May I ask, did you do your proceedures as an outpatient? I had a consult for a LBL and BL and they told me they would send me home same day! It kind of freaked me out because I live an hour from the hospital. Gee, I stayed a night in the hospital when I had lap band surgery!
May I also ask how much you paid? If you don't want to say exaclty, perhaps you can give me a range?
Thank you for the help and inspiration!

Most people seem to pay anywhere from 15-30K for a lbl/bl. Mine was the higher end of that range, but I think my doctor is one of the top 10 in the country when it comes to reconstructive surgery after massive weight loss. I think my results show what an artist he is.

You look incredible! Thanks for posting the pictures of your progress. I chose Dr. L and really appreciate seeing his work. I hope I am as luck as you. I would LOVE to have those results after my surgery in November!
You must be so proud. You have worked so hard to get to this point and you look absolutely beautiful. Congratulations!
