More work to come...?
So these last few weeks I've been really putting some thought into having a Tummy Tuck done within the next 6 months.. I've been working out and eating better and have noticed change in all but my most concerning area... My "6 month gut", I call it... Now I know it's do to my extremely stretched out abdomen :( so, so, so upsetting smh But! If there is a will, there is a way, and I will most definitely have it corrected. I haven't come this far just to give up on myself now.. I'm going to stick with the workouts and clean eating, & try to eliminate pop in preparation. As far as location and surgeon goes... I will probably be going back to Miami to see Dr. Ortega. I'm still so satisfied with my BL/BA results, I see no reason to go elsewhere. However, I will not rule out anyone else completely.. Going to keep my eyes peeled and research as much possible.. Hopefully ill be getting this taken care of come June/July! A new journey awaits...
Keepin ya posted!
So I'm just about 4 months PO! Everything has been going pretty good. A few bumps in the road but nothing that was never manageable. I have noticed that my right areola incision has been flaring up every now and then... Gets a little red, itchy, and raised. Nothing too concerning for now but something ill be keeping tabs on lol Aside from that, all is well. Definitely still happy with my decision to go under the knife! :)
I'm back! Lol
Been meaning to update for some time now.. Sorry about that to anyone who may have been interested in my journey lol
So! The "girls" have been healing nicely. My healing process has went almost as smoothly as possible. Aside from a couple of spitting stitches I never really had wound issues. Once the stitches had been removed, the tiny hole they created closed within days.
My scars seem to be healing nicely as well, considering I haven't been using my scar treatment the way I should... It's a gel and can sometimes be really annoying to apply then keep applied lol
Haven't been sized officially yet (coming soon) but I'm guessing I'm about a 36 D-DD.. Attaching some updated pics

Provider Review
Dr. Ortega definitely knows what he's doing!. He's definitely NOT one of those "gimmicky" doctors that let you walk out of the surgery center looking ridiculous. He has an eye for perfecrion, and hands that work magic! ☆☆☆☆☆ Top of the line plastic surgeon!
