Still so happy

WORTH IT$4,000
August 2012 I had a Breast Augmentation. I have absolutely no regrets. My confidence has gone up. Now my next journey begins. I am having a full tummy tuck with the muscle repair and liposuction. I was going to have the tummy tuck done at the same time as the augmentation but i completely chickened out. But not no more I can't wait to be rid of all this yucky stuff. My surgery is February 9th at Strax the same place as the augmentation I do have a different doctor though even though my Last surgeon was excellent. My surgeon is Dr. Pane i had my consult with him on Jan 31. My sister is coming from Canada in March for a breast lift and implants as well as a tummy tuck. She has lost a ton of weight and looks incredible she is also going to have the same surgeon. Its a family afair.

I did online research and looked at comments by patients from several different sites. Not just the Dr's site. I met with the Doctor at my consultation and he made me feel very comfortable and answered all my questions and also gave me good advice. I have had a whole lot of after care appointments canceled by the surgery center and now over 8 weeks post op I have yet to see my PS. I don't dis like the PS I think he was absolutely great but the ball has defiantly been drooped on my after care. But as for his work and his knowledge he was wonderful.

How fun! I love that you and your sister are kind of doing it together. That's so cute! Congrats on your weight loss! You are phenomenal! That takes a lot of hard work and dedication, you totally deserve this! I'm glad you healed well with you BA. I hope you heal quickly with this as well. Good luck!
Thank you very much
Thank you very much
I had my TT first and am saving for my lift and augmentation. If I were u I wouldn't think of going bigger. Once you get the tt you should gave a nice hourglass shape. Sometimes when you're top heavy you just look overweight. You have come too far for that
Ya i am not going any bigger.
Any PO pics of the new tummy??? I'm going to do BA next, just gotta recover from the TT first!! I cant wait, your breasts look really great! Congrats!

over a year post op

I can't believe how long it has been. I still do not regret getting my Boobies but I do regret not getting silicone. I can feel the implant when I lay down and it deforms when I lay down. I can't afford a revision right now but when I can I definitely will and I will go a little bigger as well because once they settle it seems like the implant is not as full. Which gets me thinking I wonder what size implant was used be cause I wonder if he used a smaller implant and over filled it which would help with the wrinkling. But even with that I can't imagine not having them

Almost a year post op

I can't believe it has been almost a year. I love my boobies but do regret the saline. I do have ripples in certain positions. I have lost some more weight so I can also feel the implant when I;m laying down. I am a full 34DDD I don't think I look that big but that's the size I wear.
