“Tummy Tuck Not Easy but Worth It - Cuernavaca, Mexico”
Late for the sky
Worth It
Spent: $4,500 in Cuernavaca, Morelos
Spent: $4,500 in Cuernavaca, Morelos
I had tried lipo which had decent results but no dramatic change.
My main issue was not so much the abs themselves but my waist which had never been well defined, even when I was in my 20s and slender. I was also bothered by the skin around my upper abdomen after years of yo-yo dieting. My tendency was to gain weight in my midline. I lost 10 pounds before I had the surgery done so I would have better results.
I am only a bit over two months out and will continue to see improvement, but already I am thrilled with my results.
Pros: I went from a 28.5 inch waist pre-op to 24 inches today, without losing my curves. I expected a change but honestly I didn't imagine it would be possible! Of course it has everything to do with my amazing surgeon who knew exactly how to make that happen.
Cons: The pain was about as I expected. I had surgery on a Thursday but by Monday the most intense pain had passed. But you really need to rest for a full week or more. I didn't, and that was a mistake. I was discouraged at first at the swelling in my lower abs, but that was temporary.
Worth it!!

I was also happy to read your post about resting that first week or more. This is a zinger of a recovery and rest is very necessary.

Price was not high on my list of priorities since abdominoplasty, as you know well, is major surgery! I was looking for a highly qualified and reputable surgeon for an honest(not necessarily bargain basement) price.
I know having more than one procedure done at a time is a good way to get a lower price overall, but I was really only interested in the TT.
