WORTH IT$9,000
My plStic surgeon is Dr.Nakano in Duluth GA. I am 5'2 at 135 pounds. A single mom in a very driven business.The price for my BA and TT was amazing. I had my preop on feb21 with my best friend. Now, I am having my surgery on this upcoming Wednesday. I am freakin out but constantly praying that everything goes excellent. I am a single mom that is pursing my dreams and my purpose. I believe this surgery will continue to bring out my very best. I'm just praying for the very best and not worrying about my results bc I trust my PS. Dr. Nakano staff is soooo amazing , patient, caring. Again, I'm nervous but am so ready to look at my new body. Those that believe in Christ pray for me ! I will keep everyone posted on my new body.

Just said a prayer for you! Are you getting silicone or saline? You did get a great price for your makeover!
March 18, 2013
Saline. First, they were 1,000 dollars cheaper. Also, saline is just salt water that is in the body. Silicone requires a MRI at least every 3 years. I wanted the very best job for my penny pocket. Lol

Thanks soooo much for the prayers. I need them bc I am wanting a great experience from this.

Good luck to you and try to get some rest tonight. Big day tomorrow. Can't wait to see your post-op pics!
March 20, 2013
Thanks ! I'm not sure if I will be able to sleep tonight. I'm trying to remain calm in it all. Pray pray pray

Yeah, I'm already sure I'll be taking Ambien the few nights before surgery. I'm not a good sleeper as it is and already having surgery dreams. Can't even imagine how I will be right before. Listening to white noise helps me sleep. Crashing waves, birds chirping. Gets my mind off of things. I also curl up with a heating pad, it knocks me right out. I hope you can get some sleep, but if not, you'll be sleeping plenty tomorrow! Looking forward to hearing how it all goes. Best of luck for an easy surgery and quick recovery!
March 20, 2013
Thank you sooo much ! I'm ready to have it done. I will sleep on the way there bc it takes 3 hours.
March 20, 2013
Dr. Nakano is AMAZING!!!! Two things...wear a t-shirt under your compression garment or else it will cut into you and cause blisters. Ask QUESTIONS! He is a type of person that will not freely tell you hints/tricks with aftercare unless you ASK!!!!
March 20, 2013
Thanks for the insight ! Did he perform your surgery ? Do u love your results. Do tell me more bc I can't sleep already.

Day of surgery, I wake up feeling sleepy, hungry, and a lil nauseous. I'm thinking my nerves are kicking in. I have showered with my anti-bacterial soap. I'm just waiting to leave for this 3 hour drive. I only slept for two hours last pm. I woke up praying this morning. I'm just so ready to get it over. If its The Lord will today.. My surgery should be completed by 1130 this am. I can't believe today is my surgery day. I have never had surgery before ... And to think its cosmetic ! I just want to have a wonderful experience from this entire process. I'm praying and praying and praying for mercy. I will update pictures by the afternoon. Thanks ladies for being so supportive ! Xoxox
