I was/am in my late 40’s when I had it done.

As @catwoman7 alluded to, you are never too (chronologically) old to want to look and feel awesome.

Check out Vera Wang (the famed bridal designer). She’s 70. Seventy!!

I hope to join the Wang gang too. ❤

Wow that is cheap. I have read that Miami is a great place to go but of course that’s just googling stuff. I do have lots and lots of airline miles saved up. 🤔. At those prices I can toss in a new set of Tatas too 🤣Thank you. I’m sorry but what is br/bl/ba?

My tatas! LOL!! Breast Reduction/Breast Lift/Breast Augmentation. Basically, I'm having a lift and reduction, but then getting implants too for fullness/shape.

Well I sure do not need a reduction I may be on the edge of needing a lift. I’m soooooo excited for you. I can not wait to hear about your experience. I pray you have a quick
recovery.

I was supposed to start my whole "body contouring" journey on May 5 but of course it was delayed so I can tell you exactly what my estimates are. I'm not using insurance. I rescheduled for Aug. This is what my doctor has recommended for me for best results and this is what I'm going to do. I know other people that have done things differently...my friend did arms and thighs together...big mistake! She was miserable! I can't wait! I'm ready now!

Phase 1: LBL with fat grafting to butt, and brachioplasty $16,000. Estimated 8 hrs of surgery. One night in hospital.

Phase 2: Upper body lift, (breasts and back) $11,000. Estimated 5 hrs of surgery. Outpatient.

Phase 3: Thighplasty and fat graft to breasts. $8,900. Estimated 3.5 hrs of surgery. Two nights in hospital.

Oh I hope all goes well. I hate that it was pushed. I know you had to have been all psyched up.

Can I ask where you are having surgery?

I went to Mexico. $10,500 for 360 LBL, BBL, Lipo in 3 sections, and male chest reduction. Price included 2 nights at the hospital + 8 nights recovery at the Hyatt hotel where they had 24/7 nursing. I did have to pay about another $1k for first class flights to get there and back, but that could have been cheaper if I went coach. Flew into San Diego, CA, and they had a driver pick me up and drive me across the border (about a 45 minute drive from San Diego to the hospital in Mexico).

Researched and found a surgeon I liked. Followed the surgeon's daily procedures on Instagram and Facebook for nearly a year, and interacted with LOTS of his past patients in the FB group to get a good comfort level.

I had a modified TT (no muscle tightening and had some Lipo conturing and an extended brachio (incision went from elbow all the way under the bottom of each breast) for 15K. My consults quotes ranged from 12-17K. Check out the real self website for prices and it may give you links to surgeons with a free or a discounted consult in your area. My surgery was more complicated due to prior surgeries/scars so the surgeon I chose proposed a different technique to get the best result. I am so glad I went to several consults because after each one if left me with some thoughts and new questions for the next consult. You probably would not test drive one car and buy it so it's worth the time and $$ to get different opinions.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
