58 years old. Coronal brow lift, SMAS face lift, neck lift (corset platysmaplasty), tip rhinoplasty, upper/lower bleph, bullhorn lip lift (incision under nose), lip augmentation with my own fascia inserted.I decided on Dr. Pino after almost a year of research on the PlasticSurgeryJourneys.com forum. I highly recommend this doctor for facial procedures or breast work, and will be happy to answer any questions about my experience.

I stayed on Villa Le Mas aftercare facility and LOVED it! The setting is so beautiful - like paradise - that I didn't want to leave.
From: | 2011-11-25 18:39:35 Abilene,
The $2,350 was for rhinoplasty alone.

From: | 2011-04-07 19:24:32 drewdearest - I went in June both years. I am so sorry to hear of your disappointing (understatement?) experience. Have you seen another doctor about it to get an opinion? Is it possible that time may bring improvement?
The total costs for my two trips are in the post below. Individual procedure costs are as follows (includes a 10% cash discount). $4167 (facelift, browlift, necklift, upper/lower bleph).
$3,969 (breast lift with implants exchange). $2,350 (rhinoplasty). $3,340 (tummy tuck). $2,500 (back lift w/underarm tightening).

From: | 2011-01-21 14:27:06 Lyn2 - The 2009 trip cost around $13,500 total. This included 3 weeks in a gorgeous aftercare facility, 3 meals provided daily, and 2 weeks nursing care, & transportation to and from airport as well as pre-op and surgery transp. The procedures I had this trip were facelift,necklift,browlift,upper/lower bleph, lip lift with fascia, breast lift w/implants exchange, and rhinoplasty. Roundtrip airfare was about $350 from Arkansas.
The 2010 trip: $9250 total. Just 2 weeks in the aftercare facility this time, and procedures were - back lift w/undearm tightening, tummy tuck with lipo, left implant exchange (smaller), further lifting of left brow.
From: | 2011-01-21 14:05:52 Jannie - Sorry-I haven't logged in for so long! It was amazing to me how easy it was to adapt to the new face - probably since I liked it so much better! It wasn't "weird" at all to look in the mirror; it was reassuring. It did take me awhile before I stopped worrying that I might wake up in the morning and see the "before" face again, though!
From: | 2010-11-11 03:13:03 You're very pretty and I sense a new found contentment with yourself. I would bet that your high school cheerleaders would be green with envy. I too had the same type of lip lift (in surgeon's office with just nerve blockers), but the surgeon was conservative and didn't take enough skin out under nose. Just curious, approximately how much did your makeover package cost plus airfare, etc.?

From: | 2010-10-30 09:02:02 I am going for surgery too in Costa Rica and am wondering seriously does it feel weird to look at yourself in the mirror and see such a change?
From: | 2010-09-29 22:00:15 Thanks, Tess - you look great in that pic, too!
From: | 2010-09-16 12:31:58 Incredible
From: | 2010-09-09 19:20:35 Thanks, roverland - I really appreciate that. BTW, after contacting me for more information, two people that I know of so far on MMH have already gone to Costa Rica to have face lifts by Dr. Pino - and are very happy with their results.
From: | 2010-08-25 19:43:35 WOW, YOU LOOK AMAZING
From: | 2010-06-27 11:39:58 Thank you, Goldie and Inewell - you made my day!. Guess what? I'm in CR again right now - just had a TT and upper back lift two days ago with Dr. Pino.

From: | 2010-04-28 16:56:08 Thanks, angel and dealg! Note: I have answered flowingbrooke1's questions on the PSJ website.
From: | 2010-04-23 21:26:48 Hi tlc4me,
S.O.S…. In a few weeks, I’ll be in CR for FL and AL with Dr. Pino. If you have a moment, I wanted to ask you a couple of last minute questions about your facelift.
In viewing photos, it shows Dr. Pino is an excellent surgeon. He certainly brought your inner beauty outward! You truly look amazing. And, returning for additional work indicates confidence in his surgical ability. My question, are you heading back for revisions because you weren’t pleased with ‘some’ of his work? Or are you, like me, into the details? Having been an Interior Architect for years, I look at details of just about everything, good and bad.
Also, since I have a low tolerance for pain, does he use enough meds/morphine/etc. so you feel comfortable during the healing process?
Lastly, how was your experience in the clinic’s recovery area? Because you’ve already gone through what I’m about to go through I just need some reassurance. Thanks for any help!
