    I too am curious what the cost is. I know my doctor told me I can do my breasts now, it's what bothers me the most. I am not sure what else i need (although the thighs I HATE seeing). I have been lucky around the tummy and am hoping it stays that way. Question though... liposuction... I feel like there isn't much to take from, it's more skin than anything... anyone else feel that way? I was looking at the brazilian butt lift (since the butt is now gone with the girls) and I was told by one nurse I didn't have enough fat to use (which blew my mind,really me not fat enough... first time in my life I ever heard that one!).

    I would love to join you in July but I'm not sure I'll be able to get this 47 lbs off in time for then. Have you seen any of Dr. Lara's work? Also, are you going through Louise or someone else? Thx

    Do you know if they do video consults? It will cost me about a grand to get to Vegas (without spending money lol) and so if I can do things by video that's better. (I live in Canada.)

    You know after I got back from Tijuana getting the sleeve I told my husband I may not ever go back there . If I go for a mommy makeover, I'm going to try to find someone to share the date with me. I cannot go back to Mexico alone again. I guess I'm just too chicken. I did make some friends while there but it was still kinda lonely! LOL! Ive heard great things about Dr. Lara though.

    I was quoted $5500.00 with Dr Lara for the mommy makeover. Implants, breast lift, tummy tuck and one area of liposuction. I'm hoping for July or August... I still have 15-20lbs to lose.
