These are essential fats your body can’t make on its own, so you have to get them from your diet.

You should thoroughly research your surgeons policy on revised procedures. There are many times that surgeons botch procedures, and you have to pay a ton of money to get corrective surgery. Look for a surgeon who will correct any problems for free for a certain amount of time after your surgery. Find out where the surgery will take place in advance. You can do some research about this location. Make sure your surgeon has selected a licensed, and accredited location. Check that his or her office has been inspected, and accredited.

There will be a physical exam of the breast and the doctor will ask you questions about your medical history just to ensure you are in good health for a breast augmentation surgery. Did you know that breast implants are NOT measured by cup size? That’s right! There’s no such thing as a D cup-sized implant. Implants are measured in cubic centimeters or “CC’s” for short. This helps customize the size of each breast implant independently in case the breasts are not perfectly symetrical.
While the surgery only took three hours, the weeks following the procedure were very painful. I couldn’t get out of bed by myself as I was so sore. Amazingly, within a few weeks of the operation I lost another 9kg by committing to healthy eating habits. Then, two months after my surgery I went back for a tummy tuck to remove the loose skin and lost another 4kg. Before the operation, I hated looking in the mirror, but now, as I saw my body begin to shrink before my eyes, I loved admiring myself in the mirror. With diet and exercise I continued to get smaller and I started to feel a lot better. Before I knew it, I was down to 70kg and fitting into a US size 10 dress. Waking up from surgery I’d never felt happier in my whole life.
If clean body care and skin health was a person it would be this exfoliant. After a good scrub, you move to the body wash. The body wash is a staple in my body care routine and it has lasted me so long! If you use scrub gloves, which in my opinion also lather better, you don’t have to use a lot. It is early January and I’m still trying to use the last of my first body wash. Body care should be a time where you romance yourself; you deserve a good shower routine and or bath experience. All of the products come with a fragrance free option, but similar to the exfoliant, it’s so nice to have your shower steam up with the fresh smell of eucalyptus. It’s calming, it’s soothing, makes being at home not so bad.
