Shantel Aiona

I have dealt with obesity all my life. I was 15 years old was the last time I felt comfortable wearing a sleeveless top. Then at 18 I lost 65 pounds & then found out I was pregnant. I gained over 120 pounds during my pregnancy and after I had my first son. Had 3 more children & never lost the weight. My highest weight was 332, I decided I wanted to change my life. It took 6 months, but got weight loss surgery (VSG) and now over 2 years I’ve lost 82 pounds. I tried to get skin removal surgery & was approved through my insurance BUT no plastic surgeon in Las Vegas would take insurance, I discovered medical tourism. I did the research & talked to many different coordinators & decided Mexico. I didn’t want to get my passport so I choose Matamotos, Mexico. I found Dr. Rafael Gonzalez coordinator & after 1000 of questions & talking to different patients, If you want to learn more about this journey then subscribe. Surgery date is 7/12/23
