had surgery on june 8th with dr jacobs in nyc..  i still feel a little tender in the chest and still have a little swelling.  i still have another 5 to 10 pounds to lose so i am confident the results will get even better.

was pretty expensive..if i remember right it was like 7k total (but worth every penny).  thnx guys!

Was this just lipo or did u have tissue removed as well? Mine kinda look like that and my doctor said i only need lipo ...

Really nice… congratulations...

How long until you were back on your feet?  Would you have been able to get the surgery done if you were in the middle of school?

hey guys..

bubble..my ps told me he performed both lipo and excission without having to cut the aerola (he said he was able to get the gland out with an instrument he developed)  i dont know if this is the case as it has been debated on this forum if this is even possible....although dr jacobs is quite possibly the best ps in the east, so it may be possible..who knows??  in my opinion there was some gland in there however i dont think it was that much.  for some reason my body seemed to deposit fat in my chest..i went from 220 to 170 and still couldnt get rid of it, so i would say most of it was fat.

ericeso...i work m-f on a trading floor surrounded shoulder to shoulder with guys constantly hitting me and shoving...i had the surgery done on thursday morning and was back at work  on monday..i could have been back on sunday.  it is definitely possible to have it on a friday and be back at school monday..the only thing people would notice is your improved self-confidence!!  i wish i didnt wait this long.

good luck to you guys..and dont hesitate to ask anything else!

jersey, great results bro, i'm thinking about getting surgery by dr jacobs as well.. what type of anesthesia did they use? i heard they use "twilight sedation" which is one of the reason i'm going to him, i really don't want a tube down my throat.. if they did, how was the overall experience and discomfort level ? i'm thinking of renting a hotel near by and go through the whole ordeal by myself, do you think that would be possible ? thanks

You revived an old thread to get an answer on the Jacob's experience.

He used the twilight on me, no tube.  Worked great. I am two weeks post op.

Check with his office staff on the hotel and doing it alone thing.  They made me fill out a form about my escort.  Had to give my wife's name, cell number, etc......

I am pretty sure you can't just walk out alone.

That being said, I believe you can arrange to do it alone, but you will have to work the details out with them.

Don't hesitate to call their office about this, even before your consult, they are very helpful.
