My first surgery is scheduled!
on 3/14/18 9:26 pm
I'm having my first surgery on May 10! It'll be a circumferential body lift, modified medial thigh lift (only needs to go half way down my thighs), lipo under my chin, sides of my knees, and upper flank/lower chest (basically a roll over my bottom side ribs), and fat transfer from my stomach to my buttocks.
The second surgery will probably happen when I return from MI in September, but he said it could be anytime after aout 6 weeks from the first one. It'll be a brachiolplasty, breast lift, and breast augmentation with small silicone implants.
He said a possible third op could be to eliminate laxity on my back if it still bothers me after the other stuff, but that I should wait to decide until everything else is pulled tight.
Anyway, meeting with him reinforced that I was picking the right person for me! I'm very excited!
How exciting! Congratulations on moving forward. I may not recognize you when I see you next time (LOL).
