I ended up with a refund on 2 out of 3 surgeries. One was a little more. Can't tell you exactly but I remember thinking it was reasonable.

Good luck to your surgery, I never experience such surgery yet but I'd been through anesthesia. I know it's tough but you can do it.
I had my PS almost 2 months ago and am very happy with the results! I did do everything all at once, and I am really glad I did. The worst part for me were the compression garments - I was able to tolerate them for about a week but once I started weaning off the pain meds I began to have panic attacks. I have been taping my scars instead at the instruction of my surgeon. I look so good, I am very pleased! I still haven't done after photos yet, but I will.

CarrieJane,
I ran across your post researching ways for Tricare to cover my surgery. They did do my gastric bypass in 2001, tummy tuck in 2004, and thigh lift in 2005. I was young and still under a parent, but my ID expired before I could complete my arms. Now I am married to a soldier and would like to get it done.
I hope you're still a member and following this post. I would love to speak with you more on the subject. Your post gave me so much hope!

I really didn't do anything special prepping for my facelift/neck lift - just no water/food after midnight. Be prepared to have pain and ensure you have ice packs ready to go at your house. Of course, you will need someone to drive you home and put you to bed. Follow your surgeon's recommendations to the "T" about applying your silver ointment to the scars and don't pull on your face when you wa**** The bruising went away for me in about 2 weeks and I AM THRILLED I HAD THE SURGERY! Would do it all over again! I am in Jacksonville FL and my surgeon was Dr. Michael Duffy.
Yes Garland right outside Dallas. I am using Dr. Standefer in Dallas

Thanks!! I see you are in Texas, too. What part and who are you using for your facelift? I am outside of Houston and plan to use Dr. Yarish for my facelift someday. I used Dr. LoMonoco for my body work (love him) but he does not do faces.
