You need a therapist's approval for plastic surgery?

i "think" this is what you are trying to say......

you are trying to convince/explain to your therapist how/why you want to have PS

your therapist is not supportive

if someone does have a therapist who is totally receptive to PS

please give me a copy to give my therapist

so she can understand where i'm coming from???

is that what you are trying to say??

i am pretty sure no one needs approval from therapist before PS

therapist wants/needs to talk to you about your expectations of having PS surgery

similar to therapist wanting to talk to you about your expectations of having WLS

wants to make sure that you realize PS is NOT going to solve your weight issues, problems

that's what my therapist and i discussed in detail before my face lift in June

congrats on loosing 140 lbs

good luck

Do you need the letter so your therapist can submit it to insurance and hopefully demonstrate that plastics are medically required?

Hi all:

I am gathering letters of support of plastic surgery from my medical providers, including my therapist. She is very much in support of what I want. I would like to just show her a sample letter so she has an idea of what she can say. I'm the first of her patients who make this request.

Thanks!


@@AvaFern That is correct! Sorry I wasn't clear.

@@proudgrammy Thanks Kathy... I'm trying to provide my therapist with a template letter, so she can have something to work from. She's never written this type of letter before.

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

      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! 😞
