9 days (02/16/17) until Lower Body Lift - advise?

Hello wonderful community :)

I decided 2 weeks ago or so that I needed to stop screwing around and get all this skin taken care of - today I called to schedule a surgery day and they had Feb16th open so I took it.

I'm terrified...

Any advise?

Anything I should make sure I do or have beforehand?

Thanks so much in advance!!!

~Kitty

I'm in St. Louis, MO and my surgeon is Dr. Herluf Lund he works out of St. Louis Cosmetic Surgery in Chesterfield, MO. I'm not sure about the rules on posting links but if you Google 'Dr Lund St. Louis' he'll come right up. He is absolutely wonderful, bedside manner so amazing and very very funny just when you need him to be!

...so it's been 6 weeks and I'm really happy with my results. I'll post several comparative before/after pictures below. I have had a complication where I have an incision dehiscence (opened wound) that started out just as an irritation but Dr took out some deep sutures that were causing the problem so it's healing now.

You look fantastic! Crazy that we still have to worry about complications 6 weeks out, but glad you're finally on the mend!!


I just read this thread and want to say that you ladies look great! Good for you. ????
