Ok so sorry if tmi but does anybody else have an obese FUPA( fat upper pubic area) I mean my va jay jay might look like a chubby alien I dunno. Oh well it doesn't seem to bother my husband any I just wish I had an attractive vagina not some juhbba the hutt lookin lifeform down there lol. Does anyone know if the skin removal aka panni covers that pubic area too? I plan on making an appointment soon as I'm 3+yrs post op RNY with a baby in between so I'm ready to get rid of this extra skin! Also any tips to help get insurance to cover just a panni? I'm pretty sure mine won't cover arns, breasts or anything else but a panni(and hopefully FUPA is a good start) Thanks in advance!

I believe a lot of surgeons do a mons lift when they do a Tummy Tuck

I don't know about just a panni but if you get a lower body lift (where they do panni, butt lift, etc), most surgeons do include a mons lift.

That is part of a panniculectomy, removing the apron of skin plus it can be a requirement for insurance to cover. My ins. wanted pics that showed the pannis hanging below the pubic area.

And.....not tmi, most people have a pannis after losing a ton of weight

I had an Inverted T Tummy Tuck (fleur de lis) and this was part of that procedure 😊

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
