Awesome NSV

[jess9395 5,449]

So my surgeons medical group wanted to do an article featuring his program for their foundation magazine and the surgeon and his coordinator recommended me for the article.

I got to do a photoshoot and they interviewed me for the article. My surgeons office liked the pic so much they asked to use one for their new patient info packet.

Wanted to share some of the pix! These were done two weeks post plastics (breast lift/Aug, Tummy Tuck and brachioplasty) so there's actually some residual swelling, but no complaints here. I've since chopped my hair to above my shoulders so I almost want to get another set of pix done, LOL, to show that off!

How long was your recovery from the plastic surgery? I know my arms, at least, are going to need it in a year or 2 after I"m done losing! LOL!

Looking great!

Yesterday's NSV for me.....bought the smallest size pants I've ever bought! WOO HOO!

Thank you! Great job on the pants!!!

I was up and about two weeks after surgery, driving and all. Got back to running and yoga six weeks post. Still recovering in some ways now--lots of numbness, a bit of swelling (honestly I'm the only one who can tell), a few of my incisions are still "spitting" internal stitches. But I would say I felt "normal" a month out.

I searched all over, Mexico, Costa Rica, all over my state (CA, it's a big one!). Interviewed/visited five surgeons in person and emailed back and forth with three. Would probably have done Mexico except I came into an unexpected inheritance which was almost exactly why my favorite CA surgeon quoted me for my three procedures. So I had it done in Santa Barbara, CA.

There's a whole thread on costs of plastic surgery in that sub forum you should check it out!

[ProudGrammy 8,322]

about how much did that cost (face lift)

@@Jessica Ellison-Correa

prices wll vary for charge of any plastics

whether you have Tummy Tuck, thighs, boobs, face lifts - etc will all cost different

cities, states. countries will vary

and what part of the body you want "worked on

i talked with 3 docs to compare prices

they all said $8,000.00 (or very close)

additional $2,000.00 cost for the hospital!!!

egads that is a lot of money!!!

i finally feel i am worth it

i have taken myself off the rear burner

as with the sleeve - having the face lift was great, worth every penny!

i look skinny and cute as a button - "BEAUTIFUL"

please know i'm teasing (kind of)

pics to be posted soon

film at 11:00 pm

good luck
