Hi there,

I'm new to posting in the PS forum.  I have been looking through posts but can't find all the information I am looking for so forgive me if these questions have been asked already.

I have about $30k in cash to pay for PS.  I am in need a FULL body lift.  I went from 370 to about 137 now so everything needs to be lifted/cut off.  I'm guessing I can't afford a doctor in the states paying cash?  If anyone has a referral to a surgeon in the states that I could afford please let me know.  I had my VSG proceedure done in Mexico and have no problem going to Mexico again for PS.  Does anyone have a favorite surgeon in Mexico and about how much you had to pay and what that covered?

Thank you for any help/tips/advice you can give me...

Several of us are going to Dr Luque in Mexicalli in October.  I am having an extended TT with lipo and arm lift for round #1.  In round #2 I am having a thigh lift and BL/BA.    Friend is having BL/BA, extended TT and Butt Lift for round #1, and thigh lift for round #2.

We also had our VSG in Mexico and researched for a year before deciding, and only after consulting several with photos, phone calls and referrals. 

I guess in a month or so, we will know more about how we feel as we will be recovering.

You're doing exactly the right thing by asking others, so keep asking lots of questions!

Good Luck

You should see some local docs before youdecide you cannot pay someone here - 30 k is a lot of money!!

I agree that 30k will pay for a lot of plastics in the states. You might want to check that out first before looking out of country.

Everything I had done was around $27K.  It was done in the states.
