I am 59 years old and felt I was probably too old to have a breast lift that I had been considering for many years. With the encouragement of my daughter I found Aesthetic Surgical Images in Omaha. From the moment my husband and I met Dr. Bruneteau, we knew we had chosen the right clinic and dr. Dr. Bruneteau assured me that I wasn't too old and made me feel very comfortable with what I had chosen to have done. I had a Mommy Makeover, which included breast lift, tummy tuck and liposuction of the hips and buttocks. I'll be very honest---there were rough moments. The first week was pretty difficult. I really did need my husband's help for almost everything. We live 4 hours from Omaha, so we had alot of travel back and forth. I have difficulty with pain medication, so I only took those for about 3 days. The liposuction was the most painful in the beginning, however that heals fairly quickly. Probably the hardest part for me was sleeping on my back, since I am a stomach sleeper! The drains from the tummy tuck a nuisance, but were gone by the end of the 2nd week and I felt so much better when they were both removed! That's the negative---now the POSITIVE! My surgery was 5 weeks ago and I can't believe the results! The breast lift was easy! Very little pain there and I am so pleased with the results! I still have a few scabs that are still healing. My tummy is so flat and my shape has definitely improved! I'm still in the beginning stages of healing, but I am so glad I had the surgery. It was definitely worth it!!!

Loved hearing your positive/negative feelings about the entire process! I am 9 weeks post op and feel great, but I did go through a setback early on. Am now 80% back to Zumba, starting to get back to the gym and doing my 2nd 5K since surgery..although not completely running..walking fast/jogging but we all have to start somewhere! Happy healing!
