1 Year TT brief update..... July 22 made it a year since my TT surgery by Dr. Melinda Haws. During my follow up visits she was just as attentive as she was during my first consultation. Any issues I had ( which was a very small one) was addressed. I have gotten several comment from other RS member saying that I look so Happy with my results..... Yes I am .... Dr. Haws and the Surgery Center was the right choice for me .. : ) *********************************************************************************** Breast Lift March 26, 2015.... Happy YES ! YES ! YES ! Had my breast lift done by Dr. Melinda Haws under local anesthesia..... I was unsure at first but she explain how things would be done in detail so I decide to go the local route (came close to changing my mind) but I rode the tides. I must say things were on point Dr. Haws and her surgery crew was wonderful through out the whole process. I had no discomfort and after care was a breeze ..... A BIG THANK YOU to Dr. Haws and the Staff at Nashville Surgery Center : ) ********************************************************************************** I am 4 months and 1 week Post- OP Only thing I can say is !!! I have a DAM Good PS !!! Please understand my picture have not been altered in anyway this is the true work of Dr. Melinda Haws of Nashville, Tn..... Ladies I can't promise you will get the same results...Everybody is different but I am one Happy Lady !!!! A BIG THANK YOU TO Dr. Haws and The Staff of The Plastic Surgery Center Nashville, Tn..... And a very Special Thank you to my Hair Stylist (you know who you are) for the recommedation . ******************************************************************* Dr. Haws and her staff are WONDERFUL !!! I've had a consultation and set the date, my Pre-Opt appointment is 07/08/2014 On my consultation day I was wondering how am I going to show these rolls to this Doctor but she made me feel at ease. She was very attentive, listen to what I want and in return gave me suggestion as to what she could do and still give me the result that I hope to achieve. My date 07/22/2014 I'm hoping to give a after review. *********************************************************************************** 08/22/2014 - I am officially 1 month post-op today -Update Let me start by saying pictures speaks a thousand words and if you have view my photos you will see what I mean. When I had my consultation and my pre-op appointment I did not have a wish picture, my wish was different and that was for Dr. Haws and I to create a new me and to wear some clothing without the (rolls). During my pre-op session and after the photo session she did her magic on the photos showing me "The New Me" and she was so on point with my every thought as to what I wanted. She is a true person of her words before I was rolled into the surgery room I told her to "Make it Right and Tight" and that she did. The magic she put on my pre-op picture and my body be the canvas was a work of art. What more can I say ?...... Dr. Haws and her staff is the Bomb !!!!!

Hi, just look at you now!! The thigh lift looks amazing, and your overall profile is just stunning. I hope your family is proud of you too. Keep fit and looking good, the transition over the past 4yrs has been inspiring. I am also at 4yrs in mid September and would love a thighlift, but at well over 70yrs now, I don't think it will happen . All the best for your future.
imath - Thank you so much.
.
I just went through all your posts and pics. You are living my dream. It looks like you have done a lot of fitness work after the surgeries as well. You look so happy!!! The only thing stopping me is money. Not that I have it but even if I did I would feel guilty spending like this. But again you look so happy. Maybe I have to realize that is worth it.
I felt the same way, I had to tell myself you have supported and been there for everybody else including taking care of my kids which I continue to do and I think I deserve it. At some point in your life you have to do something for yourself. I’m not going to lie the closer time gets to my big day I feel guilty too, but deep down inside I only get to live once and I feel like I deserve to be happy. I hope you feel the same one day. I wish you the best!
Yes I am Happy and Thank you so much for the compliment.
Thank you I could not have said it better.
Happy Healing.
I have to say, you look beautiful! All of your hard work has definitely paid off. I am considering a upper blep and have been stalking several Middle TN providers. When I stumbled upon your story I had to comment. Even though a blep is the eyes and obviously your work was the torso and thighs would you recommend the staff? I’m super nervous about finding the right provider, and just don’t want to come out on the other side of this looking like an overdone Jocelyn Wildenstein.
Sorry for the delay.
I would recommend Dr.Haws on a heartbeat. I was very nervous when I went for my consultation.
Within a few minutes we were laughing and talking. She made me feel at ease and listened to what I wanted and then she told me what she could do. I did not take a photo of a model I told her I
wanted my body back (although I have a picture of a dress). When I made the decision to go ahead on my next visit she took out her drawing pad (I did not say one word) she knew exactly what I wanted and needed done. My after care was wonderful. She did my breast lift under local anesthesia
No implants....I recoverd really fast. For me she was the right choice.

On the Bucket List ......... My Thing to do Before I turn 60 .......... Another Journey

Real Self friends I'm taking another journey and yes it will be with Dr. Melinda Haws.
I've had my consultation my date is set for February 2nd for a Bilateral Thigh Lift Thighplasty
this will consists of removing, tightening, and lifting of excess skin in my medial (upper inner) thighs.......I will also be getting fat transfer to my buttocks.........

In my PreOp visit she explain how she would performed the procedure so that my scars would be under my buttock (I am very please with that). We discussed the results of the fat transfer to fill in what I call the swiss cheese on my butt .... I will have to be very careful after surgery she recommend that I don't sit for long period and stand as much a possible will have to sleep on my side for a while. So with said I'm ready to do this !!!!!!

3 Years TT ..... July 22 2014

Hello Ladies!!! Happy Healing to all.
I try to come back every year to give an update on how I am doing.
Three years ago Dr. Melinda Hawes of the Nashville Surgery Center perform her magic and gave me back to me. I can still say... I'm glad I made that call...I am 58 years young and 2 years shy of being 60... Have gone through some very high and lows in my personal life, almost had to give up my workout program (left knee start to give me problem) but starting to pick it back up... found a good workout shoe. I continue to watch what I eat and with pizza being my weakness once a month I have pizza day. So with all of that said I think I have done well so please enjoy the picture.... until next year Ladies take care
Dr. Haws you will always Rock in my Book......
