Tummy Tuck: Forum

I'm IN a wedding in April......

By KrissyinPA on 10 Feb 2013

I have a question.... I am having a full TT with lipo of flanks on 2/27/13 so I will be exactly 8 weeks and 3 days post op by April 27th (my cousin is getting married) I am in the bridal party.  What are some of your opinions on how I'll feel by then?? I mean, swelling... pain.. I'll be in a dress (obviously) I was already fitted for the dress back in November (pre Tummy tuck obviously)  The dress is actually a lace up the back so I will be able to loosen or tighten it to accommodate the TT... so that's a plus... no worrying about a zip up back that won't zip up or is too big!   I know everyone heals at different paces and the pain is different for each of us, however if I get a few of your experiences to kinda compare.. I may get a bit of an idea on what to expect.  Thanks so much!

You will be feeling much better by 8 weeks post op.  But you may still have some swelling.
