I'm considering having a tummy tuck, liposuction and probably a breast lift (but without implants). I had three children in five years and breastfeed them to at least one year each, now i am done having children and want my life back but i cannot seem to be happy and go forward when i look at myself in the mirror.
Please has anybody out there had these procedures done, which hospitals and how much did the cost, any implications afterwards?
Please help! my body is saggy and i want to do something about it and move on with life. Thanks for serious answers. I reside in UK by the way.

Oh I know how you feel!
I looked at some of the procedures you mention and they work out quite expensive. For the three procedures you mention it would probably cost around £10,000. If you have them done with the same clinic you may get a package deal :) When looking at price, make sure to check that the price includes pre-op assessment, procedure itself, and hospitalisation cost. Also need to consider the cost of follow up visits which will definitely be one visit or more if there were to be any problems. Also make sure that there are no olittle extras tucked in there that may come as a nasty surprise.
Implications.... Post op bleeding and infection, scar tissue and adhesions, as well as possible self image issues (even though the change is for the better!). If all goes well then you should be able to get on with your life and be happier about yourself.
There are many many clinics. Perhaps talk to your GP and ask if the have any experience (good or bad) of any clinics, search the net and compare everything!
Good luck.

I had my breasts refilled as like you children messed with my body, I hade them done in April but I had them done in Spain so that wont help you much, (they were implants but were only the size I had before the kids came along,) I was not in pain as such, but I did have a bad back for 24 hours and got through a lot of painkillers and deep heat, the bandages came off after 3 days when they fit you with a special bra (which you have to leave on for several weeks) and you are not allowed to lift your kids up for about four/six weeks and you are not suppose to drive either for a while.
hope this info helps

Changing your body won't change the emotional issues inside of you. There is a fine line between thinking logically (like... i have this "problem" and i want to do "this" about "it") and thinking without logic. If you have a problem with saggy breasts, then fix them, but if you are trying to heal emotionally by changing something on the outside you will never be happy.

Tummy tuck surgery is very safe nowadays. My cousin got her breast reduction, tummy tuck and facelift surgery in India by the company called Forerunners Healthcare .The Price for the surgery she paid in India was very less. She paid 30% of the cost she was quoted in America.
Forerunners Healthcare is very famous in India. They arrange cosmetic and plastic surgery for foreigners in India. I read a lot about them in the Newspapers and about their patient stories. They arrange financing for USA, Canadian, UK and other international patients who plan to have surgery abroad for low price, as the breast reduction, tummy tuck, facelift and other cosmetic surgery is not covered by insurance. They also have photos pasted of their International patients. You can checkout their website. There are huge cost savings. As a doctor I personally believe that surgery can be easily handled in India, as the quality of healthcare available In India is simply best in the world. The surgeons are USA/UK trained and facilities are 5 star.

Hope this helps.

I think you should go for it. BUT first try the gym (if not already) ..... have you tried every other option already? Councillor? They might help you love your body the way it is. Everyone is different and only you yourself will understand how you feel. Good luck

I've only had one child (but I know how you feel - you don't really feel like your body is your own anymore) but sweetheart a bit a exercise is cheaper and less risky than all that unecessary surgery.

If you think you need it try buying a new mirror or better still ignore the person who put the idea in your head to start with.

If you're ethnic which I presume you are from your pic, you'll get it done on the NHS no bother. They'll bend over backwards to accommodate you.
