7 Things I Learned About Plastic Surgery

[sandi2004 2]

I’m Sandi. I was banded almost 6 years ago and have lost 250 lbs. I love Banded Living.

Needless to say I was left with a lot of excess skin, so I chose to have plastic surgery, and I’ve been really happy with the results. I’ve had a lower body lift, breast lift and augmentation, and had the batwings under my arms removed.

I’m glad I did my homework before surgery.

Here are the 7 things, I learned about plastic surgery after weight loss surgery:

1. Interview several doctors

2. Easy access to your surgeon is important for follow up care.

3. Experience with weight loss surgery patients is critical.

4. You must be totally comfortable with this doctor.

5. Let your weight stabilize for at least 6 months before having surgery

6. You want a surgeon who is certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery.

7. Make sure the surgeon uses an accredited facility.
