Hi girls. I have been lurking for a few weeks now, and have learned so much from these reviews. I am so grateful to you for all the advice, thoughts, fears, joys, and tips you have given. I am certain I have learned more here than by researching or speaking to my doctor! I have many posts and lots to say, so this one will just be an introduction. I was an obese teenager, having a 44 inch waist... more

“Long Awaited Tummy Tuck -...”

I'm only 15 days post-surgery, and just had my second follow-up with my surgeon this morning. After this am, had my second and last drainage tube removed (yeah!) and that already has me feeling better. Much more sore and swollen than I ever anticipated, but with her reasuurance, that's very normal. I'm a pretty impatient person, so I would have hoped to see better results at this point, but I... more

I am 46 years old. I am active, run, yoga. I have a 27yr old andhave been living with these stretch marks for ever!

“Amazing. - Rochester, NY”

I am 8 days PO from a fleur-de-lis (or anchor, or T-incision) tummy tuck with muscle repair. When I say "amazing", I mean it. Everything about this surgery is amazing.

If you had asked me last night if I regretted having this surgery... more

“Countdown to TT (Tummy Tuck) on Sept...”

I have thought about a tt for years. I'm 57 and have had a flabby tummy for 30 years. I seriously considered doing it about 8 years ago, but didn't loose all the weight I wanted to. Now, I'm down to 140 from 185, and I'm going to do it. Have my doc, have the appt, and have paid - now I'm reading how painful it is and am a little nervous/scared! more

So I had thought I had found the greatest doctor. I felt extremely comfortable with him. I had my surgery. Everything went great. Had my 2 week post op appt still doing great. Then he tells me he is leaving the practice and moving to a different state. I felt ok with this.... Until week 4 came. I was soooo swollen and discovered I had a TON of new stretch marks.
