Had my last PS consultation....
Hi Ladies -
I have my last consult last night ( I've seen 3 Dr.s). It has been interesting, with each appt. the price got lower and lower. The best price I got was 17,900 for both my arms, chest lift and aug. ( with silicone).
I started out w/ 25,000 and then 19,000. I don't think that I'll get too much lower.
What I really liked about this last Dr. was that 90% of his surgeries are on weight loss patients, esp. gastric bypass ones. The other doctors didn't really touch on the fact that bypass patients really need to be healthy due to the malabsorbtion issue we got going on. I thought that was interesting.
One thing I thought was a little odd - was that he strongly recommended silicon implants, the other doctors didn't care either way which one you chose. Now I know that silicone look better and feel more natural to the touch.... but is it really that much of a difference? I guess it is a personal thing.... if anyone has any thoughts would love to hear.
I think I'm leaning towards this Dr., but I need to quit smoking.... he was adamant about that.... at least 4 weeks b/4 surgery.... i agree it is not good for me, but it is my one bad habit.... I know I will quit - actually I've set my mind on Nov. 1st..... i can't have surgery until late Jan or feb... due to vacation time needed, so that gives alot of time to be smoke free....
Well i just thought I'd share with y'all... I know I'm rambling.... but any thoughts about the PS thing, I would love to hear.
