Hello! I'm 20 years old and have experienced a lot of weight fluctuations in my life. I grew up very overweight and at 14 hit a max of 260 lbs. I decided to lose weight and through exercise and dieting, I lost 110 lbs in under a year, hitting 150. I then was stable for two years but because of severe mental health and personal life complications, I gained 50 lbs after those two years and hit 200-210. I took about a year to hit about the 160s range, and over the course of another year, due to new life adjustments (college), I gained 20 lbs gradually.
I finally lost all the weight and am doing a lot better now but it's left a toll on my body. My arms sag and my breasts lack volume, and my abdomen protrudes. It's frustrating because I am very active and healthy, and have a very small frame so it feels very dysmorphic. I've wanted to get surgery for a while, specifically: an extended tummy tuck/body lift, arm lift, potential liposuction, and a breast lift. I am on the fence about implants (if anyone wants to tell me their experience with implants or fat transfer!!). I also wanted to know of anyone's experience with this surgeries, especially getting several at once. I wanted a better idea of the process and pros/cons.
Because I'm a student, I can't afford surgery in the States and am looking for safe, dependable, and affordable surgeons in foreign countries, especially Mexico because of its closeness. I really would like advice from more knowledgeable people who have experienced this or know more about it. It would do wonders for my confidence and I just want to know what it's like to feel my age in terms of appearance and confidence.
Thank you for reading!! ❤️❤️ Please be kind.
