I had a tummy tuck, breast lift & augmentation, and an arm lift in January. Yes, I could use the bathroom on my own from day 1. Thank goodness!

If you don't mind me asking, about how much did this cost? Im hoping to get all of these (or at least the tuck and breast augmentation) and am curious how I should be budgeting for it! I know my insurance wont touch it since they didn't cover any of the VSG! (if you don't feel comfortable disclosing the cost no worries!!)

I did a ton of research and found that PS is much, much cheaper in Florida.My quotes there were $10,000-$16,000. I went with the doctor who charged $16,000 as he has a private practice and a strong emphasis on safety. The cheaper quote was from a high volume large clinic with many doctors. There are others here who have gone out of the country to the Dominican Republic, Mexico, or other countries and have paid less. I’d encourage you to review as much as you can about safety records wherever you chose.

I had arm lift, breast lift and tummy tuck.

I could go to the bathroom no prob from day 1.

Re: arm lift specifically: anything that required me to lift my arms UP was a bit of an issue in the days immediately afterwards (i.e., reaching up in the kitchen cupboards, taking a t-shirt on/off, washing my hair, etc...)
