Have you ever had 'work done'?

The board seems a little slow tonight! Let's discuss plastic surgery-- anyone partake?

 I've recently lost about 55 lbs since having DD#2 and while I joked in the past about having a tummy tuck, DH has brought it up a couple of times when I've complained that my skin on my stomach is now wrinkly-- I doubt I'd seriously I'd take him up on it, but just curious if anyone here has had work done...

I will be getting a reduction and lift once I am done BFing and dried out.  I have some major back issues and my doc is recommending it so hope insurance helps out.  I am pretty excited.

Yes - nose job in high school, spider veins injected with saline to get rid of them, and botox once.

It was all worth it

Yes. Nose job at 16 and most recently breast reconstruction and lift (not really by choice - post cancer).

I had weight loss surgery in late December and have already lost 65 lbs.  As soon as I finish losing weight, I plan to have as much excess skin removed as is possible.  And I want my boobs reduced too.

i used to see no point in plastic surgery, but now id give anything for a mommy makeover. I am waiting to see if I will ever have another baby, then Im going to probably have a lift, tummy tuck and lipo. I work really hard at the gym at least 4 to 5 days a week, i eat healthy, and by body fat percentage has decreased a lot, but i don't see much results when i look at my body. I think the shot might have had something to so with it, so i got the mirena a few weeks ago. my boobs are just ridiculous and i hate them. before i was preg i was barely a C, then i went all to way up to a DDD, and they have only gone down to a DD. They are so floppy and saggy. They dont even feel like boobs they just feel like they are full of water. the biggest reason i want plastic surgery is because i am so self conscious and it afftects my sex life with DH. Im even embarrassed to wear shorts because i got some stretch marks on the inside of my knee area. im thinking about my quality of life.

If I had the money, I'd do it. I used to be all, "ooh, just accept your body." But I've lost 45lbs since having DD, am back at my pre-baby weight, and my tummy is an absolute mess. I love that it carried my baby and I respect that, but no matter how hard I work my abs, that skin is still there. It's the only part of my body I'd want work done on, and I'll probably never do it.... just wishful thinking.

I had my breast done when I was 21. I'm not against a little Lipo someday :0)

I just had a reduction in August. I chose to wait until we were sure we were not having any more kids. Best thing I ever did. I'm 5' 1" and I had no torso....seriously none. I was having major back problems and tried PT, weight lifting to increase muscle mass, etc. My back problems were gone almost immediately and now I have cute perky b00bs to boot.

 As a side note: I  had a c-section at 35 weeks due to pre-e. My wonderful OB who proclaimed (she likes to cut) did a great job putting me back together so I guess I technically got a little tummy tuck too. She did not do the "traditional" c-section cut because I had a scar from a previous surgery and as she put it "I don't want to give you a boat anchor." She replaced my scar and gave me a cute belly button (I didn't really have one).
