I am 1 week shy of 1 year post-op and at that point should have about 14 more lbs to lose...I DO NOT WANT CHILDREN so this is no issue for me.

I am ready for plastic surgery: My consult is Jan 5, 2010 with Emily Pollard is has performed 3 breast reductions on my co-workers and they praise her...She has been on Oprah and MTV and I like her thus far. I am having a reduction from a 38D to a 36/38 C which the insurance will cover. I am looking to have Brachioplasty and an Extended Tummy Tuck as well. I am looking to have my surgeries in May as soon as my semester at school ends.

Dr. Sauceda in Mexico gave me a great quote whi*****luded BA/BL, Arm Lift, Extended Tummy Tuck, and Fat Injections.

I had a phone consult with 2 surgeons in and around Philly and they advise approximately 13k for the arms and my tummy.

I am planning on using Cash and my maximum is 15k and I am so ready for it but would like to make the best decision possible.

I have a lot of feedback about Dr. Sauceda and think he is a great guy but prior to going with him I was just trying to find comparable surgeons in my area...ANY SUGGESTIONS. Thanks.

It was great. He is a very sweet, non-****y man who is humble and quite the artist! He cares about his patients and it is obvious. I am a happy camper...and miss Monterrey alot!! I very much enjoyed the whole ride.

Hey I'm from Philly too and researched s several of the the "top docs" from Philly mag and Main Line mag but they were all too expensive for me and they will be for your 15k budget as well.

I decided to go with Dr. Sauceda.

Thanks so much for the post...I did talk to 2 surgeons in the area and one quoted 13k for the amrs and tummy and one was 14k...Dr. Chapin was one...I know that the surgeon who is doing my breast quoted my co worker 5k for the arms...I am going to start doing extensive research in the beginning of the year and make my decision in March and hopefully have surgery in May.
