  1. You look fantastic ... Wow !!!!!

    Please tell us who ' date=' where and how much? was your Tummy Tuck. He gave u a beautiful belly button !!! Omg that's the most important besides the scar line ... Amazing[/quote']

    Thank you!!! my stomach was so awful before...you would not believe how awful! My scar line is so low and so thin and I believe that it will be unnoticeable in no time! My doc is in Missouri.


  2. Going in 2moro for my 3 week post op Tummy Tuck. I feel really good. Swelling is going down well. Although recovery was very tough for me the first 5 days it was well worth it. It feels amazing. I would recommend it to everyone with lose skin in the tummy.

    I'm 41 years old and every time my shirt would ride up I would be quick to pull it down. It feels amazing that I don't have to worry about that anymore. It's been over 20 years since I've had that feeling.


  3. I am booked with a plastic surgeon locally here but i am having second (and third' date=' and fourth) thoughts.

    It is a day surgery and they send you home - good luck! All follow ups I have to be driven back.

    Since it is day surgery, they will only do a little at a time - I will need 3 surgeries!!! That will take me years because I need the time off for each recovery.

    I am looking into a well known out of country option that uses a different anesthesia so you can stay "under" longer and get more done at once. It is alot less money, but money aside, it seems like a better situation. They keep you in the surgical facility for 2-3 days and then you stay in a local hotel another 12 days and are visited daily by both a nurse AND the surgeon. to me, that sounds like better after care then my usa doc has planned.

    This is a hard and scary decision but the out of country doc has great before and after photos and a ton of satisfied patients.

    I am still thinking....

    Back to the OP- would you be brave enough to share your pre-plastics photos? I suspect they weren't as scary as my current pics look like since I lost 150 (well 170 from my highest weight). I basically have skin for two people...lol[/quote']

    All 3 of my surgeries were done at same time. Tummy Tuck , breast lift , and lypo in 5 areas.
