I have wanted a breast augmentation for years, but even more so after my last child was born last year. I went my consultation and was informed I would need a lift and I decided to get some lipo on my flanks, thighs, and abdomen. I'm anxious to get this stubborn fat removed. My doctor has made me comfortable but I am terrified I'm going to wake up and my boobs are going to be lopsided and pointing opposite directions.

Thanks for sharing your story. Will you be getting a tummy tuck also?

No ma'am. I don't have any loose skin and I don't have a lot of padding there. My breast is what took the big hit from pregnancy, breastfeeding, and weight loss. I had my pre op appointment today and everything is good to go! I'm not on any medications and live a very healthy lifestyle, so the only thing left to do in TN e next 2 weeks is get my thick panty hose for my hips and thighs. I don't pick a size of implant until the day of surgery, which I thought was odd, but sometimes impulse decisions are the best. I'm so excited!

I know you're struggling choosing a size and by looking at your wish boobs and your stats you probably want to go with at least 550. I personally wish I went with 550. Good luck. Also... Was lipo painful? Have you seen a big difference? Was it costly?

I want the nice big and full boobs, but I also don't want them to get in my way at the gym. I suppose with a good sports bra it wouldn't bother me?? Yours turned out really nice! I think I got a really good deal. If I would just get the lift and augmentation, it would have been 8140. Lift, aug, and lipo of the hips and thighs came to 10200, but at last minute I added the abdomen too so the grand total is 11000. Those prices include anesthesia, surgical room, and compression garments. If I would do the lipo separate it would be about 3300. If I didn't have to get a lift it would probably be 3000 less.

What kind of support hose after lipo?

ChachasJune 6, 2015
12 more days to go and I need to get some slimming/shaping panty hose to wear after my procedure since I am also having lipo on my hips and thighs. My RN gave me a size guide and suggested I go to jc Penney or Macy's, but I don't know anything anything about panty hose. What is a good brand?
Suggestions please!

I have a countdown on my phone and u have less than 9 days and 4 hours to go. The closer I get to this the more nervous I become. I have a tendency to overreact, but I'm highly anxious right now. I'm excited to have breast again and I'm sure my husband will be to see "the girls". All I want to is look at myself in a mirror naked and not be grossed out by what is looking back at me.
