Should I wait to get my breasts done until after I reach my goal weight? Will losing 30 lbs mess up a breast lift?

Asked By:aclay166 in Washington, District of Columbia

I have lost a substantial amount of weight. I have 30 or 40 lbs until I reach my goal weight. I plan on getting a breast lift first, then lipo, tummy tuck, and bbl. I want to get the latter when I'm abt 10 to 15 lbs away from my goal weight, so I can have enough fat. But I need time btwn surgeries. If I get a breast lift then lose 30 to 40 lbs will I mess up the lift? Will my breasts look saggy again? Should I get my breasts done 1st or after the other procedures?
