Ive Been Thinking About Having a TT! - Tijuana, MX

UPDATED FROM Martiny1009

Hello there everyone, On June 2, 2012 i went to...

WORTH IT$5,000
Hello there everyone,
On June 2, 2012 i went to my consultation. Met with Dr.Toledo for the first time very nice man answered every question i had, I am very happy w/ the Dr. i have chosen. He showed me a lot of before and after picture of his work, Very impressive. He recomended lipo in a few areas of my body to shape it so that my tummy matches the rest of my body. Nice!! im very excited and trilled to go on w/ this procedure. I still have the rest of this year to prepare for im not going through w/ the surgery till next year 2013. I've recently started a new job and wont have vacation time till next year. But thats ok!! I have also been thinking of getting the hump on my nose done just really scared of the pain i might be in If i get a Tummy tuck, Lipo and a Rhinoplasty "Wow how much pain will i be in". But i think i might just transform myself and get it all done at once. """IM SCARED""""

Glad you liked your doctor. That is so important. Good luck!
did you ever get that tummy tuck?
Did you get it? I’m considering this doctor
I had my work done by him back in June 2016 and after the last time I went for another consultation I would NOT go back with him. I had a full tummy tuck (round technique) with "Corset", lipo sculpture (arms, lower back, legs and stomach) and fat transfer to my buttocks. At first I was happy because I didn't have the "pooch" (I have 2 kids) but after everything was healed I practically looked the same. I looked "bloated" (I have pictures) and my buttocks still looked the same. Even months and years later I still felt like I didn't get the silhouette that I wanted. My waist looked the same and my hips too. I paid $6,500 for this work. I contacted him a couple of months ago to get more work done to finally get the body that I wanted and he totally stood me and my gf up! Mind you I was coming from Los Angeles (Torrance area) so we were VERY upset! He said he forgot to tell us that he had prior activities and to reschedule... Excuse me? Mind you, I wanted to get more work done on my body and my gf wanted to get a full tummy tuck and other work. Not only that, my gf had gotten an arm lift done with him (in 2017) and a face lift (in 2018 so we know him and he knows us VERY WELL). The arm lift was BAD, one was bigger than the other (we have pics) and his excuse was "it looks better than before"... WTF? He promised to fix the arm when she got her face lift and he did keep his work (Thank God). The face lift came out good (she's 90% satisfied) but there are still little things here and there that he needed to fix and he said he would when she got her tummy tuck. We are happy in a way that he stood us up because we found another plastic surgeon in Mexicali that is WAYYYYY better than Toledo. This other doctor actually posts all his work on FB (Pics and Videos), so you can see he actually does what he says he's going to do. My gf's sister went last week to get lipo-sculpture with him and it came out VERY NICE!! You can see the difference. Don't go with Toledo, you WILL REGRET IT the same way I did. Hope this helps!
Horrible job, not worth it!!!!!
What’s the information for the doctor in Mexicali ?
Toledo is the worst doctor ever!!!!

Well first off Hello to you all, My name is...

Well first off Hello to you all,

My name is Jessica, I live in Los Angeles Ca, and I am 26yr old. I am 5'2 and weight about 156. "never lost the baby weight!! you can say thats over weigh but i think i carry the weigh in the right places!!LOL I am a proud parent of a beutifull girl my pride, i love her to death. Its been 8 years since i had my daughter, But the outcome of having a child is ugly. I had my baby when i was 17yrs old so i was clueless on how your body changes after having a child. "Not cute at all" Strech marks, weight gain and a saggy belly to top it off . "Hate it" (why do women have to go through it & men have it easy) ugh!! Well N-E ways Ive been thinking about getting TT done for about a year now, and have decided that maybe i should trade the sagggy belly and strech marks for a TT scar. But i have my worries and I am scared " what if i dont like the outcome theres no turning back" A lot of the before and after pic. gives me doubts. some look good and some not so good. it all depends. I have a consultation Saturday June 2, 2012. "Thats a start". lets see how it goes . ill Update soon

Who is your consultation with? Welcome!
Thank you! My sister had breast augmentation in 2008 and referred Dr. Toledo. She was happy with her results!! So I ask her to give me the Dr. Email adress. He is located in Tijuana.
I've never heard of him before. I looked him up on the mexican board of plastic surgery website http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=es&u=http://www.cmcper.org.mx/&ei=Q9diTofNMsSjtgfH7JieCg&sa=X&oi=translate&ct=result&resnum=1&ved=0CBsQ7gEwAA&prev=/search%3Fq%3Dhttp://www.cmcper.org.mx/site/%26hl%3Den%26sa%3DG%26biw%3D1366%26bih%3D646%26prmd%3Divns and it doesn't look like he recertified. I have a date set with Dr Laura Cardenas in Tijuana but I think I might change to Dr Pantoja in TIjuana.
U should try other websites like makemeheal there are alot of girls who have been to Mexico and could give u a better review
