Just had TT, Breast lift w augmentation (never in my life did I think I would need that!) and arm lift three days ago! Feeling surprisingly well, aside from swell hell in my midsection. Even the drains aren't bothering me too much. Hoping for 2-3 of them to come out tomorrow and the fourth on Wednesday if all goes well.

Will take some after pix at some point in the near future, not quite yet though. Happy to answer any questions as things unfold!

Congratulations and 'soft' hugs sent. I bet you will feel amazing soon

Keep us posted on how things are going please..

Kate

Congrats!

Thanks! Hanging in there! Pain isn't bad, but the swelling is awful! Hoping to get at least 2 of my 4 drains out today!

Hi Jess9395. I've been dreading sagging arms so am very interested in hearing how your lift goes. Will there be scars? I once had a tummy tuck and that hurt a lot afterwards when it was so tight but it did help (until I gained back weight -- this was before WLS.) I bet yuo are going to look totally awesome! Can I ask how old you are? My skin usd to be pretty elastic but I'm now 65 and I just don't think it will tighten up on it own anymore. I see a jowl/neck lift in my future.

Hey Judy!

I am 45. I've lost 135lbs and for a while my loose skin was just awful... It did come back somewhat. I waited 6 months post goal to See how much would come back and it rebounded maybe 30% from its worst, but despite all the muscle I built underneath (I had 18% body fat going in to surgery) it wasn't gonna come all the way back.

Yes. I will have scars. No such thing as scarless plastic surgery yet. It's always a trade off. For me these scars (elbow to armpit under my arms, hipbone to hipbone in my bikini area and under my breasts/around the Areola and a line connecting like a lollipop) were worth it. I didn't go for the fleur de Lis TT so my skin won't be perfectly tight, but that vertical scar up my belly wasn't worth it. Ditto the thighs, not worth it.

I am doing what I can to help the scars heal best the can (Embrace therapy, silicone treatment, etc) but made the choice that the trade off was worth it! Better scars that shar-pei skin In my case. If you had a TT you have a good idea of how your scars resolve and can make an informed choice!
