Looking for Plastic Surgeon in So. Ca.

Who did you use and were you happy?
Thanks!

So Cal is chokablock with plastic surgeons -- My advice is to start with your own doctor's recommendations, and go from there.

I live in SoCal, but due to the inflated prices here (and my pennilessness) have actually decided to hop right across the border to Mexico!  I agree with the poster above.  It's difficult to narrow it down, so it might be helpful to go through your WLS physician or even PCP to get a recommendation.

Hi,
Who did you use in Mexico?

Hiyas, I am going in the summer.  I can give you the information for the patient coordinator I'm working with if you're interested.  She's great!  I had my VSG in Tijuana, and honestly felt that the care I received was not adequate.  This time for plastics I did a lot more research and got so many recommendations!  I'm going to Mexicali and have a choice of three surgeons (Manjarrez, Luque or Gaspar) but I'm leaning toward Manjarrez because I like his conservative approach.  I will probably be paying upfront for a breast lift and augmentation (but hoping I don't need an implant) and a little liposuction of the trunk and hips, something to make my tooshie look better.  I feel comfortable with this doctor because the patients I spoke to said that he actually suggested that the patient didn't need implants and refunded her money.  That's the kind of physician I want!  Someone who's looking to give results, not get as much money as possible

Thank you..I was wondering if it is Dr. Sauceda in Monterrey..that is the surgeon I have chosen if I do decide to go to Mx...which is most likely what I will do.

Oh nope, I decided against Sauceda when I saw his mixed reviews.  Keep us updated on what you do decide!  I got quotes here in the suburbs of LA and it would cost me upwards of $30k!

Dr. Katzen, Dr. Katzen, Dr. Katzen!

He's amazing!!! I'd be happy to share photos if you want to contact me.
