April 8, 201313 yr Has anyone looked into having a Corset Trunkplasty? It looks like it would cover a lot more then just a regular tummy tuck. Anyone have any idea on pricing here in the states or Mexico.
April 8, 201313 yr Unfortunately... I need a face lift from the toes up, so... I haven't even looked Thanks for the giggle!
April 8, 201313 yr I want someone to install one of those handle things on the top of my head so I can just turn it every so often & pull everything up a little tighter! :-/
April 9, 201313 yr Lol.. ok I have never heard of this trunk corset deal and I am quite immersed in the plastics world right now.
April 9, 201313 yr I have heard of it, not by that name. What I have found doing my research is that most tummy tucks include the "corset" procedure, at least the dr's in Mexico do. Are you a member of "sassy sleevers" on FB? We've been discussing it on there.
April 14, 201313 yr I'm scheduled to have a corset trunkplasty on May 28th. Basically it cuts across under both breasts, straight down center of belly, around belly button, & straight across hip to hip. It's like a big capital I. It gets all the skin & excess fat from breasts to hips. Then he pulls in, around, up & down & sews it all up.

What is recovery time like?

Including facility cost, anesthesia & surgeon fees, $8600. The recovery is significant. He said it will be 1-2 weeks before I feel like leaving the house & 6-8 weeks before I can go back to the gym. I've taken "before" pictures & I plan to post those & the after pictures for y'all.
April 21, 201313 yr I've been very interested in this procedure. Please share your outcome with us. There does not seem to be a lot of doctors doing this procedure but I am hopeful that will change by the time I'm ready for the next step. A Doctor at Geisinger pioneered this procedure. Here is some information for Geisinger: http://www.redefineyourself.com/corset_trunk/250_lb_loss.html Also another article: http://www.corsettrunkplasty.com/images/PSP-November-2012.pdf

I think we have to help each other get thru this. It's a tough process & takes a lot of work & heart.
