I didn't think I would ever need to have implants done, maybe just a lift....HOLY CRAP this weekend I was looking at them and they are now saggy and getting to be bothersome. I think I see implants in my future.....quite a ways of course as I am not even 1/2 way done with losing, but still!

I used to be curvy and had a DD chest and thought having them smaller would be nioce but now that I've lost almost all my weight I'm thinking it wouldn't be so bad I'm now at a B and they are so saggy. I think maybe for my birthday! that gives me about 6 months to start saving.

Hi girls,

$5700? Where? If you want cheaper cost fo plastic surgery, I suggest yo go abroad - Argentina, Brazil, Costa Rica, etc. There are medical tourism agencies where you can get a free quote so there's nothing much to lose if you just ask for a quote. Then you compare them to help you decide which country and who will perform your surgery.

The cost of plastic surgery abroad is very affordable. The quality of medical procedures are very competitive with that in US and Europe. Your $5000 can already include your hotel accommodation, food, and even air fare (though most all-inclusive packages don't include air fare).

I hope this little info helps.

I am with all of you ladies. Before surgery I was a 40 DD and now I am a C and very saggy and no bra fits right. I always feel as if people can see that the bra I am wearing is not fitting right and they see that I am not comfortable with my breast

I always feel as if people can see that the bra I am wearing is not fitting right and they see that I am not comfortable with my breast. I am hoping in the near future I came get surgery. I have a bigger problem with that. I have keloid skin and will have an awful scar. Has anyone had this experience? If so please give some advice.

yup count me in on the bad post op boobies too....
i was a 38DD before, and i just bought a few new bras....32Bs

uhmmmmmm just picture what they look like now.....not pretty.
I was hoping the weight would come off my ass first, but the boobs was the first to go for me. I was told by my surgeon that i had to wait a year before having any type of plastics done, and now that i have past that mark, i am sooooo ready to get them back. Now financing them....thats a WHOLE different story. lol i was told it would run about $5000 in my area.

Get this....When I lost a lot of weight some years back I decided to get a mastopexy (lift plus implants). Heck, I never thought I would gain so much weight. The cost was just over $10K. They turned out excellent. I loved them for the few years I was thin. Prior to the mastopexy I was a 34 C-D. After I was a 34 DD-DDD. They rocked! Anyway, after the pregnancy weight gain MY BOOBS ARE HUGE! It's really uncomfortable. Sometimes I kick myself for ruining my boobs but then I remember.....It wasn't my money

My hubby said he will sponsor me for the rebuild a bitch program. I'll get them redone and most likely by the same surgeon...DR. Jewel in Eugene, OR.......I LOVE YOU MAN!
I love plastic surgery which may not be a good thing

Let's see........Tummy Tuck, Lipo, & boob job and I should be good to go.

Mary Jane,
I also have skin that Keloids, not fun but I know there is a process that they go in through your armpit with flat implants then inject them to proper size. maybe the scar wouldn't be as noticable.

I have the potential to develope keloid scars also. With implants the whole is so minimal and the small insiccion is in your pit or under the full part of the breast. I had the full meal deal and the scars under my breast aren't that great but my husband said he doesn't mind...He says it Nightmare Before Christmas sexy

I had such excellent results and the surgery experience was not at all bad. I don;t hesitate telling anyone to go for it.
