First off, if you are in NJ, we are having a meetup in early March in Philly. There will be OH'ers from NJ/PA and even further (hopefully) so keep an eye out for alerts if you are interested!!


I went to 2 docs for opinions:

Dr. Gatti in Cherry Hill NJ, a good doc, I know many of his patients- charges 14,600 or thereabouts for TT, lipo, lift, augment with silcone. This includes all fees.

I went with Dr. Cedrone at Pennsylvania Plastic Surgery in Philly, she does alot of bariatrics. She charged 17,000 for all of the above, including all fees.

Hope that helps!!

Looking GREAT!!! If you don't mind my asking did you pay out of pocket or did your insurance cover it or some? THANKS!

I was very lucky, my father offered to pay for this.

I could have lobbied insurance for 6 months and maybe they would have covered my breast lift..but im on a schedule so I didnt even try and my GP doc is very scrupulous so she wouldnt have faked a stomach rash for me either to get a panni removal covered.

 You look beautiful! I can't wait till I get there. I have not had my surgery yet, I have been over weight for about 9 years. Before that, I was very thin with a good size bust. I am a DDD now. I hope after my surgery that I will go back down to at least a D and not have to have them done, but I may have to have them lifted. Is that all you did, was have yours lifted, or did they add some? Thanks for the pics., they are very inspiring!!!

Thanks!

After long consideration I did decide to augment AND lift. I was always larger breasted and when my 40 D/DD's went to 32/34 C..mostly skin, and very down south I decided on an implant also.

I went with a small 250cc moderate profile plus silicone implant under the muscle. They are still swollen and not settled so Im not sure what the final result will be. We were thinking a D but they are a little larger than that right now.

Not everyone loses their breasts.. hopefully you wont!

You look great! I don't think your scarring will be bad at all. I had a breast reduction 8 years ago and I'm happy everyday that I did so. My scars aren't noticeable (and there was a LOT of cutting!). I fully plan to have a TT and BL (if needed) when I complete my journey. Good luck at vet school!

 Thanks for sharing....I am always looking at internet sites with TT post op pics, but they frequently hide the scars under their underwear which is annoying, because I want to see what most scars look like...

From what I know, they usually extend hip to hip, which is where yours seem to be....I wonder if they could have done it lower closer to the pubic bone, was that what you were thinking?? I think it looks nice and straight line, and thinner than some I've seen online, so that's a big plus! It should heal nicely and still fit under a lot of bikinis, I'd think....

And it looks like BA/BL is perfect size for your frame....and very natural looking....I think down the road, you will definitely be ecstatic with your results on everything....happy for you and jealous...LOL..
