PS Lower Body Lift
Is anyone else thinking of having this done? I have really been giving it some thought over the last 2 weeks. I know I will get the TT and my insurance may even cover it but I really want the whole LBL...I know I'm being greedy but what the heck haven't we worked hard for this? I would also like a Breast Lift and maybe an arm lift...not sure about that one though. Is there such a thing as a whole body lift

Hey Anna! You may have to talk to Belle from the January board, she is getting a LBL I believe that's what it's called. I don't think I need that, but I do NEED a TT and breast lift badly. I don't think you're being greedy at all. If I could, I would do it now. You've worked so hard, go for it girl!!
As Janie said, I am have a 360 body lift in March. My surgeon will not be tightening any of the rectus muscles (I think that is right) so he said the recovery is actually not too bad, although there are 4 drains that will stay in for 7-10 days. I will have an incision that goes across my lower stomach that wraps around right above my bottom "cleavage" (to put it nicely!) He will be removing a belt of skin and fat that is between 12 and 18 inches wide. It will obviously flatten my stomach and rib area, but will also get rid of the love handles, back rolls, and lift my bottom. I had an arm lift and breast lift with augmentation last week. Everything looks AWESOME. I am stunned by the results. I am very happy with the choices I have made. I know many people choose not to go downt he PS road, but for me, I know it is the right path.
I would be happy to send you pictures of my before/after of my arms and breasts if you would like. I will probably be taking some in a week or so when the swelling is completely gone.
Healing is going great. I am 9 days post op and he lifted all of my restrictions yesterday. I get my anchor stitches out next weekend, and then it is just an issue of using a scar-reducing cream for 3 months. I will get my after pics taken at my 6 week post op, but I will post some home photos in a couple of weeks of "the girls" and my arms. The results are pretty amazing, if I do say so myself. I am so excited for the LBL.
