Tummy Tuck Scar Pictures



Recommended Posts

Hopefully people can post pictures of their Tummy Tuck scars and overall results of the tummy tuck. This will be very helpful for those who are looking into getting a tummy tuck. It will give us an idea of what to expect months or years after surgery. The name and location of the doctor would also be wonderful to help us in making the decision. Thanks!

I don't really have pics of my scars, guess I could take some.

But, here are my before and after pics (3 months out).

I was very happy with the results and my doctor was excellent.

I plan to use him again for a thigh lift once all my weight has been lost.

WestCoastFatGuy & Kellie74,

Thank you guys so much! I needed to hear that. Most people don't say a word and in my head that makes me think that there isn't a difference. I'm self-conscious as it is, you all have made me feel 10 times better about myself- Thanks so much!

Anyone else have pics to share???

I always love seeing the results of others, too. I've become a plastic surgery TV show addict!

Thanks HarleyNana,

I was afraid to post the pics, but now am glad I did.

But, I don't want to "take over" this thread.

Anyone else brave enough to share???

Julie,

I notice you are having thigh lift too. What kind? Inner or outer? That's what I want done next. I was originally supposed to have it done with my TT, but they weren't able to do it all at once.

Hi there. I am having an inner thigh lift with out Lipo. I don't have too much hanging skin so he isn't having to make the incision down the entire thigh to the knee. Instead he is doing the lipo and bring the skin up and suturing it up into my upper thigh. He has to cut me 1/2 way around my thigh to do it that way. JulieNYC has her thighs lifted and had the incision down the inner thigh. He said that it doesn't look too bad 6 months out. Julie

Wow, please keep me posted on your progress. Sounds like a nice way to have it done, vs the large scar down the thigh.

I'm very interested in your outcome. Good luck and congratulations!

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      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!!
