Tummy Tuck Revision: Stories

I recently posted my traumatic experience with an Inverness Fl. Plastic Surgeon. 2 yrs after this devastating time in my life I met a PS that gave me hope that I could wear a swimsuit, lingerie, and fitted clothing again. I was hesitant to trust another PS after the first TT. But I am so glad I did. Dr Nijher was very forthcoming and honest on what could be done he gave me reasonable expectations from the very start. In 2 weeks I will drive from TN to FL to have a small revision on the scar that was once a BB. I look and feel like a completely different women. After my 1st TT I felt mutilated and less of a women. I was even ashamed to be seen naked in front of my husband. I never thought I would be more insecure after a TT then I would be with my mommy tummy. I didn't have any stretch marks or much weight loose, so having a scar that was closed with metal staples through the center of my stomach (Healed thick and with little purple scars along the scar), and fat left in a circle around my waist and BB, and a bulge of fat under the center of the scar it was was very depressing. No matter how much I tried to be positive bad plastic surgery is hard to deal with.

As I posted my story here and on another website, I soon realized there are a lot of people that got unethical and disturbing results from a Certified Surgeon. I sometimes wonder how great my results would have been if I had chosen Dr. Nijher first instead of it being a revision. But either way I am extremely happy with my results. Dr. Nijher and his nurse called me often to check on me and gave me a number so I could call and ask any questions I had during recovery. 6 months after my revision I moved to TN for my husbands job. This made it very hard to schedule my 1 yr post op and any revisions I might need done. But there office was very accommodating on scheduling me in when I was going to be in town. When I decide to have any future procedures I will not hesitate to drive 8 hrs to have it done by Dr. Nijher and his staff. For anyone who has had a botched plastic surgery, please don't think all surgeons are like that. I thought I did all of my research and asked all the right questions and still ended up choosing poorly. If you asked me a yr ago if I had any pros of a TT I would have easily said NO! Now that I have had my revision and have seen what my results should have been, I am so very happy that I did it. Thank You Dr. Nijher.
