I would love to have plastic surgery, tummy tuck for sure but would like to get my arms, thighs done too. And unlike most women, i never had big breast (small D at my biggest) and i'm now a small C/B cup...i'll be wearing my girls' training bras by the time i'm done so i would love breast enlargements.

But financially, i doubt i'll be able to swing it. Here, medicare sometimes cover it but after contacting them, they told me that they rarely agree and you have to show pictures and have serious health issues caused by the extra skin. Stupid cause the approval is easier to get if you had a weight loss surgery.

Even if i could figure out the 25+k that it would cost...i would feel way too guilty to spend that kind of money on me when we have 4 kids to put through school. thank goodness for clothes, lol.

I agree. I would love to do it but realistically, not sure if it will ever happen because it is a lot of money! :o

10 years ago, my breast augmentation cost 5K roughly. My surgeon determined that I didn't need the incision that runs down and across for my lift. Instead he basically cut my aereolas off and repositioned them over my implants, which are under the muscle. Sounds tragic, and it was! I don't really have scarring that you can see unless you're really looking for it.
