Liposuction, Neck Lift, Buccal Fat, Facial Fat Injections & Benelli Lift - Beverly Hills, CA

Okay, so I very new to this site but am so keen on tracking my progress and getting the support I need while I take the plunge. I've been researching good plastic surgeons here in Aus for a lot of years, however I just wasnt totally satisfied with what I was able to find. So I heard about a doctor through a work colleague whose family lives in LA. He told me about how fantastic he was, so I decided to do some research online. Obviously I was thinking that there would be absolutely no way that I could afford to do something so extravagant as to fly to the US just to get surgery.

I did however send him some photos and request a quote, besides, theirs no harm in dreaming right? Not long after I was offered a new job which involved a relocation for our whole family (we also have 4 children) and pretty good pay rise and also........... They offered to pay for all our accommodation expenses in a waterfront penthouse. So, with no bills to pay, my husband suggested we go for it, and go the whole hog. So, he booked the flights, booked Disneyland tickets of course, booked my surgery and all accommodation. To say I have feelings of guilt is an under statement, I still can't wrap my head around the amount of money being spent for me.

So, a little about the surgery : I am planning on having my legs liposuctioned and contoured (I've never been lucky enough to have legs that I could show off - mine are tree stumps), liposuction to arms, a neck lift, buccal fat removed (I first want to discuss this in my pre op before I go through with this), facial fat grafting under my eyes, and finally a breast Benelli lift.

So, now here I am, only 18 days away from leaving for the states with an experience of a life time ahead of me, and my family too.

Wish me luck, and I will keep you posted!

Have my blood tests tomorrow, know it actually feels like it's not that far away - although it does feel like it's been a lifetime of waiting.
FYI - don't get your blood tests even 1 day earlier than the required 14 days. Thought I would get them out the way early last week.... Bumm bumm... Now have to do it all over again :(

So, had my blood tests Thursday and am due to pick up th results tomorrow, so hopefully all goes well. Last tests showed some abnormalities in my results so certainly have my fingers crossed as I'm worried that surgery may be cancelled.

Also, last day of work tomorrow!!!! Woohoo! Then we fly out on Wednesday. To say that I am getting nervous, excited, stressed, worried is an understatement! Eeek!
