Hi everyone!

It's that time and I'm def. ready to start my plastics journey!  I'm just starting out and doing research and I'm booking a few different consults with surgeons in the Dallas metroplex. Possibly Houston or Sherevport as well. 

I know I def. want a TT and BL and I'm still up in the air if I want implants or not? Anyway.....

I do have a couple of questions for everyone!  Feel free to give stories and opionions! I need info!

#1.  Should I do the TT and BL at the same time? or Should I do them in stages?

#2. If I do my BL first and the TT later down the road..... will the pulling of the TT effect my BL? As in pull the BL down? I know that sounds crazy but it's these types of things that worry me. LOL

TIA!

Hi Ash

#1.  Should I do the TT and BL at the same time? or Should I do them in stages?

Together...that way you can have one recovery, one time off work, less expense and mainly one exposure to anesthesia and the risks.

#2. If I do my BL first and the TT later down the road..... will the pulling of the TT effect my BL? As in pull the BL down? I know that sounds crazy but it's these types of things that worry me. LOL

There can be slight pulling of the breasts but usuall this is not a big deal.

TIA!

I had a tummy tuck done. I wish I would have had my breasts done at the same time to save the expense and down time. Just get it all done at the same time.
I can't wait to be able to shop in the misses sizes again!

I think I'm just gonna bite the bullet and have my TT and BL with implants all done at the same time!

I am three days post TT right now, and if I could have afforded it, I would have done both.  So if you got the cash do both at the same time!  One recovery! 
good luck!
