Hi!! I been doing great, 2 months now from my TT/BA never felt better, very happy with the results! still a little bit sore from muscle repair, but it doesnt bother me at all. I can send u more recent pictures if you want me to. Are you having your surgery in FL?
I just had my drains out today which is 9 days post op tummy tuck "YAY", i also had an augment with 425cc mentor high profile silicone gel. They are high as well, but my surgeon said that in 2 months she will do a lift with local as she didn't want me sleep anylonger that 4 hours with the tt and augment, although went they naturally drop i may not have to. Tummy tuck is great very good surgeon, not even quite hip bone to hip bone and its right in my pubic line. I would certainly recommend this ps to anyone she did it all for 8,294.
hadd tt and ba on 11-23-09 still some up and downs and swelling

I had a TT on 04/16 and I already see the results, still pretty swollen on the love handle area, but I am loving my new stomach, and I am very satisfied with my BB.

The only thing that worries me a little is my breast, they were saggy and I kinda feel like I should had a lift, and augmentation, but my PS convince me of getting 425cc that will fix the problem without the scar of the lift, I understand its only been a week from the surgery, but I feel like they are HUGE!! and deformed they are very high and my nipple is too low, and I can feel skin hanging from the bottom of the breast. Am I getting too worry for nothing, and they will lower up and look better in a couple of weeks?

AMG, You look great and your breasts look perfect to me! I also had my FTT with lipo to the flanks, and a BA on 4/16! I felt like my breasts were huge, but 12 days into it I see them getting a little smaller as the swelling goes down. I'm going to put a post on here with some before and afters in the next day or so. I tried on a bikini this morning...now I know EXACTLY why I did this!! I look forward to keeping up with you on your progress. Take care.
Thanks for the reply! I feel a little better each day, looking forward for the swelling to go away and see my real new me! I hope u are doing better. Do you still have your drains? I still have mine and they are driving me crazy, but I know they are a necessary pain.
I had my drain out on day 8 post op..what freedom! I've noticed every doctor has a different thought on the drains. I was draining about 40cc in a 24 hour period and he felt that was a small amount and took the drain out. The drains really make it hard to really see the new you, I can only imagine how frustrated it is to still have them in. When will you be getting them out? I have my 2 week post op on Friday, I'm really feeling like my old self...lots of energy, no pain. I still have quite a bit of swelling in the abdomen and flanks but that is getting better.

I had the drains out yesterday!!! YEYYY u are right, what a huge difference! I started using the garment today, and oh boy that was hard, I dont think i will be able to wear it 24/7, i had to buy one at sears today cause the one the PO gave me was too big (which is good :) lol, I went to the mall today with my 3 yr old all by myself and that was a huge challenge! but I am healing very well, slowly feeling like my old self also. :) Looking forward to start working out, cause I have the worst craving, havent gain weight yet, but i know is coming soon. Thanks for the reply!! Email if u want to chat :)

That's great!! You will feel worlds better as each day passes. By 2 weeks I really felt like myself again. Not exercising is going to be the hardest thing! My doc said I can start walking for exercise next week. I can use some light hand weights for my arms now. But I cannot kickbox or do pilates until 8 weeks after surgery. I've actually lost some weight now that the swelling is going down. I did not step on the scale until a few days ago. My appetite is back so I have to be very careful, too!
Was the 12,500 for all your procedures how was your scar did you have strech marks before I am thinking of flying across the country to use this surgeon
Yes, it cover BA/ muscle repair and TT he did lipo but didnt charged me cause I didnt have a lot of fat to remove, my scar is hip to hip, like a normal TT scar, is healing very well, he also did a great job on the belly button, which was my biggest fear, cause lots of pics i see, the BB are horrible. I am very happy with his job. Would do it again in a heart beat, I went to different consults with different PS and he had the highest prices, but the feeling of being in good hands is priceless! Good Luck.
