I've wanted to have a mommie makeover for about a year but every consultation I've had would cost so much. I'd end up being charged over $12,000. I was considering going over seas to have my procedure done but a few incidents occurring out there caused me to chicken out. I felt more comfortable closer to home with family. So looking through Real Self I came across 2 women who had their procedures don't here in NY in hospitals run by plastic surgery teaching services for a very reasonable price. Their experiences were updated about a year or two ago but they had great results and I decided to give it a shot.

Yesterday I met with Dr. Lao, a plastic surgeon at Lenox Hill Hospital Plastic Surgery Clinic (formerly known as Manhattan Eye, Ear & Throat Hospital). It is run by Plastic Surgery teaching services (hence the affordable price).

Staff members were kind and checked up on me while I waited for Dr. Lao to come see me after i undressed. He was very kind and patient. He explained to me the process, and let me ask him a billion questions.

The procedure I want to have done is a tummy tuck, breast lift, and liposuction of the waist and flanks. My price for everything is $6242.98. To that price I was told to add another $1000 or so because the day of surgery I will be taken to the hotel across the street with a nurse assigned to me for 24 hours, for monitoring, medication reminder, help getting up or moving around etc..

So far im comfortable about doing my procedure here and am looking forward to it. I'm looking to have it done the first week of June.

I will post pictures later on as the surgery date is closer but a little about me :
Height: 5'6
Weight: 165 lbs
Age: 23
I had bariactric surgery on 2012.
Lost about 90lbs which left me with drooping breasts and excess skin around my stomach, and am trying to have fixed ASAP!

I am also going to work out and eat healthy to lose between 10-15lbs for best results!!!
