Sassygirl06 962 Posted August 29, 2013 Yay! For you! I am right ahead of you for plastics. Having my tt on 9/10 and breast lift/augment on 10/22! I will be posting before and after soon! I didn't lose quite as much as you, but I am feeling good with the size I made it to....now can't wait to get these next two surgeries, and be done with this journey! Congrats to you!

ArtistNic 13 Posted August 29, 2013 You look fantastic. I showed my husband and he said what skin does she need to remove, she looks great! So just curious. I am pretty sure I will need to do plastic as well. did you get it covered by insurance? and if not what is the price range you have found? I havne't been able to find a price for it being done.

You're right, I don't have a lot, but I do have a muffin top that will not go away no matter what I try. My abs are doing well, but they are hard to find underneath the roll! I would also love to get my arm flaps removed, my boobs lifted and maybe my thighs. What gets done, however will be determined by what my insurance will cover and hopefully I will find that out when I have my consultation. I have no idea about the cost yet, I just know that my policy will cover "skin removal after excessive weight loss". Since their definition of excessive is 100 lbs, I decided to pursue it. Maybe it's just vanity...I just turned 53 after all! Thanks for the encouragement everyone! 1 JourneyToLife reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sassygirl06 962 Posted August 30, 2013 My insurance won't cover any skin removal so I am self pay. I could have gone to the first plastic surgeon I had a consult with in Beverly Hills and have saved a couple thousand, but my local doctor had better results. I saw his before and after scars and they were magnificent! So I am shelling out $17000 for the Tummy Tuck and boob lift with implants. Thankfully I have been saving for a while so I will be paying cash! Yeah! I thought about going to Mexico for plastics, but I feel more comfortable being closer to home, and closer to the surgeon for follow up care. Can't wait! Totally in count down mode! 12 more days till tt! 2 wildcatteacherlady and ArtistNic reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
