Looking for Advice About Smaller Big Boobs - Salt Lake City, UT

Breast Lift-no Implants-6 weeks post op new pic

I felt the same way about spending the money....thoughts lke, this could be a down payment on a nice car, a good chunk for my son's college fund, a fun vacation....now a year later when I look at myself in the mirror I think wow this was definitely worth it! I will say that I had confidence before the surgery. The mental part of it takes more time to heal than the physical. It sounds stupid, but start giving yourself compliments in front of the mirror everyday. That's what I did before the weight loss, and slowly started to believe it. Dr.Dunkley is amazing, as well as his staff. I had 3 different consults as well, and Dr. Dunkley was the best decision hands down. Be open about any questions you might have, he'll be honest with you about the results. Good luck! feel free to pm me if you have any questions or need any help with anything since you're close!

I hired an aide for the first 48 hours since I dont really know anyone out here. Just to get my son from the bus stop, cook meals, and help me re-position. You'll def need help from sitting to standing, and standing to sitting. Going to the bathroom is a bitch because you have to stand up, get to the bathroom, sit on the toilet, then stand up when you're done, then sit or lay back down. My PS said I was the toughest patient he had seen, I was feeling great after a week, most aren't able to stand up staright for 2 weeks. I was stubborn and trying to cook meals the first night home. When you first get it done the meds will kind of make you feel like superwoman with arthritis, but dont push yourself! You'll be kicking yourself in the ass the next day if you do. Same goes when you get back to the gym. Take it slow or you'll end up paying!

Thanks, and congrats on your decision! My son also has autism, it's certainly not a show stopper. I look autism as having an easier way to communicate with my child with all the research out there! He may be lacking on social skills, but is extremely smart and outgoing! Don't look at autism as a bad thing. Most schools and daycares count a special needs child as two kids for the purpose of student-teacher ratio, so it means he'll be in smaller classes! Money is hard with something like this, but definitely a life altering decision-for the better. My looks finally fit my vain personailty! lol Good luck, let me know if you need any advice-I need to post more pics since it's almost been a year!

Thanks, but I would suggest running-the only reason I had lipo on my thighs was because I needed them to take it from somewhere to put in my butt, and getting a big butt isn't something that running or squats will help with. It's amazing what we can do with our bodies if we push ourselves...and it's FREE!

Down to about 8 inches from my crotch. Mostly because I dont have much fat below that-I have really muscular thighs, so he took what he could
