Anyone had a TT and Breast Lift at the same time?



Recommended Posts

Hey Guys!

I'm forteen months out and am 20 pounds from goal. I've lost 120 pounds and my surgery was 5/21/12. I really need a TT and breast lift but have no idea where to start. I was self pay for my surgery because my insurance had an exclusion on wls!! Insurance sucks! My husband's employer pays 1400.00 a month for our insurance and it pays terribly.

Anyway, anyone have any information on the cost of a breast lift and TT? I don't think I will need a body lift. I do have skin but it isn't too bad. I think a normal TT will do. Anyone here had them both at the same time? Would love to hear about your experience.

Any information will be appreciated!!

:)

I have really enjoyed reading about the various procedures that people have had done after their weight loss. It is inspiring. It looks like many people go to Mexico and have both procedures done, although there is a longer recovery time. Good luck!

Hiya, I can't advise you on cost cos I'm in the UK... I waited nearly three years before my op - still not at goal (9lbs away from surgeon's goal - 24/8 lb away from my ultimate goal)...

I did have a TT and BL at the same time - I am now nearly 5 mths post op and I feel like a new woman!

The recovery for the TT is long and arduous but the BL was a breeze (prob cos I focused on the TT!). I wouldn't have a problem recommending the two procedure together, based on my experience. But you need to check with your PS.

If you are looking for experiences, stories and photos go and have a look on realself.com

It is a really good and informative site that gives you real life reviews covering the good the bad and the indifferent!

Good luck!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
