Plastics recommendations
I live in Sacramento and went to Dr Sauceda in Monterry Mexico. I wanted it all done in 1. Work wouldn't let me keep taking time off. Dr Sauceda specializes in WLS patients.
There is a group here on OH for Dr Sauceda patients and those looking for PS.

Hi there,
I've just started looking into Dr. Sauceda and he sounds very promising. Besides the group here, does he also have a Facebook page? I found him on Realself.com, as well. What was your recovery like having so many procedures at once?
TIA

The secret FB group is for postops. Dr Sauceda talked about another FB group for prospective folks looking into PS.
The group here on OH does have info dating back to 2009 and several posts with questions, answers and lots of details when traveling for PS.
I took 8 weeks off for my recovery from LBL, BL, arms, sm thigh and a full facelift including upper and lower lids. I was almost 59. I had a very uneventful recovery. But, I followed the directions to the letter. No lifting, no exercise expect for walking for 6-8 weeks, wouldn't have been up to even then. I stayed in my garment for 3 full months, then nightly due to swelling.
You can look back at my posts Jan/Feb 2011 on the group page.

Okay, thanks for the info. I will go back to try to find those posts. I had heard his name before but had not started researching him until now.
