I <3 My New Boobies
Who was your surgeon? I am thinking about having a breast lift and I really would love a lower body lift with augmentation and an upper tummy tuck (had a panni in 2003 but above my belly button is a mess). I would love my arms and thighs and my face while I am at it but I don't think I will ever have enough money for everything I want. If I could only have one it would be the breasts.
Anyway, what is the cost like?

I had some major pain, but since I got a different compression garment (best $150 ever spent!) I have been feeling great! Very little pain, and what I do have is very manageable! I'm tired so I'm resting a lot, and letting people pamper me.
I'm in Mexicali, Mexico. I flew from Los Angeles to Imperial, which is a very short, easy flight, and was picked up by the hospital driver (included) and he brought me to my friend's house where I've been staying. I had my labs, tests, consultation and surgery the following day at Hispano Americano hospital, was kept overnight there, and came home that afternoon. My friend and her neighbors are taking good care of me. They had a party in my honor last night!
I looked into Dr. S but got a much better deal here, especially since I didn't have to pay any hotel or food costs at all.
Honestly this breast lift is the best thing that has ever happened to me. I stood in front of the mirror today looking at them and just bawled my eyes out. I'm already that happy.

Awwww..... I'm so glad you are so happy!! I know what you mean about crying. Something amazing happened that is allowing me to get my surgery now (thought I'd have to wait years) and when I got the news, I cried, too. I can only imagine how much I'll cry after my surgery!!

Definitely overdid it today,so the evening and afternoon were bad, but I see the doctor tomorrow, so I'm sure I'll get a lecture that will remind me to take it easy!
I don't know how I feel about pics. I'm not at all shy about people seeing my work, and let my friend who was interested stay in the room and ask questions during the consultation and the drawing on me and everything, and I've always been comfortable sharing pictures before, but there's something about them. I'm so in love that I feel like I want to keep them all to myself! Weird, huh?
I'll think about it. I get to see them without bandages tomorrow!
