Preparing For Lower Body Lift With Anchor Incision

[Karen12345 61]

I'm having a breast lift with implants and a neck lift in August (total $7900 with all costs except travel and the recovery boutique) and then a thigh lift at about $3000 probably in October. Then the arms... I was totally shocked at how good my stomach came out! All of my stretch marks are gone and that picture is with swelling.

Wow skinny Jill that's a lot. I ate really healthy before and took lots of Vitamin c. I think it's different for everyone. I did a lot of research and so I expected a lot of pain. Oh, wear the compression garment all of the time.

Please let me know how it goes for you. I flew out there and met him and checked out the place. He has great reviews and I was very impressed when I was there. Met post op patients and they were all happy.

I will be having lower body lift, liposuction on thighs and lower back and inner thigh lift all at once! I will for sure keep you all posted...I hope my tummy looks as good as yours

Karen,

Who was your surgeon in Houston? I am in Houston and Dr. Patronella is my surgeon.

Karen, Your TT is fantastic, I'm having a facelift in Cancun August 7th. My face seems to have dropped terribly I guess a combination between weight loss and age. I don't seem to see many people on here that have had to have facelifts. I guess it effects everyone differently. I've drifted a little off subject. I just wanted to tell you how great you look.

[Karen12345 61]

Danielle, I never found out how much weight she took off but I know it was a good chunk. I had been maintaining my weight for several months at 153 and then 3 weeks before my tt, I had a complete unfill. Due to nervousness about the upcoming surgery and finally being able to eat, I gained up to 165 on the day of my surgery. When I went home from surgery I was the exact same 165. So I don't know if it was swelling equal to the fat she took off or what. It's 2 1/2 weeks later and I'm down 5 lbs. Somthe answer is I don't know. She didn't tell me and I've never asked.

Kimaly, I am having a neck lift and breast lift with augmentation in August by Dr Quiroz in Tijuana. The total cost is $7900 with anesthesia and facility charges. It will be extra for the recovery boutique. I have a lot of hanging skin on my neck and my poor breasts are flat as pancakes.

LOL, I had a Breast reduction before I had WLS and by 1 year out I had no breast left so I went back for implants. Now I love my girls. I'm going to Cancun for facelift, necklift, upper and lower eyes and a little fat transfere to the nasal folds my total cost except for flight is $ 5000. I'm ready, I've worked really hard to lose that weight and am not ashamed of what I want. I get a lot of crap from people saying you should just be happy with the loss (I'm over the sky with the loss) But also so feel I should be able to reward myself if I want. Never been much of one to care what others thought of me. More like the love me, like me or leave me kinda gal

[Karen12345 61]

Limply, good for you. I'm having a breast lift with implants and a neck lift in August and people give me a hard time about the neck lift but I have to see it all of the time and I'm paying for it, so I really don't worry about what others think.

I'm using Dr Quiroz for the rest of my reconstructive surgery. He is great. I had my tt done here in Houston 2 weeks ago.

It looks perfect!!
