I had two Tummy Tuck's performed by two different plastic surgeons, breast implants and liposuction.
First Surgeon:
Breast implants turned out ok and liposuction with great results.
The first Tummy Tuck (1st plastic surgeon) turned out perfect, my tommy was very tight and I had a 8 pack, the scar on my stomach was very thin maybe 1-2 mm wide and across the lower abdomen from inner hip to inner hip, scar was almost invisible and looked great.

Then over 3 years I gained weight and then lost most of it. My Tummy was still very tight and i still had my 8 pack but when I bent over and only when I bent over I had "some loose skin". My thighs had loosened.

I consulted a different plastic surgeon (2nd plastic surgeon) who was located closer to where I lived. I had my breast implants replaced and I also got liposuction done by this 2nd plastc surgeon. I was not happy with results so this 2nd "Plastc Surgeon" told me he could fix it.
We agreed he this "2nd plastic surgeon would replace Breast Implants. He told me he could do a Tummy Tuck (for which I also paid for) to remove the little bit of loose skin (loose skin I had but only when I bent over), and also tighten my thighs with a very small incision on my inner thighs, that one was supposed to not be able to see.
So I had another surgery by this "2nd Plastic Surgeon".
My "BREAST IMLANTS" were replaced and ended up satisfactory.
Well lets start by saying "Frankenstein Scars".
The "TUMMY TUCK" is disgusting, my tummy has no more 8 pack and I always look like I am very bloated the scar is very wide almost 1/2 inch and reaches about 10 inches past my outer hips, I still use Maderma but unsuccessfully.
The so called "TIGHTENING OF THIGTS", I ended up with a huge, wide and long scar across my inner thighs front to back and about 3 inches below the panty line, hideous.
I am very upset, sad, and angry every day and I mean every day for example when I look in the mirror after a shower, I used to have hour glass curves but now my body is pear shaped and very misshaped. Every day when I go to bed and try going to sleep but instead I think of the hideous results of my thighs and tummy which is loose and looks like a pot belly especially when I lay on my side.

I go on vacation numberous times every year also to the river, beach or pool. I used to be able to wear a bikini looking good no problem, but now I have to wear shorts when I get in the pool, river or beach. Can you imagine going to the pool at a resort and having to wear shorts in the pool because of your hideous scars on your thighs and across your stomach, getting rude comments because of my nasty scars? Well it is not nice and ruins your vacation and or so called having fun. It made me sad, self-conscious, angry and upset, it still does every single day.
I guess I now have to learn to live with it for my whole life.
