Ve lost 114lbs and desided got the the mommy make over done (breast implants and tummy tuck with ab repair) im doing well but im hating these binders i feel like im being squeezed to death. How long does someone have to wear these? Anyone else had this done?

No, but just wanted to congratulate you on your weightloss and makeover! Hurrah! Karen

Thanks

I need a grandmother makeover....lol. I went to my dr yesterday and we discussed some medical assistance tightening up the tummy, thighs and giving the girls a lift.... My dr works with a local plastic surgeon and he gave me his card.... I haven't explored this at all other than online so I may go for a consult. It's a big step and seems superficial to me when I analyze it. But my dr said thats bs... Yep he really used that word. Lol. He said I have worked hard to get to where I am and he said there is nothing wrong with considering a little nip and tuck... So I may go and check it out...

Good luck to you!

You still cant stand straight? I could stand straight about two days post op. I'm happy with my results I'm still waiting for the implants to settle. Did you have breast reduction? I had mine in larged

Binders for about 6 weeks, and trust me they help. My doc said it was ok to take an hour or so break from them once in a while. Try Spanx/Assets instead, I found I tolerated them better, much smoother surface!

Well I'm only 4 weeks today so two more to go. I hate them but I know its for the best. When did you have your tummy tuck?

I had implants 5 years ago after my baby it dit not look good you are so lucky dit the insicioms heal well myn stil went well but turned a bitt red still cant get up straight

My insicions look good not to red at all. Where are you from?

I had a breast reduction and tummy tuck May 18th. I am soooo pleased with my results! AMAZING!! Couldn't be happier! My doc wasn't big on binders, just two weeks for me.

Your so lucky I have to wear binders for 6 weeks

could you that have had the skin reduction surgery.......Did you wait till you reached your goal and stayed for awhile? Some people say they did it at about 75% done. Also did insurance cover any of it? ll this saggy skin is horrible. Does any exercise help?
