33 with 3 Kids Much Needed BL & TT - San Antonio, TX

So this was a day after surgery. Such a huge difference. Couldn't be happier

This is long overdue, but better late than never. I'm 33 with 3 kids my youngest is 7. I've been wanting to get as close as I can to my pre baby body as possible. I had 4 consultations set up, however; it only took me two to find my doctor.I initially wanted implants wanted to see if a lift was needed (I didn't really want scars if at all possible). The first doctor I went to I didn't get to really talk to. I arrived at the office, was taken back by one s nurse and was told to try on sizers and watch a video on lifts and implants. I had a lot of questions I wanted to ask the doctor. The doctor came in maybe 5-10 min after I finished the video looked at me in the sizers with my shirt on and said ok we'll put this size in. I lifted my shirt to show him my stomach, still had on jeans and a belt and he was like you need a tummy tuck. I asked would I be able to get flat with just lipo, he was like ok well do lipo quote her. And left. He never examined me or anything. Needless to say I was a little put off. It was like he didn't really want to take the time to speak with me. Answer questions or anything. So FF 2 days later I'm back in the same office to meet with Dr. Lawton. I was honestly just wanting to get it over. I figured they are in the same office surely they are the same. Couldn't be more wrong. It was like night and day. So I was taken back by a nurse again but I was taken to an office instead of an examination room. About 2 min later Dr. Lawton came in and introduced himself. I explained to him what I wanted. And he explained why it may or may not work. He showed me what kind of results I would get if I needed a lift and didn't get one and just got implants which by the way is not cute. He explained why a tummy tuck would be a better option than lipo. I got to ask all the questions I wanted and never felt like I was taking to much of his time and didn't feel rushed. I appreciate the fact that he educated me on my decisions. After I was satisfied with our conversation I was taken to an examination room where he measured my breast determined yes i did need a lift on both and definitely a tummy tuck. He told me if I got lipo because of the excess skin I would not be happy with the outcome. He also told me he would not do a lift and implants at the same time. That was a bit discouraging until he explained how it would increase the risk of complications. I don't have the best of luck so I always tend to err on the side of caution. I trusted his judgment and decided to get a full TT and BL.
