the doc wasn't budging. Safety first is his motto. So instead of lipo that would have taken so much blood I decided to get my boobs re-lifted and bigger implants.
Once again I received wonderful pain management. I was not nervous at all.
I woke up super groggy and it took a while to come out of it. Very little pain. I love the hospital and the nurses. They have always responded promptly and speak English. I know if something is overlooked at the hospital, the doctor's staff is quick to correct the situation.
I stayed in the hospital for a day and then went to the Recovery Boutique for 5 days.
My thighs look amazing. I am still a thick girl but the doctor took the loose skin off. The incisions are straight and hidden. Very sore.
My breast lift looks amazing also. There was nothing really wrong with my last lift, I just like the look of a higher areola. Plus, I wanted a larger implant. I went from a 410 to a 485cc.
The worst pain of all was the lipo I got on my chin and top of my back. Which I call my "Hump". Lipo is a [RS bleep]!!!!!
I am sore but happy I am home. Following doctor's orders. Staying in bed and taking all my meds. I have to send in photos weekly for the doctors to review my progress. I love that they are just a phone call away.
I love Dr. C and Dr. A. I would recommend these doctors a million times over. One day I will go back for ................something!!!!!! LOLOLOL. There is always room for improvement. I will post photos soon
