Body Better at 41 Than 20

I had an extended abdominoplasty, liposuction of the flanks, and a breast reduction & mastopexy. I am only 9 days out from my surgery and I am absolutely shocked - in a good way - at my results. I'm 41 and have had 4 c-sections and developed that fun shelf of skin and fat over my c-section scar that would never go away and not really even shrink as weight fluctuated, plus lax muscles and an extended pregnant-looking belly that never got better despite years of pilates. I have always had large breasts that had good volume but sagged and got in the way of physical activity.

My entire torso looks better than it ever has, like, better than it did in college. I am healing great and have had no complications from the surgery. I am really pleased with the shape and how proportional he made everything.

I like Dr. Marion's entire staff, very professional and warm, and I am someone who was somewhat uncomfortable about this whole thing but they made me feel great. He is a superb surgeon absolutely expert at what he does, and frankly I think the price given the number of hours the surgery took was quite reasonable. I have zero regrets - only that I wish I had done this sooner.
