WORTH IT
I am a 37 year old mother of 2 kids in need of a mommy makeover. For several years I had thought about having a tummy tuck and breast lift so I could wear cute clothes and 2 pc bathing suits without feeling so self conscious especially about my mid section. I breastfed both of my kids that left my breasts saggy. I finally went for a consultation and decided it's time to do this for me! I've always put everyone else's needs ahead of my own and it is time to do it while I still feel young! I wear 34DD bra and happy with overall size so having breast lift for now with possibility of small implant later if fullness is not achieved, my doctor recommended the 2 stage procedure anyway due to being larger breasted and am happy with my overall size. Just don't like the sag! We have a vacation already scheduled so I decided to wait until after that to have my surgery. October 26th is the day!

Thank you! I have been reading a bunch of comments/reviews on here and is helping me feel like I will be prepared. My surgery is still a little ways away so any suggestions or things anyone feels they absolutely needed or couldn't have done without is a big help! I'm excited and nervous!

Thank you. The nausea is subsiding and I am able to move around a little bit better today. Still have a massive headache, trying to make sure I stay hydrated.

Hey I live in the same area. Which plastic surgeon did you use? I have an appointment next Thursday for a consultation. I had implants 12 years ago and I have a leaking implant now.

I went for a 2nd consult yesterday because I had been on google way to much and got all nervous!! The worst thing I could have done before surgery!! I wanted to make sure my PS and I were in the same page of what outcome I wanted. I left the office feeling very confident in my upcoming procedure. I definitely want upper fullness after seeing many, many, many photos of breast lifts only and my PS said we could go ahead with a small implant with this surgery and I added lipo to my underarm areas because of the enlarged areas that will be very visible following breast lift. A Little over a month away from my surgery date!

As you can tell in the picture my R breast is bigger than the L. A Reduction will be done on the R.

Wow! Surgery day is almost here and I have been getting everything I think I will need together! I added a few more 'before' photos and can't wait to see the 'after' results!
