Hi Everyone
WORTH IT$8,505
It's been awhile, I think I'm six weeks now and doing well. Just a quick update for now.
IVe been back to work now 3 weeks and it's going well. I'm pretty swollen by the time I get home and then in the morning it looks so nice. Been busy with work and Christmas stuff mostly.
Well just wanted you all to know I'm still around and reading stories. I'll post new pics soon hopefully.
I'm very happy with my results so far.
Later ladies. Happy healing to all.

I am happy for u bcz ur satisfied with ur result but i am really scared from the pain and from the drains tooo muchhh and my surgery is after two weeks .pls dear how many kilos u loose after the surgery and how many size of paints u approximately lost.thxx so muchhhh

Don't be scared Laure541 you will be fine. You will have good pain medication that your doctor will give you and you will rest and do nothing for many days. I was on my prescribed pain meds for only 4-5 days then only took Advil or Tylenol for minor pain.
As far as weight loss I've lost only a few pounds and pant size it's hard to tell as I'm still swollen in my tummy but I can wear my pre-op jeans and they are loose even with swelling. Good luck to you and don't worry so much about the numbers and sizes. You will be beautiful no matter the numbers.

i love how clean, thin & straight your scar is! I noticed you don't have any hair growth in your hoo-ha. Are you able to shave it? Or did you have it waxed before surgery? My TT is in a few weeks and I've thought about getting waxed but this will be the first time and I'm really nervous about the pain...

Hi! You can shave or wax if you like. I used to wax all the time but then decided to have it lazered off a few years back so have very little growth now if any at all. Waxing pain is very brief, and might be worse than TT pain. Lol. Good luck with your surgery and happy healing.

Make it stop!
Omg!! I'm so itchy it's driving me nuts. Ps took the tape off so I have nothing on my incision so that's not it. Most of the itch is internal and at the ends of my incision. I'm sure it's just the healing process but....What can I do to relieve this insanity? Was considering an allergy pill. I'll take any advise dished out to me.
Thank you in advance.

Congratulations on taking the plunge. I'm 50 and 4.5 months post op - now I can say I'm soo glad I went ahead with this. I had crazy itching as well and started on antihistamines I bought over the counter, which worked a treat. Stayed on them for 2-3 weeks. My itching seemed to come from under the skin, not so much the skin itself, so I would recommend giving these a go. Happy to help in any other way. :)

Hi Machine and thanks for the info. My itching is starting to subside and I'm the same as you, seems it's all under the skin. I also started rubbing Aveno lotion on a few times and day and that helps too.
Must say you look great and I too am so glad I did it too. No regrets at all.
