Tummy tuck, breast lift and augmentation I have finally made it!

[Sassygirl06 962]

I was sleeved on August 16 2011. I have been sitting at around 170 pounds for about 4 months now, and I feel very comfortable at this weight. My surgeons goal weight for me was 190, however I had set my own personal goal for 150. I have tried to lose more, however I a lot of excess skin on my stomach. I have finally made the decision to get plastics. I was originally going to go to a surgeon that I had found in Beverly Hills who was going to charge me $14500 total for breast lift with Gummy implants, and a tummy tuck...however he wanted to do an anchor incision for my Tummy Tuck. Not wanting that added scare going up the middle of my tummy I sought out another doctor for a second opinion. I have had many recommendations for the doctor I went to next, and when I met him and saw his before and after photos I knew I had found the plastic surgeon for me...bonus, he never even mentioned having an anchor incision! The only thing is that he will only do the two procedures separately. He explained the mortality rate for plastic surgery is 1 in 40,000, however once you combine surgeries like the two I am having the mortality rate goes up to 1 in 4000. While that is still a low rate, he doesn't feel comfortable with the number. So long story short, I will now have to have two separate surgeries, and it will be costing me an extra $3000 because of it....but like I said, this guys before and after pictures, along with the scars were amazing! My surgery dates are set...September 10th, the day after my birthday, for my tummy tuck. October 22nd for my breast lift with implants! I am so excited to finally get to my ultimate goal!!! Being healthier, happier, and sexier! I will post before, during, and after pictures on here once I get closer to my surgery...I know how curious I was when I was just beginning this process...and all the pictures and posts helped me make so many decisions in this long process. Wish me luck! oh...I will not be showing my face as no one knows of my vertical sleeve surgery except my husband and daughter.
