And I was also wondering how long the recovery might be on average. Thank you to whoever can shed some light on these questions!

Define the word recovery. Able to resume normal activities OR your old self? I was cleared to go back to work and start exercise (beyond walking)again at 6 weeks. I was cleared for all activities at 8 weeks. In reality I didn't really feel like doing really active stuff like horse back riding, hard workouts etc until 10-12 weeks. I wore compression garments longer than required to keep swelling down. I was probably 3-4 months before I felt normal with minimal swelling.

Real self is a source for rough pricing info. I was always quoted multiple procedures. Also prices vary.

For me it was worth it. I am transformed.

<p>Hi, Mal0712</p> <p> </p> <p>A body lift is not a procedure, it is a combination of procedures that when put together are refer as LOWER BODY LIFT or UPPER BODY LIFT.</p> <p>Lower body lift: Leg lift, Tummy Tuck, liposuction, buttock lift, fat transfer to the buttock,</p> <p>Upper body lift: Breast lift, reduction, augmentation, reconstruction, arm lift, Lipo, </p> <p> </p> <p>If you tell me abit about your current condition I will be able to guide you better.</p> <p> </p> <p>Just a bit of advice, WHATEVER YOU DO, LEAVE YOUR BREAST PROCEDURE FOR LAST. trust me.</p> [/QUOTe

I haven't had the bypass yet. Basically my PCP told me she is 100% sure that I will have to have my arms, legs, tummy, butt, boobs, and possibly chin area done after surgery. Basically head to toe surgery. I was wanting to see an average amount spent on having all this kinda work done so I know how much I will looking at having to save up.

I had several different consults before having plastics and notice there are lots of theories. There are plenty of people who have breasts done at the same time as a lower body lift like I did. Worked out great and for me having fewer number of surgeries was a priority. To each his/her own.

I do think that the "body lift" - for most of us that is a lower body lift is the foundation procedure and really should be done at the beginning of the plastics journey as it does kind of create the canvas. I look at pix right after my surgery versus now and frankly i had immediate results, I was already fit and had good am muscles so once the skin was gone i had a flat tummy before the many weeks in compression garments. I am 8 months out from pretty extensive plastics and very pleased with results. I weigh 10 pounds less that I did at date of plastics.

      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.
