Answer: Total body contouring You have a very ambitious plan-but it is achievable. I would do the breasts and the abdomen first as these willheal more quickly than the buttocks area. After some strategic measurements-you may be advised to have a breast lift with or without implants. Tightening and lifting your breasts may condense your volume such thatimplants may not be necessary-during your physical exam-the new condensed volume and position can be simulated. Abdominoplasty with flank liposuction will flatten your abdomen and improve the waist. Because of your large weight loss your are a candidate for a buttock lift and augmentation using a specialized buttock flapthe superior gluteal artery flap.

Answer: What procedure would you recommend for my body? Hi. You are thinking correctly in that the BBL should be done first followed by the other procedures. I appears however, that you had a previous liposuction. I may be wrong. If you did, then that will limit the amount fat available for transfer. You will need a significant amount of fat in order to get your behind to project. I would venture to guess a minimum of 1200 cc per side. Always seek out the opinion of a surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery with years of experience in mommy makovers. Furthermore request to see before and after photos of previous patients by that doctor....not a clinic or surgery center. Do your homework......research and verify the doctor's credentials. Have they had problems with the Board of Medicine, disciplinary or otherwise. Any law suits? How about the center, clinic or facility? Are they accredited by a national organization or do they just have State approval. Understand that at the current time, there are three nationally recognized organizations responsible for the highest levels of patient safety, AAAASF, AAACH and JCHO. You owe it to yourself to position yourself for the best possible results but under the most stringent safety regulations, If you have kids, even more so.How about anesthesia? Will you have a medical doctor certified by the American Board of Anesthesiology or a certified nurse anesthetist (CRNA)? Understand that there is no substitute for research. Cosmetic surgery, no matter how simple it may be to the patients, are invasive procedures and as such carry certain risks and complications.In our office we use TouchMD which is a web based program in which patients have the ability to load their picture unto the program. I then evaluate them and can actually draw on the picture to show a potential patient where the incisions would be located and how the procedure is to be realized. It's all done to comply with HIPPA which is the federal law that protects the patient's medical information. Look them up.Give yourself the highest percentage of a successful operation. The costs involved for a mommy makeover to include a tummy tuck and breast lift with implants will vary according to the area of the country. Here in Miami the prices will vary greatly on whether you choose a shopping center clinic or a surgeon in private practice. At our institute it depends on the individual's particular needs . I would encourage you to really do your research before making the decision. Good luck
