"I went to Juarez, Mexico for some dental work and figured I’d also check into eyelid and under-eye surgery while I was there. I reached out to Dr. Flores Soto, his main medical assistant, Alejandra, and his team were amazing. Everyone was really professional, friendly, and made me feel comfortable the whole time. My first visit for my surgery consultation, I received Botox and Lip Filler, and he made me look very natural, not overdone. I just had my Blepharoplasty procedure almost a week ago, and so far I’m really happy with how everything went. I will be returning to remove my stitches, and I look forward to getting a chemical peel while I am there. Big thanks to Raquel and Dr. Flores Soto’s team for taking such good care of me!

"Raquel at Placidway was beyond amazing. She helped me connect with different clinics and continuously followed up with me. Her concern for my comfort and safety was prominent in her regular check-ins with me; which I was so grateful for.
Placidway definitely hires the most caring and compassionate people to assist with clients in need of navigating through the world of plastic surgery. It's almost impossible to manage the research on your own.
I chose Limo Plastic Surgery, because Dr. Kwon was the ONLY surgeon who took time to speak to me in person over Zoom. Not only did he show up, he continued to consult with me AFTER the one hour consultation was up. He answered all of my questions that day and more questions afterwards to ensure I was confident with my decision. He showed so much kindness, compassion and knowledge that he was the obvious choice for my surgery. He clearly cares about his patients and has decades of experience to perform the procedures excellently.
His English translator Jessie was absolutely phenomenal!! She went above and beyond to ensure I was well taken care of before, during and after my procedure. She practically held my hand the entire way. I couldn't have managed this trip and surgery without her.
The entire experience went so smoothly. I was comfortable the entire time and ecstatic with my care and results.
I highly recommend Placidway and Limo Plastic Surgery."
