NO BBL (that's coming in 2015)... TT/LIPO/BREAST REDUCTION W/WONDERBRA LIFT

I've been considering having a combined procedure for well over a decade. After much research I have now finally made up my mind. The only dilemma I'm faced with is the question of the procedures I will combine vs. Which procedure must wait. I'm in desperate need of a FULL tummy tuck w/liposuction, BBL and Fat transfer to the outer upper thigh (hips).

Considering the fact that with the healing process of the BBL I know I MUST not lie on my buttocks, with the Tummy Tuck, I can't lie on my stomach, so the only option is laying on the sides, which is impossible if I get the transfer to my hips. I just feel that my BBL would be complete with the hips, since this would give me an hourglass look. But I'm prepared to return at a later date to have the latter preformed.

I know Dr. J curves is very busy, but damn.....Next year until I can even get a consult? Needless to say I'm very disappointed as I had anticipated having my procedure preformed at least by the end of this year. Well... Looking on the bright side of things I will have a bit longer to continue working out.

I'm 5'10" and weigh 287lbs (Yessss. I'm down 10 lbs). I'm not scheduled for my patient consultation until June 12, 2014. However, I spoke with Michelle today and she explained this entire process of "How to get your surgery date bumped up". Now, that it has been clarified, I will share the info with you ladies. First of all there are 2 lists: 1)Consultation 2)Surgery A $500 non-refundable deposit guarantees a Surgery date NO LATER than 6 weeks after your scheduled consultation date. A $2000 non-refundable deposit gets you on the Surgery LIST! (I know you say $2,000 WTF??? However, she explained that she does 15-20 consults on average/day and out of that 15-20 only 5-7 patients are retained. So, that's a lot of wasted time. The large deposit displays the seriousness of the person to have the procedure/s done. So upon paying this deposit, handled via debit card, or directly depositing the funds into the Advanced Solutions Plastic Surgery account(Patient Coordinator will provide you with bank routing and account number upon request). Then your name is automatically placed on the Sx list! When a Sx cancellation comes up, they go down a list in order of who paid first and call them to offer the date. If you are unable to accept the date, then your name remains on the list. She even told me that after you mail in the $2000 dep. you can begin sending in payments until your surgery is P.I.F. My consult date is 15 months out. Ideally I would like my procedure done by the earliest, October and NO LATER than February 2014. I still need time to achieve my goal weight which is between 220-230. I believe I can have that amount over the next 7 months. I will only get about 1/3 of the procedure financed. So, in essence the first people who are taken off of the Sx list are those who have paid in full. COMBINING PROCEDURES Initially I was seriously contemplating combining the BBL & TT, but after I thought about it I decided to wait for the TT and here is the reason why: In the state of GA, only 5000 cc's (approx.11 lbs of fat, tumescent fluid,blood and other body fluids)can be safely removed during a single session. Keeping that in mind, my problematic area is my lower back. Therefore, I'm going to express that I want him to pay close attention to this area foremost. I mean AGGRESSIVELY lipo this area (As I want a pronounced arch or sway in my back) 2nd would be my flanks (I really don't have much of an under bra roll . A waist cincher smooths that area out just fine). My worry is if I have him focus too much on lipo' ing my tummy then he reaches the the 5000cc limit, then the area I desire to have removed the most is going to be sacrificed. That's why others seeing Dr. J mention not to pay for these additional areas, because he might be unable to remove enough fat in that area(due to state law) for you to see a noticeable difference, but nevertheless you will have to pay just the same, because yet and still he suctioned that area to a certain degree. Does that make sense? When I get my TT, I want him to be able to suck out the MAXIMUM in THAT AREA ALONE to give me a tummy so flat that I make the walls jealous! I love Dr. JCurves work! He's a little pricey, but I believe that nothing safe & good goes for kibbles-n-bits. He also carries insurance on every patient for the first 30 days. That's a plus! I'm interested in getting my blood drawn and stored. Just in case I need a transfusion. OAN Michelle stated that in light of the procedure being completely paid, if you pass the medical clearance, he won't operate on you!
