Hello realself readers. Just like you, I've had my fair share of spending hours on this site. Now it's my time to give back. Yesterday I had a breast augmentation and a tummy tuck. I have had a mini tuck with dr.wali more than 2 years ago but it wasn't to remove my scars and stretch marks, it was because my c-section scar was very high and I wanted it removed. I was very pleased with my results, my scar came out very low, i healed very well and dr.wali always followed up with me But now I changed my mind and just wanted a whole new tummy since I decided to get a breast augmentation anyways. Here's bit about me, My daughter is 3 years old, I am 5'5 about 120 lbs, before breast augmentation I was wearing a 34A and sometimes when I wear those super padded bras in a 34B. I will post pics soon.

Thank you so much for starting your story on RealSelf! How are you feeling right now? I've heard the first three days are definitely the toughest.

Here's a post from Blonde in Bluffton about her early days post-op.

Please keep us updated as you continue to heal. I hope you LOVE your results when all is said and done.

Read your story, how are you doing? Healing good?

I would say about 70% healed. I'm back at the gym. My scars look good. I feel great. Thanks for asking :)

Do you have any picture of the scar?

I'm about the same height and weight as you and looking to do the same tummy tuck and breast. Looking for a doctor who is very skilled with the tummy tuck. So far his work looks good but don't see many of the scars. That's what I'm most worried about.

Here is a photo of me 1 month and 3 months post-op. I still feel a bit tight and sore. Specially when I stay seated for a long period of time. I've been eating very healthy and doing cardio everyday. Everything went well with my surgery because I listened to all of dr.wali's instructions. My advice for all of you that just had a TT, be patient! You've waited years to get a flat tummy don't ruin it by going crazy at the gym. Everyone heals differently just because you read a lot of people starting to work out 6 weeks after a TT doesn't mean it's okay for you to do it too. Listen to your body. You'll feel pain on your lower back from being hunched all the time, when your surgeon says its okay to do so, stretch out your lower back or get massages. It helps out alot. I've been doing Yoga and it feels great. My scar looks good, fully healed. it itches sometimes specially when I wear jeans coz the band rubs against it, I massage it with cream but never scratch it. I have tons of photos from my TT journey but I'm going backwards since my laptop is acting up and all my photos are in it. I'll post more pics as soon as I get it fixed but here's what I have for now.

Breast Augmentation

GlcGlc
Here are photos before and after my BA. I went from 34A to 34C but 34D in some Victoria secret bras. I got 350cc moderate plus silicone implants which I think is perfect because I wanted the natural look. I just wanted to fit in a dress or top without being totally flat. Now I can wear strapless tops w/o a bra and still look full up top. Since I had a TT with my BA, it seemed like I really didn't feel the pain coz I was more worried about my TT. My scar looks great, it was done thru my nipple so it's barely visible. I absolutely love my new breasts. Thanks to Dr. Wali!
