I am 33 yrs old. 5'9" and 155 lbs. I am a mom, I work part time and attend school part time. I have 3 children the oldest is a teenager and the youngest is 2yrs old. because I had my first child so young (in my late teens) I never had a chance to enjoy my pre-baby body. During each pregnancy i gained a significant amount of weight (50 lbs, 60 lbs, and 40 lbs). I also breast fed all three kids... So despite always eventually returning to my pre-pregnancy weight I was left with a somewhat stretched belly and volume loss from my breasts. I am also "thicker" around my midsection.

I have wanted to have a breast lift with small implants (to restore volume) for the last 10 yrs, and a tummy tuck for the last 7 yrs.... Now that I am definitely finished having children I am so ready to get my body back!

Since I have started researching the mommy makeovers the BBL also caught my eye... since i have had "no-ass-at-all disease" my whole life and i now have "bra rolls" on my back (YUCK!) I would really like to have the BBL done too.

I am still looking for a surgeon... I have consulted with Dr. Hughes in California, and would absolutely love to have him do the surgery! His results are amazing and he has said that he can do the TT/BL/BA/BBL at the same time. The cost of the surgery is the part that is holding up the process :-(

So I think I am going to arrange a consultation with 2 local plastic surgeons and see what they say.

Did the consultations with the local surgeons correspond with what Dr Hughes suggested or were there differences?

I didn't consult anyone locally.... There weren't any physicians locally that perform enough BBL's for me to feel comfortable using them.

I've read all your journey and it brings me so much hope ! I know I need this because I'm unhappy with my saggy breast and wrinkle tummy. Did u get your surgery finance ? And if so did u have to put some money down ?

Thank you, thank you, thank you for all of your pics. You have given me more confidence to get a TT/BL. I had lipo/bbl a month ago with Dr. Hughes and it came out great. You look amazing and are healing beautifully. Continue to heal and I will be following you.

Just wanted to update and say how impressed i am with Dr. Hughes. After initially requesting a consult through real self I received an email from Dr. Hughes with in a couple hours, I responded a few hours later while on my lunch break at 11pm central time (i work night shift) sending my current photos and "wish" photos. To my surprise 3 hrs later I already had a response from Dr. Hughes (it must have been midnight in CA)!! The price he quoted me was a good bit more than what the other ladies on here have listed as their cost. He quoted me $22k for a BL/BA/TT/BBL... I have seen other ladies that have had surgery by him with the total cost listed around $18K. So the cost is what is holding me up. I did not respond to the second email from Dr. Hughes because my husband and i had been discussing the cost. But to my surprise this past monday (about 3 days after the last email) I received a phone call from Dr. Hughes. I surprised that he called me himself... he answered all my questions regarding the surgeries, recovery and financial options. He was very personable, knowledgeable and had great "bedside manner" over the phone! After speaking with him there is not doubt in my mind that he is the one I want to do my surgery!!! I am so excited... now if I can only work out the financial details ;-)
