    Default Question about skin removal done in mexico....

    I know I'm going to need skin removal done in the future. Has anyone here had it done in mexico because my insurance doesn't cover it. What did you have done and how much did it cost? Were you happy with the results? Thank you in advance!

    Yes. Good question. If I do any skin removal it would be my thighs. And, a boob job. My poor boobies are sad now. LOL. Small price to pay though.

    I had major skin removal in Mexico with Dr Sauceda. I was very happy with process and results!

    Do a lot of research. Of all the procedures done, thighs were the poorest results - like some of the inner thigh fat/cellulute pockets returned. Breasts, lower body lift and arms have been great!
