I 'm curious: if you are done losing, which PS procedures would you most want?
Boobs. 1000%. They look awful right now... like pools of wrinkly fabric... and they used to be my best feature. I can live with a squishy tummy and draggy thighs and even droopy arms... but my poor tatas need help...

I am not a doctor, but I play one at work.
It varies a LOT depending on geography, surgeon, and surgical facility. I paid about $5500 for mine using a surgical hospital (cheaper than full service hospital) about 3.5 years ago.

Arms.
I had arms done first. The rest could be easily hidden with shapewear. The batwings drove me absolutely insane.
Then I had a lbl/bl done together.
If I were rich I'd get implants and an inner thigh lift, but if it never happens, I'm happy as-is.

I HATE this question. All the areas look like s#%$!%t. I guess it would have to be the ones most visible to the public so I can wear more things.... so first would be my thighs. Second would be arms. This way I could wear shorts, swimsuits, sleeveless stuff, etc. Since I can only have 2 done - no matter what I picked the rest would look terrible so I wouldn't be happy with my appearance even if I picked items I would only see.
I'm saving for everything to be done though. And getting everything done, the order would be panni, thighs, butt....then arms, boobs. Probably need neck in another 10 years at which point I'd also get my under eyes done.

I have got to do something about my stomach area. My arms and legs have slimmed down and I have no butt or boobs so the 45 lbs I still have to lose is all concentrated in my stomach. From the side I look 6 months pregnant. (I'm not exaggerating either) I will need a suck and tuck for the whole abdominal area. It keeps me in a large dress size and I look fatter than I am. Its more than cosmetic too! I can't hardly do the ab exercises because of all the volume around my middle.
