Hi!! I'm going to mexico march 28th. For a tummy tuck lipo and butt augmentation. But I'm terrified of getting blood clots!!!! Did anybody ever go thru this? I'm just so nervous/scared ;(

.....

Be sure to walk as soon as u can for sure! They should put compression socks on you that blow up and squeeze your legs too. You aren't gonna wanna walk and you may be bent over for awhile but it's super important. Good luck!

Thank u!' I sure will post pictures!! And I'll share my experience . I got sleeved in Mexico and the doctors were wonderful hopefully I'll have the same experience this time around.

I'm having a fleur de lys TT later this year.. I'm scared of clots and necrosis, but I'd rather risk it than have my belly slap my legs cycling for another 40 yrs. clothes don't sit right either.. Good luck. Xx

Thank u for the advice!!. Is it normal that I'm scared of blood clots? Were u ever afraid of that too?

I didn't because ive never had problems with blood clots but its something definitely to worry about it can happen to any of us. Just stay positive and try not to think about it.

I was concerned about the risk. I learned the warning signs and symptoms and that helped me. Also I have no history of clots. It's helpful to be in good cardiovascular health. Let the doctor know you're worried s/he will talk you through it.

Thank u for the advice!!! Idk if its too much what I'm getting done at once or is it normal? My ps says it's gonna be ok but I think I'm just very nervous. I'm getting tummy tuck lipo and some of the fat is gonna be inserted into my buttocks. So I'm gonna have a flat tummy and a big booty!!!! Lol im scared but excited at the same time

That's a pretty routine amount of work at one time. From what I've read, that's not at all too much.

Have you been on Realself.com? You can post concerns there for plastic surgeons to comment on. You also can review hundreds of procedures. Pretty complete site. Similar to bariatric pal.

It's totally normal to have fears and nerves before surgery. I think you can let go of the anxiety and allow yourself to be excited

Some of those Brazilian butt lifts are crazy!!! Is that what you're getting? Doesn't sound like it. I would be curious to know how does someone get comfortable after a BBL and TT? I bet they don't combine those two cause you can't sit on your butt...rambling. I'll go ramble somewhere else.
