    Default BA with a side of Lipo?

    I heard its cheaper to get your procedures done all together. Of course that depends on the procedure. Im specifically curious about a BA with lipo. Theres a few areas that wont change on my body even through workout so when I get my BA I want to get lipo too in my inner and outer thighs and love handles.

    Anyone had 2 procedures at once; if so, how was your experience? I would think at least a month to heal properly. How was the pain? How long did you have to be away from work?

    I had an areola reduc. with liposuction. I took a month off. Sometimes it is cheaper to get both done at the same time, but keep in mind that the risk of complications does increase. It is often recommended to have the two procedures done seperately in order to help ensure a safer journey through surgery. The first few days after surgery I felt like I was hit by a truck. But you get over the pain in a reasonable amount of time. I would not suggest lipo unless you really, really need it. It's no joke--it's a very serious surgery. From what I have seen, you don't need it. Why have stuff sucked out of your body when it's really not necessary? But if you must, I've done it and can give you an idea of what it's like.

    I had a friend who had lipo done and 6 months later she was even chubbier in other areas than before the lipo (no change in diet). I, personally, would not suggest doing lipo. Your recovery time may also increase as lipo and BA's are highly invasive of your body...and although it may not LOOK like a big deal, doing "everything at once" could put you down for a longer period of time.

    You have to do your research...but, there's no lipo out there that I've seen that's made so much difference to take any kind of chances...or to part with that much money.

    Good luck!

    OMG - when I was in LA a commercial came on the radio... free Lipo when you get a BA or Tummy Tuck. Then says the cheap prices $3800 for BA and like $4500 for Tuck. Just struck me as odd...

    I can understand a discount when getting multiple surgeries but this commercial just sounded weird.

    If you have hard to shift body fat especially on tummy and thighs, I really would reccomend using windsor pilates. Works a treat! You do have to work at it but results are great when combined with good diet.
    Don't do lipo! Too harsh. It really messes with your body.

    I had my BA (unders) with Lipo (abs, inner thighs, outer thighs, knees, and flanks) all done during the same surgery. I was in surgery for 7 hours. YEs, it was cheaper only b/c you don't have to pay for a second hospital/surgical suite bill and second aenisticia bill. Lipo usually gets cheaper the more sites you have done at one time. I was lucky that my mother-in-law is a surgical recovery nurse so she took care of me. She had to walk me to the bathroom, change my drains (yuk!), change my panties, and sponge bath me. My entire body was black and blue. I am very athletic so I recovered quickly, although still sore as hell. I was back in my normal routine (except exercise) within 4 days. Don't expect the full results from lipo until about 6 months post surgery. At first, you may even look fatter in those areas than before the lipo b/c of swelling but that will go away.

    So true. If you get lipo, do your damnest to not gain weight. When I gain weight it is in the most horrible, weirdest places ever, because I got lipoed in all the areas where fat naturally tends to store on a woman.

    Thanks Lola for your story. 4 Days?! Damn thats fast...of course I know not everyone recovers that fast. I didnt know you would most likely need someone after sugery like that. I though you just go home and sleep.

    So if you gain wieght back....where does it go...back to its original area or somewhere else?

    What Lola said about the anesthesia/hospital costs. You still pay for all the procedures.

    I've worked with a few dancers who've had lipo and a BA and turned out fine. In theory, lipo's supposed to be for people who have tried to lose weight in the areas they had done and it didn't work. Your body has a finite number of fat cells and they expand as you gain weight. There are no fat cells left to expand where they've been sucked out, so it's important to maintain your weight if you've had lipo. Otherwise you will indeed gain it in other places.

    TM, yes you gain it in other areas. For me, my calves, my tits (I'm already a 36DD and don't need more), and most hated area of my back. Nothing worse than fat spilling over your bra.

    Now, I was brinking on the edge of having body dymorphia when I had these procedures done. I was 13% body fat before the lipo and thought I was a heffer. There REALLY wasn't too much to suck out. I'm glad I had my outer thighs done b/c they were protruding a little but I should have skipped everything else.

    I'm mentally and physically much healthier now. But I do want a boob redo. As for lipo, I'd skip it unless you really have an obvious trouble area that makes you uncomfortable.

    One of my girlfriend had a BA and lipo and something to her face done all on the same day.She was in bed for about a month.When we talked on the phone she said that her body was very bruised,huge black welts,and that she got scared that it wasn't supposed to be that way and went to see her doc,and he told her that in her case it was normal.About 2 weeks later the bruises started to go away and everything else was healing ,and I've got to tell you,when I saw her,she looked amazing,wow!She said it was well worth it.

    I on the other hand am a little afraid of lipo,it seems like the most dangerous surgery to me and they say that it can leave your skin uneven as well.So I'll just stick with diet and exercise for now.
    You should choose what's best for you.

    Dimpling's always a potential hazard. What freaks me out is that bad lipo is a lot harder to fix than a bad boob job.

    Pretty much everyone that I've met whose had lipo looks amazing, but you just never know.

    LIpo scares me too ND. I have seen it first hand when it goes wrong. One girl I used to work with had it done and at first you couldn't even tell. But after she came back to work after having a baby, she looked really bad.

    I understand there is a new lipo procedure available that makes healing time much faster. It is about a grand more than the traditional procedure however.
