It is the norm. For Mexico. The sleeve has only become popular in the US in just the last 3 years. I feel that's why so many others are doing the DS instead of the sleeve because of the higher weightloss with the DS. I have several friends that would like to have there's redone because of the stretching that has happened to there sleeves.

Re: The final step, check ✔️
Congratulations! Thank you for sharing.
I loved reading your post. I started out at 352lbs and I am now 154lbs.
I was able to have my lower body lift in September, followed by a breast lift in November. I have two more surgeries to go and I will be completely finished with my journey.
I can relate to losing 200 pounds. It's amazing.
The only regret I have, is not being able to have GVS earlier in life.
Congratulations!
You look great. I am glad you feeling good, you're healthy and more confident.
Have a great week
