Tummy, Arms, Boobs, Oh My!



Recommended Posts

O.k. Does anyone know what the rules are on how much you can get done at the same time. I mean, what is a mommy makeover? Can you get a combo? i.e. arms/tuck or boobs/tuck ? Can you get arms/tuck/boobs?

It all depends on the doctor. I asked the same question at 3 different consults and got 3 different answers. Tummy Tuck takes a while so I think it depends on what ones you choose together.

It depends on who does your work. There is a doc in Monterrey I'm considering once I can mantain my goal and he will do TT/arms/breasts in one surgery. He has a pretty loyal following here: http://www.obesityhelp.com/group/Dr_Sauceda_Patients/discussion/

Your title made me laugh. That's how I'm feeling these days plus some thighs in the mix!

A "Mommy Makeover" is usually Boobs either lift or augmentation or both and Tummy Tuck. they may be able to add another short procedure but depends on surgeons.

I can't imagine the pain from having all 3 done at the same time. But, I also like the idea of not going "under" 2 more times.

Those are all the plastics I'm looking into as well. I'll probably have them done 2yrs from now. I'm no where near goal and that's when the finances will be available. Hopefully the surgeon I'm considering Dr. Carmina Cardena's in MX would be able to perform all three..Im crossing my fingers for that.. She's called the queen of TT and I seriously want her to work on me..her TT are beautiful!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
