Pricing???
Hi Bailey,
I had the "works" done after losing 115 lbs. My first of two operations was 11/08 (breast lift w/ augmentation, lower face lift, neck lift, and brachioplasty). The next operation was 3/09 (circumferential body lift). Everything for both surgeries was $28,000 -- I equate it to the price of a new car, although I love my body way more than I've ever enjoyed a new car!
Obviously, you'll need to wait until you lose your weight and then see exactly what you need. I used a surgeon who specializes in post-bariatric patients and although I met with six different doctors for consultations, I know I choose the BEST!
Good luck.

I think it alsodepends on alot of factors. I lost 91 with RNY & am scheduled for a LBL/Anchor next tuesday. I have maintained for about 2 years now. I have seen people who lost 150 or more lbs and really only needed a small TT. I am only 5' tall...and I had most in my middle area. I would love 2 get thighs, arms & breast lift...but right now this will have to do. It also depends on your age and how longg you have been over weight. BUT...that be being said...Best of luck with your surgery. It was the BEST thing I ever did for MYSELF. Let us know your journey and never forget...there are alot of people here...all ages, sizes and from all walks of life. We love to share ourselves and help others...we have all been through it.
