Plastic surgery before and after’s - Realself.com



Recommended Posts

I am looking into plastics. I noticed how results are so different for each person. Another unknown outcome after weight loss. Trying to decide on procedures and looking into out of pocket cost.

also, make sure you're looking at lower body lifts on people who've had massive weight loss. Results may be different than those where it's just a simple Tummy Tuck (like someone who's just a bit stretched out from having children). Although even among massive weight loss patients, plastic surgery results can vary...

Oh yes, I am more than a little stretched from giving birth. *smile* I'm a shar pei puppy

I’m glad people have shared their photos. It’s giving me a better idea of what to expect. Once I go in for a consult, I will have a better idea of what needs to be done.

Thank you for the links, @Healthy_life2! It was really interesting to scroll through the pictures to find someone who looks like I do right now and see where plastics could take me!

I have my consult on Friday!!

Going to move forward with Tummy Tuck and arm lift and "side boob". Also having him scope out my inner thighs to see what can be done there.

Judging by the current state of my arms, plastics will probably come into play for me. I’ll be watching your thread closely. Best of luck and excellent job on the weight loss!

Good luck!!! It's another wild journey - I'm going in for round 2 in less than 2 months!

I decided to split my body lift up, so I'll see if I'm glad I did afterwards. If you have any questions about the process or anything I'm here! :)

      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!!
