Having both procedures at once was the right decision for me - I wasn't prepared to go through an extra surgery if I could just power through.

The incisions for the thigh lift are tricky to describe. One incision goes from the crotch area down the inside of my thigh 7". The other incisions are along the line your underwear goes - from the top outside of your "triangle", down to the inside of the thighs (still where the underwear goes, and then when it gets to the back it follows the line of the bottom of your buttocks.

I had my surgery in Bellevue, WA just outside Seattle.

I'm from Seattle/Mercer Island. Just curious as to your doctor and cost (if you don't mind sharing). Looks wonderful. How much time off from your recovery.

I used Dr. Christine Nygaard in Bellevue. I think she is AMAZING. I have loved her work. I don't have a traditional job, so I can't exactly say for time off, but I'm guessing you would want 4 weeks for a desk job and would be required 6 weeks for a physical job. You might be able to go back earlier for a desk job but I wouldn't have wanted to. I will PM you info on cost.

She also did my facelift, I will attach a photo. The two photos on the left are before - one with makeup and a professional camera that hid lots of flaws, and another more bare bones photo that shows what was really going on. The photo on the right is just a few days ago. My face surgery was about three months ago.

She will also be doing my lift/aug in June.

Zowee! You look great!! I am scared to death of a face lift - I wanna look like me, but better. Usually the mouth looks funny - but yours looks awesome!

Thank you! I got a necklift, lower bleph (lower eyelid lift), and brow lift but did not get a lift to the mid part of my face.

I look different from the surgery because my turkey wattle (sp?) is gone (yippee!!) and because you can actually see my eyes. Also, my brows have a more feminine look I think. But another big difference in those photos is that I've lost a fair amount of weight.

I've been happy with the results.

Wow,amazing what they can do… You look terrific please PM me at your convenience would love to see a close-up. I actually already sawI plastic surgeon since I lost 56 pounds and about to have My weight-loss surgery. As soon as I reach my goal I am going in for surgery. I talked to my doctor about it when I have the clearance… I know my plastic surgeon said I just needed my arms, possibly my Hips . my regular physician did mention that I will have extra skin on my face:( :(I can't go there, just yet

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
