Hip Implant Surgery with Dr. Stanton- Excited! Surgery Date Pending...

$11,900
So let me just say, genetics do not work in my favor when it comes to hip proportion. So I have researched and come to the conclusion that I am going to get a hip augmentation with custom implants. I have had two BBLs in the past. Both times the fat just melted away after about two years. While I have a decent butt projection, I am hipless and the outer area of my buttock needs help.
After researching and having consultation with multiple plastic surgeons, I have decided to move forward with Dr. Stanton. I would first off like to say, after having multiple consultations, Dr. Stanton's office staff and him himself have been the most professional and organized. Though I have not officially met them in person, I can tell by the way the staff and MD communicate, they provide quality care. Hats off to Dr Stanton and the office manager, they have a good team. A little background, I am an RN and currently work in Quality Assurance. I worked as a clinic nurse for the first 10 years of my career. I know quality when I see it and feel comfortable moving forward with him and his team. I am putting the deposit down today- which is $3,000 so the implants can be pre-ordered. It will take approximately three weeks for the hips to be custom made and delivered to the clinic. I am a little nervous because I am flying from Colorado for this surgery and per his staff, he orders the custom implants based off the pictures I provided-- I am a little nervous about that part and will elaborate more on that process after the surgery. Anyone with feedback on that process, please comment. I will post before and after photos after the surgery. Wish me luck!!!

Today is my surgery day! I go back and forth between nervous but excited. I look forward to the results but don't look forward to the recovery process. I will let you all know what the pain is like.. (mind you... I have a high tolerance for pain).
I go in for my preop at 7a (day of surgery). He gave me three scripts to start last night... Celebrex, Cipro and Flagyl.

Alright, I had my procedure this morning. So far so good. I am quite sore but the pain is not unbearable.
As expected, I am swollen and have drains to manage. I am excited to see the final results. Pics coming soon.
