Booked with Dra Cardenas today!

[nurse247 74]

So I spoke with the kind lady at Beauty Enhance after the doctor reviewed my photos and made a recommendation. I decided to go with a royal lower body lift for the first procedure in my journey. I scheduled for this fall. I am beyond excited! Trying to think how I break this news to my boss....

I am not sure about speaking with her prior to surgery. I would assume at some point this would happen. Probably closer to actual surgery. I sent in my deposit today.

Hi have you been given a quote for the work

[907city2farmgrl 22]

How exciting for you! I booked with her as well. I just moved my date up to August 30th! So excited and nervous. I'm starting with BL/BA. I don't heal the fastest so I want to see how I do with the healing and scarring before I move on to the Royal lower body lift. I'm so tempted to start with the RBL, she does such good work!

Yes they gave me a very thorough quote. I talked it over with a lady in their office.

They had a special on her site for 10,500 for the royal body lift package.
Starting was 266
Goal is 130
Right now 146

I'm still losing but have slowed a lot. I have so much extra skin though it is ridiculous.

I'm 90% sure I'm going with Dr. Cardenas too. Will have the plastics in different stages because I'm an older WLS patient (52 now) with lots of excess skin. One thing that is holding me back is that 23 months out, I'm finding it harder to keep the bad habits at bay and am toying with getting therapy for behavior modification and stabilizing a bit better (behaviorally, i.e., controlling nighttime binges) before going under the knife. Congratulations on moving forward with you plans and please keep the updates coming!

Forgive my ignorance, but what is a royal body lift?
