You Asked for It! Plastic Surgery Pictures



Recommended Posts

I have included several before and after shots of plastic surgery through the following links. They have not been edited so if you don't want to see them, don't click! They are nude and scarred and may be alot to take but for those who will make the transforamtion, you deserve to see the results and I know I would want to know.

These shots are only 2 weeks post op and I am a bit of a bruiser and very fair skinned. I am happy with where I am and know that once the sweeling goes down, I will be even happier. Well, here it goes!

Here are few links to the Tummy Tuck itself. These were taken by the nurse during the proceedure.

The first of me cut hip to hip and you can see my belly button in the middle.

This is the same shot without my belly button:

Here is the flap of skin that was removed from my belly. It weighed in at just over 7 lbs:

Gross? Maybe but I thought it was way cool! :biggrin1:

I agree, please keep this updated! I really appreciate your cahones in posting these rather personal pics for us. It is exactly what I was wondering about.

Now I get the Spydr :( Kewl!!

And goodonya!! The side shot is very dramatic and wow! You are going to look even more fabulous than you did, and than you do now, after the swelling and bruising goes down.

Ouch, ouch, ouch! I hurt just looking at those. How bad was the pain? Have you lost sensation in your breasts? I'm in desperate need of a lift, but I worry so much about losing sensation. Thanks so much for posting these.

You know, at first, the pain was less than the band. I have a really good doctor and his office understood I was a wuss and gave me all the meds I could need. The pain is more now that the nevers have begun to heal.

They did move the nipple but did not cut them completely so I still have full sensation in both nipples at this point. It may change but the doc seems happy with his work. The sensation is also coming back in my belly and that is where the pain comes in.

It felt so good to take my first shower yesterday. I still miss taking a bath and soaking but all things in good time. I just now got to the point where I can sleep on my side. That feels good!

AGAIN... another KUDO for posting.......... you have balls! and I'm so glad you do, because it REALLY helped.

My good friend had the same thing done a few weeks ago, and I can only imagine if that is what she looked like....

I gotta tell you I look like your before pics, so it is really easy for me to visualize myself in your shoes.

I can't wait to see the result after the swelling goes down.

oh.. yeah.. and I love the tats!

You my friend are a brave soul! I thank you for sharing something normally considered very intimate. I've considered a Tummy Tuck more and more lately as I have become puzzled with what to do with the pound of flesh dangling over my girlie-girl! Personally, I'm a bit of a chicken but I draw strength from your photos. Please keep us updated.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
