Realistically, when do you consider plastic surgery?
I was approved for a boob lift 12 years ago, but the surgeon suggested I have my kids first and get below 230lbs. Well now I'm 207lbs and still going (ad have 2 boys) and I know I should wait until my goal but I'm just so darn excited to lift these girls back into position (that they've NEVER really been in). I made a consult appointment with the same surgeon I saw 12 years ago again and go Saturday. I know she'll tell me what I should do AGAIN, just wondering if anyone can share how soon after surgery or goal they got their lifts and tucks.
Thanks ya'll!

Lifts alone are no longer covered. Not sure if you were approved for a reduction whi*****ludes a lift but if it was just a lift alone, they stopped covering it. If it included a reduction, I would wait until you are at your goal weight as the girls can sometimes shrink a lot in the last 20 lbs and you'd hate to go too small and regret not waiting.
It was just a lift last time. I thought I wanted a reduction but she didn't think I needed it. Anyhoo...I know some things are going to cost me but I've NEVER liked my breasts, even before kids when I was young, so it's VERY important to me to have them looking good before I die! No matter the cost! LOL But I do remember her warning me if we did it TOO soon I could end up with 2 hanging sacks of flesh at the end of it! LOL What a visual!

I always had one breast larger than the other but now I have one that sags halfway to my waist and the other sags all the way heaven knows where they will be when the WL finishes. Sheesh

I tell epeople at least 2yrs from your surgery date and the surgeon will want you at a stable weight for a minimum of 6 months...which puts you right around the 2yrs mark
Even if the scale doesn't move, weight still is shifting like crazy..another vet can chime in here. You don't want to have plastics too soon or you'll be disappointed down the road
