I have lost over 180 pds after having DS weight loss surgery. I had a consultation the Dr recommended that I do a FDL tummy tuck. I ideally want the Mommy Makeover because I want be able to combine procedures. If I go against the Dr recommendations essentially what would my results look like? Would love to hear your recommendations based on my pics. He also said I would not be good candidate for BBL, he thinks my next procedure after the FDL needs to be a lower body lift. Is this on track?
I have had 4 Children. I have STRUGGLED despite GLPs, etc to lose weight but my body loves to stay around 200lbs. I have finally hit 185-189 and the lower part of my stomach is so embarrassing. I want to try and lose a few more lbs before surgery but I would love to get it done in November either way. What are your thoughts? I feel like I would love my stomach and size if it was flatter
Hello I had a tummy tuck and I am seeing a fullnes or roundness in my upper belly and in my mons / groin area looks puffy and fully is it normal to look like this ? Do I need Lipo its been 8 months Since my tummy tuck and 4 months since my scar revision
I am 3 weeks post tummy tuck and medial thigh lift. When I lay down for more than 5 minutes (or sleep), my body becomes incredibly stiff--almost like a cast. I feel better when I walk around. I asked my surgeon and he doesn't seem to know what the problem is. I am already getting a professional lymphatic massage every other day. Is this normal? Should I be concerned?
This is the 4th night in a row Ive had sharp unbearable pains. I had my fleur de lis abdominoplasty 4 months ago and havent had too much of a problem other than swelling above my navel. Recently the pains first felt like contracting muscles but now I can identify them as sharp, striking, and prickling pain, along with an itch on the inside. Please help
I had a successful Tummy Tuck, Muscle Plication and Liposuction (21days post op). I'm very satisfied with the procedure but my Faja digs into my skin. I make sure it's not too lose or too tight. I use the lipo foams but I'm still in a lot of pain from the Faja. I'm not even in pain from the surgery. While wearing the Faja when I stand from sitting or laying it's like the Faja creates a suction on my skin where the muscles were repaired. Now, this hurts more than the surgery. Suggestions :-(
Im a month post op TT and i feel as if my belly button keeps shrinking. Im scared its going to close. A marble wont fit in there to do the marble trick. My next post op appointment isnt until the 31st. Is there hope for it to look normal?!
So I had tummy tuck with repair, I am post opp 10 days bd I can move around pretty good since day 1. But I cant stand or walk long because of the strain on my back and not being able to stand up. I try and get up and move through out the day, but I notice once I sit or wake up either I feel like a cement brick lol or everything re tightens and its a pull to even stand where I know I can.. Any suggestions? Thoughts? Can I massage or do stretches to help?
17 years ago I had a tummy tuck. A week ago I was showering and I always wash the inside of my belly button. Two days later, I noticed my belly button is seeping a yellowish green fluid. Not much but it's gross. I gently clean and cover it to protect my clothing but it's been a week now. Is there anything else that I can do without having to go see a specialist?
