So, after giving birth to 3 kids I am in much need of a mommy makeover. I gained 50+ pounds during all three of my pregnancies and breastfed the last two. The end results are flat boobs, a diastasis recti, an umbilical hernia and a tummy that always looks three months pregnant!
I went on three consults about two years ago and all suggested a tummy tuck with lipo (didn't consider a BA because I hadn't lost all the baby weight and my boobs were ok) but, the plastic surgeons recommended I get to my ideal weight before surgery. So, I've been working my butt off in the gym since then. It's paid off!!! I'm down 40lbs and no longer need lipo but, I was disappointed that my boobs were gone (barely 32A) and my stomach wouldn't get flat no matter how much I worked those abs. The weight loss also made the umbilical hernia appear bigger; like a 2yr old toddler with an outie!
So tired of not being able to wear what I want because of my stomach so, I decided to do something. After going through thousands of before and after pics I found a PS in Houston, TX whose TT's look natural. Not that "pulled tight sheet of skin look!" I scheduled a consult with Dr. Christopher Patronella. He was very knowledgeable; telling me all of my issues before I even had a chance to tell him! I told him I wanted fuller natural looking breast and he recommended silicone under the muscle implants. I left needing time to process everything. A few weeks later Eva; his patient coordinator emailed asking if I needed any questions answered or would like to schedule a second consult which was perfect! I'd come up with so many questions and concerns.
Dr. Patronella answered all of my questions and addressed my concerns. After trying on sizers again I made a deposit and scheduled my surgery for November 17, 2016! How is it possible to be so excited and nervous at the same time???
Will post pics in a bit...
