Post by: geeky_jamie on June 19, 2016, 05:40:14 AM
Hi again.  Well after 3 different consultations, I have chosen dr Lorenzo Cardenas for my ffs for may 2017, already paid for and waiting.  Anyone on here willing to share their experiences with him?

Is there a reason why the wait is that long if you already paid ? i always thought one can pay him and just get it the next or two months ...Is he becoming that popular ?

We sometimes have patients that plan their surgeries well in advance for their own reasons.  Patients who have some flexibility to their schedules can usually have their surgery scheduled with Dr. Cardenas within a month or two.

Oh ok cool I been putting off surgery with Cardenas (or anybody for years ) because I don't know what I need lol ). My girlfriend just had surgery with him down there with silicone removal(and the forehead thingy )  and he Cardenas did a fierce lovely job

I saw Cardenas in April 2015 and am pleased with the results.


Because of my age, I was warned I might want to consider a facelift after I recovered fully. And in fact I am considering that now.
