Plastic Surgery QUESTIONS??

I have a consult set up to see how much its going to cost me for a Tummy Tuck and Boobs, Do you know what types of questions I should ask??  I have also posted this on the Plastic Forum...

Thanks!

Be sure to ask if they have experience with bariatric patients. You're not just going in for a nip and tuck. Ask about pain levels and how it will be controlled, what the expected recovery time is, what activities you should avoid and for how long...ummm I dunno. lol

I had a BR 6 six yrs ago and there is a website that helped me with a list of questions to ask my surgeon www.breasthealthonline.com.  So far they are holding up with the new weight loss ,but I am not beyond getting a touch up if needed.Goodluck

Thanks!

The skin of the formerly obese is very different from say a "mommie makeover" so ask how many patients they have had that lost say 100lbs (not sure how much you've lost).

Also, make sure to really look at their before and after pictures.  Surgeons are very different results and their taste can be different from yours.  I looked at many pictures from different surgeons before I found someone who's work I really like.  Check to make sure that they specialize in the processed that you are looking to have.  They should have a great deal of experience and be known for, body sculpting and working with WLS patients.  You don't want a general surgeon, make sure they have the appropriate training. 

Thanks! I'm writing my questions down right now!! My apt is on the 28th :)
