Plastic Surgery Scheduled for June 24!



Recommended Posts

Ok I finally have my plastic surgery scheduled for June 24th! I'm going to be having a full Tummy Tuck, breast lift with augmentation( he's going to run the incision along the side of my boob as well because I used to have side fat which is now hanging skin) and also getting my arms done! I'm soo excited and can't wait till the day comes!! This was a shock as I didn't know how I would be able to afford it... My 5 year anniversary was Tuesday and my husband gave me a card with the exact amount of money for the procedure in it and said go get your surgery honey !!! I cried I was soo happy!!

Those are the same procedures I want done except I'm not sure if I want implants or just a lift. I'm a runner and have a D cup so I don't want to be any bigger.

Are you afraid of having them all done at once?

I've talked to my therapist about it and she is advising me to wait until August at least before I look into it (because of other stresses in my life at the moment). I live in Florida, so I didn't want the compression garments in the summer anyway.

No I'm not afraid!! I wish I could get a inner thigh lift as well but he said that's one too many procedures and I will have to wait for that one! Oh well! He said because I am in such good health and my body is in such great shape I will do great having multiple procedures at once. I know it will suck having to wear compression garments during the summer but I will just stay in the AC for the most part while healing so I should e ok. I am scared of the pain but I know that it will be ok after a while! As for the implants.. I am currently wearing a 32dd from Victorias Secret, but the cup had become to big... You can see my chest wall and my rib cage at the top portion of my breast and there's not much at the bottom. He said after the lift I will be lucky if they are even a B cup... There's just no breast tissue left at all! So that's why I am having implants placed under the muscle ! We are going back and forth between 325 and 350cc's...

That's exciting news! ! That was very nice of your husband! If you don't mind where are you doing your surgery? I've been looking into plastics myself but for next year and ice decided to do the tummy tuck plus my beat lift with implants as well but have not decided on my bat arms yet I'm so scared of the scars... what did your doctor tell you about the scars?

I live near Hampton Roads area in Va and I'm using Plastic Surgery Center of Hampton Roads. Dr. Vonu to be exact. He said the scars should fade nicely to almost invisible because of my skin time and my previous scars. .

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
