 I am so excited!  Not yet nervous, but I'm sure the closer I get to the date, I will be.  I'm scheduled for Lower Body Lift, Breast Lift, Breast Augmentation, Arm Lift and small inner thigh lift on June 9th, 2015 in Monterrey, Mexico by Dr. Sauceda.  Has anyone else had all these done at the same time or gone to Mexico for this surgery?

I had all of that ,except the breast aug,plus I had face and neck work,16 months ago with Dr. Sauceda. The team is awesome and you will be in great hands.

edited to add he has a "secret" Facebook group for those with confirmed,by airline tickets,patients plus those post op. I will get someone to pop over here and post the info.

I am 3 weeks out from surgery with Dr Sauceda. I had an upper body lift, arm lift, breast lift and augmentation, lipo, and neck. Everything went very well and my recovery has been far easier than I expected.

You’ll be in great hands!

Thsnk you! Do you have before and after pictures? I've read so many great things about Dr. Sauceda. I believe I made the right choice. Do you mind me asking how much you paid? Did you go to Mexico alone?

I’ve posted before and after photos on our Facebook group. As you have a confirmed date for your surgery, you are eligible to be a part of the group. Contact Stephanie Johnson to be added: https://www.facebook.com/stephanie.johnson.72763?fref=ts It is wonderful group of people and a great resource.

Yes, I went to Monterrey on my own. I don’t speak any Spanish, and I managed just fine. Dr Sauceda is a great surgeon and artisan. His wife is the anesthesiologist; she is very gifted. Paty, the angelic nurse who visits patients daily once they are released to the hotel for dressing changes, etc. is one of the very sweetest people I’ve ever met. They are all extremely kind and humble people, as are the hotel staff.

Dr Sauceda’s pricing is based on each person’s unique situation, so there is no point in comparing prices. Even if we were having the same procedures, my surgery could take an additional 2-3 hours – that is reflected in the pricing. There are so many variables (ie: how long a person has been overweight, age, how much the person has lost, etc). It would be like comparing a watermelon with a banana.

Good luck to you.

I forgot to mention that Dr Sauceda's patients do have a discussion group on OH. It is:

http://www.obesityhelp.com/group/Dr_Sauceda_Patients/discussion/

I'd suggest re-posting to that group.

Here's a link to Dr Sauceda's base, stand-alone procedure prices.  As you combine procedures, the cost goes down. Cost for Procedures 

Dr Sauceda will be in Tyler, TX on June 26th & 27th for consults.  More information is available on the OH group.  You can click on Dr Sauceda in my siggy line.
