And I was also wondering how long the recovery might be on average. Thank you to whoever can shed some light on these questions!

Define the word recovery. Able to resume normal activities OR your old self? I was cleared to go back to work and start exercise (beyond walking)again at 6 weeks. I was cleared for all activities at 8 weeks. In reality I didn't really feel like doing really active stuff like horse back riding, hard workouts etc until 10-12 weeks. I wore compression garments longer than required to keep swelling down. I was probably 3-4 months before I felt normal with minimal swelling.

Real self is a source for rough pricing info. I was always quoted multiple procedures. Also prices vary.

For me it was worth it. I am transformed.

<p>Hi, Mal0712</p> <p> </p> <p>A body lift is not a procedure, it is a combination of procedures that when put together are refer as LOWER BODY LIFT or UPPER BODY LIFT.</p> <p>Lower body lift: Leg lift, Tummy Tuck, liposuction, buttock lift, fat transfer to the buttock,</p> <p>Upper body lift: Breast lift, reduction, augmentation, reconstruction, arm lift, Lipo, </p> <p> </p> <p>If you tell me abit about your current condition I will be able to guide you better.</p> <p> </p> <p>Just a bit of advice, WHATEVER YOU DO, LEAVE YOUR BREAST PROCEDURE FOR LAST. trust me.</p> [/QUOTe

I haven't had the bypass yet. Basically my PCP told me she is 100% sure that I will have to have my arms, legs, tummy, butt, boobs, and possibly chin area done after surgery. Basically head to toe surgery. I was wanting to see an average amount spent on having all this kinda work done so I know how much I will looking at having to save up.

I had several different consults before having plastics and notice there are lots of theories. There are plenty of people who have breasts done at the same time as a lower body lift like I did. Worked out great and for me having fewer number of surgeries was a priority. To each his/her own.

I do think that the "body lift" - for most of us that is a lower body lift is the foundation procedure and really should be done at the beginning of the plastics journey as it does kind of create the canvas. I look at pix right after my surgery versus now and frankly i had immediate results, I was already fit and had good am muscles so once the skin was gone i had a flat tummy before the many weeks in compression garments. I am 8 months out from pretty extensive plastics and very pleased with results. I weigh 10 pounds less that I did at date of plastics.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
