Amazing results! I'm so glad I took this opportunity to do something positive for myself. The whole experience was fairly easy and pain was a not an issue. I'd do it over again in a second, no hesitation.

My doc was/is awesome and kind. Bonus that he's cute too! Lol - not the intimidating kind of cute, but the warm & caring kind. He's easy to talk to and soft spoken. Dr C is more on the conservative side and I didn't want to go too big with my breast augmentation.

He recommended Natrelle 465cc high profile saline implants (overfilled to 500cc.) For personal reasons I did not want silicone (there wasn't much of a price difference.) My breasts were more sore than the tummy tuck! I was off pain meds after the fourth day.

The price is not a typo. It was $5356.00 for BOTH breast augmentation and full tummy tuck.

Age 34, had a few kids via c-section. 5'1" tall, weight 108-112 pre-babies. Current weight 124. Works out regularly (cardio & weights) but could not get rid of my "kangaroo pouch" on my abdomen and I no longer had boobs after I had my babies! Lol - so I did this for myself, no one else. I wanted improvement, not perfection. With most things in life, I think our attitudes either help or hinder us. I hope all of you have wonderful results and a speedy recovery!

Thank you! The pain wasn't bad at all, especially the tummy tuck. I'm so glad I got the chance to have surgery, well worth it!

What a price! Dr. C. might be getting some out-of-town traffic coming to his office now. :)

Thanks so much for sharing your story and photos with us here on RealSelf. You truly look fabulous and I hope you enjoy your hot new bod this summer.

What is the name of Dr. C's office? & do u know if they have a website? I am looking into getting the same thing you got done so would like to talk to him. You look Awesome!! Are you still happy with what he did?
Mamaof3 10 Jul 2011
Sorry for taking so long to reply but it's been hectic around here! :)
It's been three months since my surgery and I feel great! Swimsuit shopping & clothing shopping is much more fun. I had my surgery done through the University of Utah Residency plastic surgery department. It's a world class teaching hospital and as you can see from my results, they do a fabulous job. Dr. C finished his residency last month. I think I was one of his last patients. Good luck to you!

Mamaof3 10 Jul 2011
Thanks for the compliment! I had my surgery done through the University of Utah Division of Plastic Surgery Residency Program. If you Google their website, there will be a link to submit a request for more information. Good luck to you!

How do I find your Doctor??? Are you still happy with the results? I would most definetly make the trip for that price! I have a friend who came from the Bay Area to Salt Lake City to have her brests done about 10 years ago for the price. Please let me know!
Mamaof3 10 Jul 2011
It's been three months since my surgery and I am absolutely ecstatic! Everything looks and feels great. I had my surgery done through the University of Utah Division of Plastic Surgery Residency Program. Dr. C finished his residency last month and went on to do a fellowship in southern CA. I was one of his last patients. If you Google the University, there will be a link where may contact the residency program for more information. They're all really nice. Good luck to you!
pttycakes 8 Jul 2011

Mamaof3 10 Jul 2011
Please contact the university of Utah division of plastic surgery residency department. Dr. C finished his residency last month but I believe Dr. Marengo might still be there. If you Google the University's plastic surgery department, there will be a link to request more information. Good luck to you!
