“3 Days Post Op - Walnut Creek, CA”

Surgery took 3 hours. First night home - fuzzy. I only had a tummy tuck. At the last minute, I asked my ps to do the internal stitches loose because I'm 60 and don't have 50 years to enjoy the tight tummy. We decided right before surgery that he wouldn't put in the cross-stitches - up the breast-bone. Here are pictures 3 days PO.7 days post op - feeling pretty good. I notice when i do more... more

“Part Two: 13 weeks +/- PO!”

Continued from Part One Updated on 9 Oct 2012: So sorry I actually went one day without updating yesterday. I must be losing my touch... I had my follow up appointment with my surgeon Dr Wotowic at 9:30 am yesterday. I was SO excited to finally see the incision! His nurse peeled off the tape, and I was actually surprised to see that it is NOT a whole line of stitches across me (like... more

“Tummy Tuck For 36 Year Old Mother of...”

I am a 36 year old mother of 2 children, 11 and 6 year olds. I blame what my 6 year old calls"the blob" on the fact that I worked in SF during my first pregnancy and there was a deli and taqueria right across the street. Too many salami sandwhiches and carnitas burritos accompanied with an almost 10 pounder boy and c-section gave me what one doctor called during a routine physical a few years... more

“Part One: Day 13 Post Op: Stitches out!”

I am 38 years old and the mother of three perfect children ages 8, 5, and 3 (my oldest is a girl.) My husband and I have been married almost 12 years. He is completely supportive of this procedure, because as he puts it, "I am sad every time we have to get dressed up and you feel so bad about yourself." Other than that, he has never said anything. This procedure is completely self-initiated... more

“Tummy Tuck & Lipo to Flank&bra-line-...”

For years I've wanted a Tummy Tuck. In 2002, I made the mistake of having liposuction to the tummy and flank area because I wasn't educated enough and, the PS wasn't skilled enough to tell me that I was a candidate for tummy tuck instead. 10 years foward and I'll be having my TT surgery August 7th, 2012. I'm a proud mother of 3 daughters - giving birth to two and one being my daughter through... more

“New Pics Posted 3 weeks post op”

I am a happily married mother of 2. My son is 5 and my daughter is 3. I had them 19 months apart with back to back c-sections. I am a curvy italian woman and have always been thick in the thighs and butt.

“TT Post-Op Journey ...”

Years ago, my emergency section left me with bad scarring and very weakened abdomen muscles. As I approached my 50's, I started to consider corrective/cosmetic surgery for this. During my initial consultation 2 years ago, my doctor suggested a tummy tuck but, clearly, I was not ready emotionally then. Now, I am one week away from my pre-op and two weeks away from surgery. My feelings are... more

“Amazed with my Results - Stockton, CA”

Surgery was 3/13/12 with Dr. Stephen Williams of Tri-Valley Plastic Surgery. Words can't explain how happy I am. This doctor is as good as they come. I choose Dr. Williams initially for my consultation based on his education but I paid and booked my surgery because his apparent caring for his profession and patients. FREE consultation and he treated me like I already cut him a check. Dr.... more

“My Greatest Anti-Aging”

Dr. Delgado understands and respects the courage it takes for a patient to come to him about changing something as personal as your body. He always made me feel at ease by the way he listened to my goals, understood how to incorporate them into my lifestyle, took the time to explain procedures and even made me do some of my own research (implants) so that I felt empowered. Dr. Delgado was with... more

“11 Days Post Op and Back to Work! -...”

I had lipo of my flanks, and upper torso, tummy tuck and muscle tightening. I'm glad it's over and now in the healing stages. Got to tell you, the pain was not bad at all, I didn't even take the pain pills or muscle relaxers after 24 hours, took Tylenol occasionally, but really for my headache. I got my drains out yesterday, those were annoying, and the binder is annoying,... more

Hi ladies! So I'm a 43 yr old mom of two, a 21 yr old son & 8 yr old son. I guess you can say I was in shape size 9/10 most of my life.

I am a 27 year old mother of four, ages 12,7,4 and 3. The pregnancy took a toll on my body, ruined just about everything.

“Tummy Tuck - 1 Week Post Op -...”

I am one week post op on my tummy tuck. I feel great. My PS did not do drainage tubes and opted for 'quilt stitching'. Anyone out there who had the same technique? I'd love to hear your story (pros/cons). I was upright within 2-3 days. Not eating so much as I did not have my first bm until day 4. Thanksgiving was day 6, and I can tell in the pictures that my... more

“Tummy Tuck... the Good and Bad -...”

I am 26 and have 4 kids. I've always had the loose skin since after my first born but it just got worse after my 4th kid. Done exercising and dieting and none seems to work. One day I decided I want a tummy tuck. Went to a few consultations and decided to schedule for a tt right away. Had the tt done on august 9 2010. The ps was absolutely honest and great. He made me feel comfortable.... more

“3 Months Post-op I Can Finally Say...”

I was always a healthy weight but after having a baby at 35 I just couldn't get my flat stomach back, so at 40 decided to undergo TT.Now three months later I'm having no regrets, although the recovery has been a long road. I don't know if there's a proper medical term to describe it, but essentially a portion of the flap (about an inch in diameter) right above the incision failed to close... more

“Internal Stitches in Tummy Tuck”

It was great! Procedure was good...just wondering about the internal stitches after so many years later...I did it to take some skin off after weight loss, and to tighten the muscle.I had a tummy tuck in 2002. My internal stitches still show up in xrays...my question is, can the stitches pop open after so long and cause distention in my upper abdomen? more
