Cali Specialists Breast and Belly

I have wanted to have my breasts done for years.  They are severely uneven and I have always said that I would have it done "someday".  I had an estimate done YEARS ago - was told to lose weight first and then quoted a LARGE amount.  And I paid a large amount just to have the consult/quote done. :(
I am only six months out from my sleeve.  But as I know I will have to self pay - I was hoping that some people would know the estimated costs of breast augmentation for assymetry and tummy tuck here in SoCal.  I would have to save, and probably wouldn't have the surgery until after my year surgiversary.  I have only lived here a couple years, and Cali has a rep for the place to be for plastics lol.
Any recommendations on where to go?  There are a million billboards, but for some reason that has the opposite of their desired effect on me - it seems too weird to say I got my surgeon from his billboard.  I am hoping for someone experienced with both assymetry and WLS tummy tuck.  Preferably someone giving free consultations.  
Any pointers??  Names?  Costs?

Thanks all!!

I went to Dr. Sauceda in Monterrey Mexico. He does a fabulous job. I was there in December. I'm going back with a friend next week.

Going with him includes so many things. Surgical garments. I was in a clinic for I've nights, then a hotel for seven nights. He came to the hotel daily to check on me. His nurse came daily to bathe me, wash my garments and redress my incisions. It also includes up to $600 airfare reimbursement if you spend over $7k. He also provides airport pickup and drop off. I can't say enough good things about my experience.

Come join the Dr. Sauceda OH group. Check with acbrown. She's going in November.

Free consult. You send your pics to [email protected] and get a quote back within a day. Tell him that Lee sent you! I'm happy to answer any questions.

 I knew acbrown was going in November, but I bug her a lot already lol.  I will have to pick her brain.  I am a little afraid of going out of the country, I will admit that.  

I will email him tho.  If I can work up the nerve to take my own pics.  Ugh - I hate looking at myself naked. lol

Thank you Lee - I do appreciate the recommendation.  Where can I find the group??

Hi there,
I am in So Ca as well and I have not had any reconstructive surgery as of yet ( I have lost 115 lb's through diet and exercise) , but I am gearing up to go for my consults after my B-day in Nov. I have researced a few surgeons in the area and I will be going to see Dr. Agha in Newport beach, I know he does free consultations and fixes assymetry (I know because I have the same issue and want to get it fixed too!) he does augmentation with or without implants, and without he uses your own excess body tissue (for patients with massive weight loss) to rebuild and and reshape the breasts, this is what I am hoping to do! There is another member on this board who had work done by him recently and her results are great! He has many before and afters on his site, I would recommend looking him up! Good Luck!  His name is Siamak Agha in Newport Beach Ca (I may have spelled his fist name wrong??)

 I think If I had unlimited $$ and patience for multiple recoveries - I might have went with Dr. Agha. 

But you can bug me about surgery with Dr. S - while I'm really scared to leave the country to do this, I dont think I'll ever find a Dr. like Dr. S - i loved him from the minute I met him. It's coming up soon, so I'll have lots to share wiht you soon enough :)

 Lisa, what do you want done? What country? How many recoveries? What combination of procedures?  Also in consideration is age, skin elasticity, we're you morbidly obese? How much did you lose?

I think doctors evaluate everything in giving quotes.  Kaiser said four recovery periods for $55k. I paid less than half with one recovery.

Hope that helps.
