I went to another consultation with a plastic surgeon in Scottsdale to see how much it would cost me to get a full body lift. I’m not just looking at cost when it boils down to it, but it is a factor that needs to be within my means. After the doctor educated me on a million ways we can go about tucking a stomach, lifting breasts, and even pinning my thighs back in place, I spoke with the financial lady, and she quoted me another 35K in procedures. This would include follow up doctor visits, and 3 hospital stays, and all the fixings. Did you know they bill the breast implants themselves as a “product” and the rest of the stuff is a service?
Here is the list of items I would need to get done on my poor deflated self:
1. Breast lift (with keyhole incisions)
2. Breast augmentation (size C – 250cc’s seemed like a good size)
3. Arm lift, or whatever the heck it’s called
4. Inner thigh lift
5. Outter thigh lift (I probably won’t get this one because I don’t find it all that necessary)
Piece me back together doc! There is no way I can get these things done any time soon, but it’s nice to know the price and that I CAN be fixed if I win the lotto.
The plastic surgeon told me that I have a small frame, no hernias (yay!), and a good fat to muscle ratio. My favorite part was when he told me I had a “good bellybutton”
When I was a teen, I always wanted to get my belly button pierced, but because of my size I couldn’t be all cute and hip like the other girls.
So I’m still on a search for a surgeon with a great track record, in expensive, and can make me feel comfortable.
Other than these consultations I’ve been going to, I’ve also been going through a lot of stressors. My ex fiance is finally moving out of my apartment, I lost my job and money is looking scarce, I’m trying to keep my weight stable (I keep losing and gaining the same 2 pounds over and over – Current weight: 128) and then I go through some mid life crisis and get a 8 week old puppy. I tell you, even though I want to eat a hole through the cabinets, I am staying focused on nourishing my body. Nourishment helps with me being happy.
7 more days until my 24th birthday!
