I had surgery on 2/28/2011. I don't have any regrets about having the surgery. I haven't experienced a whole lot of pain, lots of swelling though. My stomach had a lot of loose skin and the muscle was very laxed. It has only been 2 weeks, I still have swelling mainly in the evening and at night. But I am pleased with the results so far. I can't wait until I see the final results.
I am feeling a lot better. This is week#3 for me I...

Wow they did a really good job. Thanks for posting your Tummy Tuck information. I'm calling to make an appointment Monday! Good Luck
Congratulations! Your swelling will last for a while but be assured it will end.
The end of the day is the absolute worst and all you can do is put your feet up and rest. You will notice improvement month after month for about the first year. So enjoy the changes and love your new body:)
Oh yes..it is all normal. Now that is a normal I could have done without. Mine would ache and swell something terrible. Hot compresses help on the area. I looked like I had a man package for about three months. It got better but drove me nuts.
I walked like a total old lady for the first two - three weeks. It got better and better each day but did take forever...darn it! I noticed that from like weeks 3-5 my back would hurt more by the end of the day. It felt really sore and stressed.
i could walk straight after 1st week but do notice back pain a lot lately
we are going on vacation in 3 weeks and i currently have a small area that remains open on the center of my stomach, is this normal?
The belly button takes a while to heal so hang on.
My back was pretty sore for the first month and when I got tired and over did it I payed the price. Try some massage, heat and ice and that will give you some relief.
Keep an eye on the open area closely and if something feels or looks odd have your doctor check it right away. Just keep it clean and dry for now.
Now when you go on vacation take it easy and don't over do it.
i plan to do zip lining and lots of swimming -
the dr indicated he will put some type of plastic coating on the open area so it won't be exposed to bacteria
- - is is normal for your skin to break open when you put tape on it over the gauze? i got a rash and it started bleeding very easily
My skin is very hyper sensitive to anything so any tape, odd lotions etc make me break out like crazy.
Just try to keep it clean and dry and it will close up.
I'm glad everything seems to be healing up nicely. We'd love to see your before and after pics if you feel comfortable sharing them. Why did you decide to seek a tummy tuck? Pregnancy, weight loss, or just an aging tummy?
