Lipo After Tummy Tuck: Happy with decision to go with Azurin.
ORIGINAL POST
I had a full TT 2 years ago and did not get Lipo...
WORTH IT$6,500
I had a full TT 2 years ago and did not get Lipo at the time with Dr. White in Dallas. I was advised by my surgeon at the time that it wasn't a good idea because of blood flow and healing process would take longer. Although I think my TT was phenomenally done, I was not happy with my silhouette. Mostly because the shape of my body naked looked like I had muffin top.
I have been wearing a girdle since my surgery because my body shape shows through all of my clothes. The only way to fix it is to go ahead with Lipo.
I want so badly to pick the right surgeon. I am leaning heavily toward Dr. Azurin. I have an upcoming consultation this Monday Dec 3 and I will keep you updated. Anyone else had this problem? Any advice is much appreciated

Okay ladies.... I had my consult with Soto and it...
okay ladies.... I had my consult with Soto and it was okay. I met a lady in the waiting room who was extremely happy with her results from a TT, so that was a plus. Dr. Soto came in and seemed to rush through my consult. The staff was really friendly but I didn't feel that he was the doctor for me when I left. Nothing really bad to say, but I personally didn't feel that he was the one. Then drove down to Coral Springs to see Dr. AZURIN. I loved him and the staff. He was very honest and said what he was willing to do and what he did not recommend. He said that the upper abdominal could be liposuctioned, but not aggressively which is what I want but respect that he opted to be modest. I felt so comfortable that I didn't even make it to Salhauzer. I am going with Azurin and my appointment is set for Feb 18! Please help with with any Lipo tips and preparation. He is also going to do a scar revision for me. Any advice on minimizing the scar for african american or asian skin is heavily appreciated!

Hello, I just saw your post while I was updating mine. I just had flank lipo February 1. I did not go under general. I had local. It was easy! So talk to your doc about doing local instead of general if you do not want to go under. I had a tt in August and also did not like the muffin top. The flank lipo helped a lot! Feel free to look at my pics and reviews. What type of scar revision are you getiing? I am not black, but I have darker skin (Sicilian & spanish coloring). My scar is thick, dark and heavy too. I hate it. I use cocoa butter, bio oil, palmers, I even got fade cream at walmart (in the ethnic section). I think african american women use it for dark spots. I don't know what to do, It is not a keloid scar, but hypertrophic...raised and dark and ugly. It sucks. I am considering getting a tattoo over it, but my doc said to wait 1.5 year from the surgery. Plus, it is raised, so I don't know if a tattoo will work well. Anyway, check out the option to do local anesthesia, it was a breeze. And let me know about your scar treatment. Thanks

Thanks LADY! No suggestions on anything to help with the look of the scar. I am getting scar revision because Dr. Azurin said my scar feels hollow and is going to use a different closure. am doing general because I am getting upper abs, flanks, and back done. I am nervous. Hope all goes well!

It totally depends on how much fat you have removed and where. I was kind of excited cause they might give me an epidermal??But since i needed my whole back, whole abs , under arms and inner thighs, it was too much so I had to have general. Really whacked me out for a week. Lots of meds..ugh
Good luck and keep us posted.
