This thread is interesting to me because my plastic surgeon would not do my tummy tuck and breasts at the same time. He said to achieve the best results, he would do the TT first and then my BL/BA. He said it is better to pull down with the TT before lifting up the breasts. I am almost 9 weeks PO and am having my breasts done in a few weeks. I am so intrigued by the other surgeons who have combined so many procedures when my surgeon was adament that I wait...

 My surgeon is all about combining surgeries to save on anthesia and facility fees. I intially had planned on doing my surgeries in 2 phases but due to me rushing and wanting my arms done at less than one yr out it has taken 3 and I still have my legs to go.  I had the extended TT fleur de leis, BL and arm revision on March 13 then on April 30th  I had TT revsion on the anchor incision and had butt lift and bA I was supposed to have the thigh lift but my blood count dropped.The butt lift was a snap. So far I think the TT and the BA was the most painful and justifiably since it is muscle work. . I also had lipo of the thighs on 04/30. It did hurt but debulked the thights quit a bit.  DR tells me the thigh lift recovery is easy. I had the arms done in 2/2009 and recovery was easy. I was off work 2 weeks with each stage, I have a desk job, I am just anxious to get these thighs done. I am loving how clothes fit after the TT and butt lift. It is so fun to shop and will be better After these thighs go. :) I just hate having to wear larger pants in the waist so they can fit over my dang ole thighs. Just another month to go,....
