I am going to Dr. Aceves on August 5th in Mexicali. I did a great deal of research before selecting him. He is not the cheapest surgeon there, but I wanted the best I could find. I will be in the hospital three nights and have three leak tests. Here, I would have paid $20,000 to $25,000 for one night in the hospital and one leak test. The cost of surgery with Dr. Aceves is $8,750. I am in Columbia.
Which MD are you going to see? I think that's what I'm going to do as well. Any help/advice is appreciated. Where are you in the state?
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our Light, not our darkness that most frightens us.
We ask ourselves -- Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?Actually, who are we not to be?
You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people do not feel insecure around you. We were born to manifest the Glory of God that is within us. It is not just in some of us, it is in everyone.
And as we let our light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fears, our presence automatically liberates others.

HUGS. Thanks a lot for sharing.. you are wonderful .. it is you - just looking younger.. (and happier)
If it not too much to ask - Would you mind telling me - if you know how much that (roughly) can cost?
I heard really good stories about that doc. I am in SC and I got quoted 2 years ago for just full face work..
I wonder how much would that cost with "your" doc... and then see what are any extra costs (travel, companion travel, etc..) Also - how long do you think a stay in Mexico will be needed ? 1-2 weeks?

Dr S alternates between the east coast and the west coast. Next summer he'll probably be back in Las Vegas. He generally goes where he can take his family. I know there are 2 or 3 ladies coming down from Atlanta.
You can always just take pics of your front, side, back and other side and send to [email protected]
He'll send you back a quote within a few days.
We have a pretty active group here on OH. Click on Dr Sauceda in my siggy line and it'll take you over there. We also have a private FB group - BodyBySauceda.

I would love to have a consultation with him, but Orlando is bit far for me. Maybe one day (soon?) he would come to Atlanta GA or Charlotte, NC?
If so - let me know if you can..
