OVERDUE- 6 MOS PO UPDATE (Feburary Photos)

  • 20 Mar 2016
  • 7 months post
I took all of these photos last month and did not take the opportunity to upload and share my progress at the six month mark....I would welcome folks feedback on the following:
1) Should I have a Scar Revision at my "T-Spot"?
2) As you can see in the pic with the postnote I have more fat on one hip than the other- it is noticeably in yoga pants and certain one piece bathsuits- thoughts on what I should do?
3) I think my boobs are too big. I recognize that they match my large frame well but I remain very self conscious that I now have a "rack"- I welcome the honest feedback.

I also have my 7 MOS POST OP PICS -which I will post shortly- time does heal all wounds!

Noodling My New Body in the New Year

  • 9 Jan 2016
  • 5 months post
Just 5 mos PO and I still have good days and not so good days- I just wish I had my desire back to exercise. It takes all of my effort to get myself in gear. I am also very self-conscious around my friends and my nieces and nephews ( Ages 11-19). I still dress VERY conservatively, actually worse now than before my surgery with the exception of New Year's Eve- I did wear a fab dress and got lots of compliments but I was nervous and uncomfortable- hopefully in time this will pass. My scar is still very red ( I have such fair and sensitive skin) that it hurts to look at it. I have NO regrets at all, just harder than I had anticipated to recover long-term.

I consider myself very fortunate. MY PS is wired to always be mitigating risk- which is music to my ears- while I believed I needed a ton of work done, he was very clear on the amount of time he was comfortable operating on me while under anesthesia. This was his guiding principle. He also has been in the business for many years and does not need to "chase" clients/patients. He always has their best interest first and foremost. Dr. Kofkoff is also very responsive, calming and witty- in my opinion a winning combination- since to me being a great surgeon is table stakes (OK, maybe I am fortunate and shouldn't take that for granted) and Dr Kofkoff has an excellent office staff- Teresa, who has been working with him for over 25 years has a system down and it works. Dr Kofkoff client facing receptionist, Jamie, is a lovely caring individual and delivers the same high quality client service as both Dr KofKoff and Teresa. Together they all make up a wonderful "A" Team. If there are folks on the this site that are open to travel, I would strongly suggest you consider Dr Kofkoff- he is going to set realistic expectations, provide the best care available, excellent results and not forget your name when you leave his OR.
