    the prices are amazing, and it includes a 10 day stay at a resort. The groups in Bolivia and Brazil come highly recommended! I don't believe I will be going for about 2 years. I want to lose as much as possible, maybe even go below goal to get it all as tight as possible then gain a few back to fill it out better. I want face, brow, boobs, belly, arms, thighs. I will break it up into 2 visits. I am going all the way!! this is a 3 year journey for sure!

    What's the Bolivia info? Is it through an agency or a group of doctors you got info about? I'm all about cutting out the middleman, esp. if you want to cut costs-the agency is going to charge you more.

    mommy makeover is a breast fix & tummy tuck...the body lift is when they cut u in half at the waist, takes a 6 or more inches off all away around & sew u back up...basically its like pulling up your stretchys.....

    Most folks will develop a pannus which is a flap of excess skin that hangs at the bottom of the abdomen area. Depending on how much fat one carries in the abdominal area, this can extend below the pubic area. It can cause infections, etc... depending on if there are issues with excess skin later on, some insurances will cover skin removal.

    The one in Bolivia includes a 10 day stay at a resort. And I believe it is with cosmed as well.

    When I was at the recovery house for my sleeve with Dr Almanza there was a couple there who both had plastic work done. The husband had a tummy tuck, and the wife (1 yr out from her sleeve) had what she called a mommy-makeover. She had a tummy tuck, liposuction, and a boob job for $6500. They both looked great, and they were both super pleased with the results.
