After surgery did you require a second one to remove all the pleating?

I had 2 plastic surgeons tell me the same thing: first do a lower body lift, then in 3 months go back and make a 3-4" incision along the inner thigh and around the groin area to pick-up the remaing skin. Well, I had the lower body lift last Tuesday,and everything they said was true. I am tight every where except in my inner thigh. Even though he told me this would happen-I guess I was in denial and expected perfected legs. I stll have accordian pleats (though greatly improved) and I am still self conscious of my legs. He said he could do the remaining surgery in 3 months which would bring me up to the summer and that would be great! However, the time-frame really doesn't work for me. The only safe time for me to do it would be December (due to work). So I will still have accordian pleated thighs for the summer. When I do have the second surgery I will also have a booby adjustment from my ankles to a more feimine spot! He will put in "B" implants so they will stop looking like dried peach pits! The question is did YOU have to have the procedure in 2 separtate surgeries? How long apart? Pain level? And regarding the boobies: did you specify a certain shape, material? I hear there is a tear shape that is pretty? Do they still use silicon, saline, other materials? As you can see I am upset and confused. I WILL BE GREATLY APPRECIAITIVE OF ANY REPLIES!
