Once I decided to do this, I looked around and my first consultation was with Dr. Nalluri. His office at first glance, does not seem like what I would think. It was kind of dark and a bit creepy. He and his staff are very nice though, but the consultation seemed rather cold and awkward. His price was also a bit higher than I have seen from other people who have recently had mommy makeovers. I think just for belly lipo and breast augmentation, (with a mid life... so no scar on the bottom, just lifting the nipple a little) was going to cost more than $12,000. He also made me feel like he didnt want to do anything.
I felt very uneasy about the whole experience and no longer as excited.
I decided to research a few more doctors when I came across this site.Some one else had mentioned Dr. Lacerna. I made an appt and right from the start the staff was nice on the phone. When I went into her office it seemed welcoming, even her decor made you feel comfortable. She is super laid back and didn't make me feel awkward at all, but rather like I was just chatting with one of the girls. She even told me about her own plastic surgery. I was also introduced to a staff member who had had lipo the week prior and she was perfectly fine. No bruising, barely any swelling and this is because Dr. Lacerna is the only plastic surgeon in Sarasota that offers Slim Laser Lipo. The total which includes my entire torso: lower abs, upper abs, back and love handles, the back of my thighs, breast aug and the no scar lift all came out to $8400.
I am calling today to set up my surgery date which I would like it to be around June 5th. I will have before photos up by then.

I'm very excited for you! Are you getting a tummy tuck as well, or lipo and breast work only?

Sounds like you found a great PS to help you get the results you want. What type of implants are you using? Which incision? Your date is really close so I'm sure you are excited. Keep posting.

At first I was thinking of getting silicone because I read that they felt more natural. My doctor explained that this is for women who have small breast and are requiring just size. They need the "natural" feel because they do not have enough of their own breast tissue. In my case, I'm already a C, I want perkiness and fuller breast. PS says that I have enough of my own tissue to cover the entire saline implant and the saline will provide the extra "perkiness" that I am looking for. The incision will be through the nipple for minimal scarring. I'm super excited!!

Before Photos Added!!
So my surgery date is set for June 4rth at 8am. I am so very nervous!
I went for my pre op visit last week and had my Before photos taken, got my prescriptions and paid 1/2. My doc is also throwing in slim lipo on my arms for free. woohoo!
I've been reading a lot on here and its been helping me out so much. Some one did email me and tell me that what I am having isn't considered a "Mommy Makeover" and they were moving me to a different section. That kind of bothered me since right here on the website the definition of Mommy Makeover is when a woman is having more than one procedure due to having children. I'm having BA,BL and Slim Lipo.... thats 3 procedures... and I'm a mommy....lol
Anyways, I'd love to hear back from other mommies out there that have any advice for me. I am so nervous. My doc says that I should be walking around that same day. My hubby is worried cause on my 3rd day of recovery he will be gone for 2 days on business. Do you guys think this might be an issue?
