    I was almost 60 when I had mine. And I know a couple other people who had PS in their 60s.

  • If this grosses anyone out please let me know and I will remove. But it’s fascinating to me.

I’ll come bk after I get my quote from the PS on the 26th. ??
How did everyone pay for it? Did you save all of it? And pay cash?Take a personal loan out at the bank? Care credit?

I paid for it -- but I used some inheritance money I got when my dad passed. Some people take out home equity loans or loans from their 401(k)s (although I wouldn't recommend the latter unless you're desperate) - or like you said, personal loans.

I totally agree on the 401k. I would Never touch it either.

The panniculectomy portion of my procedures (Breast Lift, Arm Lift, Tummy Tuck) was covered by insurance, as was the hospital stay and all meds, the rest was covered by my bank account.

I wouldn’t recommend this. I went to the casino with $100 and hit a 20k jackpot. Told my husband Ok I’m doing it! I never win like that. If I double my money I leave. Or if I lose my $100
I leave. Lol.

So excited for you!! Wish mine wa behind me as well! Still finishing consults. The soonest this surgeon can get me in is Feb

Did you do only an aug to the breast or a lift as well?

I’ll be having a TT, breast lift w aug

I didn’t need a lift I just got the augmentation. 345cc. Today is day 3. I’m feeling pretty darn good. Still sore. My doctor is 2 hours away. Closest option I have. Mine was drainless. I came home
Immedietly after. I will go back at one week. I work for a doctor and know a general Surgeon fairly well so I knew I could call on them if I needed.

My husband has always been kinda funny about me wanting to get my breast done (even before weight lost weight gain weight loss etc). He always said I feel like anytime a man buys a woman boobs someone else ends up getting them in the end. Which hurts. I’ve almost always worked. But I worked because I enjoyed it. We used anything I made just to blow and have fun. So when I won. I said welp I guess I can pay for it all myself. He is a great husband. He just is weird about some things. He has cute dimples so it just melts me and all is ok ?

Get lots of quotes. The price differences are crazy. The doctor I would have never let touch me was the most !!!!

If you are willing to travel, check out Miami too! Even the most expensive PS in Miami is cheaper than the lowest priced PS in my home state.




I'm paying $11K for a Circumferential TT (aka LBL), BR/BL/BA w/ Lipo to flanks and upper abdomen. I've heard that the price for those procedures just went up $17K, but even that is way cheaper than my local surgeons, and in my opinion my local surgeons aren't as good at tummy tucks.


I was curious on yours. Does your cost cover post op care too? If not how long are you staying and do they help you find care. I think you may have posted on another thread. Miami might be where I go next year to get my backside lifted. I haven’t found anyone’s work here that’s anything like some of the doctors there.

Money was the hardest part but I traveled to Mexico for my surgeries. To the hospital owned by BariatricPal. I thought my surgeon was excellent as was the hospital. I managed my after care by being in contact with the doctor via email and sending photos. Although it seemed I knew what to do myself anyway even though I had some challenges due to lifelong chronic illness, I healed well.

my primary care wanted nothing to do with the fact that I had plastics miss I’m just playing devils advocate ... yeah whatever. But I knew I made the right choice. I removed the one drain I had at home by myself. I also did my own incision care when I had any issues. Which honestly even if the doctor was in the same town I think results would basically be the same. Then again perhaps I’d not have had such an awesome doctor.

As for financial I had a limit and came up empty by the time I was done but don’t regret it. It was money saved, I wasn’t planning on plastics it wasn’t something I thought I could do. Considering I live on a very tiny budget. But with help it happened.

I had belt lipectomy/butterfly lift with some stomach muscle tightening, thigh lift and augmentation.
