Plastic Surgery Decision - Wednesday, July 04, 2007 8:20 PM
Hello all, I am a 32 year old female with 2 beautiful children. I have alot of stretch marks on my stomach, some above the navel. I also have them on my arms and thighs. This has bothered me so much but lately more than every. I have always dreamed of having surgery but the cost has always been a big factor. I am extremely self conscious about the way my body look and I just wish that there was a better way. I have been this way most of my adult life (18) and I am just so tired of looking this way. It brings down your self esteem and makes you feel ugly. I am in the military and well my time is somewhat limited. I know that sometimes I am much to hard on myself, but no matter how much I exercise the belly fat won't go away. I am stationed in Mississippi currently and was wondering if anyone could make a recommendation of a good doctor. I went and had a consult done before but the guy was going so fast i could not make heads or tails of what was going on. I want to get my arms, stomach and breast done. And later get my thighs too. I know, total body make over. I just want to be happy with the results and not look like a piece of chopped meat! The doctor say I would have scares right down the front of my breast. I was leaning towards not getting implant just getting a brest lift are there other options. Don't want it to be obvious. I know this is alot but I want to feel confident about the decision i am going to make. My hubby does really say alot about it. I am not doing this for anyone except for me. PLEASE HELP!!!

Here is a link that will help you find a physician. I always suggest having consultations done by at least two different doctors. After all, you will be the paying costumer

The reason the previous doctor was saying that there would be scars on the front of your breasts, is because of the lift. Often this is refered to as the key hole incision. Some doctors do not use this method. Depending on your skin type, even if they made a key hole incision, the scars will fade with time. Good luck to you, let me know if you have any other questions.
