So who's having PS this week???
I am having phase one on Friday. I am starting with my thighs and upper and lower eyes. I wanna wear shorts and a bathing suit this summer so I figured the thighs should be first to give them time to heal. I am worried about the pain and swelling. I have second guessed having surgery but I am doing it scared or not. Phase two is tummy and face then maybe a phase three with arms and boobs. It all depends if insurance comes thru on the tummy. Dh thinks I am crazy but supporting me.I am concerned about the recovery of the thighs and having limited mobility. Any advice out there?
I am having BA next week Wed. It was so last minute. I had my appointment with the surgeon on Friday. Paid using carecredit to have surgery done on the 16th. Man I was thinking it was going to be in Mid February. The surgeon was actually referred to me by 5 of my friends who all went to him. I am so excited. I told him I don't want to go to big because I been there and I just want him to fill up the loose skin. That will take 500cc. OMG!!! My day is coming!!!
Congrats to you!!!

I AM!!! : ) I'm having a LBL with medial thigh lift, butt augmentation and a breast augmentation revision. YIKES am I getting nervous!!
Good luck on your surgery and recovery, Leslie. I had brachioplasty about three months ago and it's not so bad. The first couple of days are annoying/frustrating because you can hardly move your arms at all, but I didn't experience any pain and my arms look great now.
