Latest pic 2 years on. 90% of scar has completely faded. I'm more than happy with the results and wished I had done it earlier. The join part of the scar is taking the longest which is expected as I did have a couple of problems healing there which was explained to me prior. The reason was due to lack of blood flow and the T join.

18 months post op
Wow time flies by doesn't it. I can't believe it's been 18 months. Everything is back to normal thank goodness. I know you ladies will be thinking Will I Ever Feel Normal Again??? Yes you will, just give it time. I am the happiest I have ever been. My weight is still down, I'm so active, I'm buying size 12 dresses and pants it's just awesome. So glad I took my doctors advice and did the Fleur De Lis Procedure. The scar is almost invisible now and I'm loving my flat tummy!!

Thank you so much for your review, and for staying with Realself. I'm having a fleur-de-lis TT on Thursday, and am nervous as heck! I've been experiencing the lack of motivation to go to the gym, and the lack of patience for the surgery that you mentioned, so it makes me feel infinitely better that I'm not alone. Since I've already had a breast lift and arm lift (I lost 130 lbs and have A TON of excess skin) I know a bit of what to expect with the healing... just not in the abdominal area.
You look great, and your outcome is inspirational! Thank you again for posting!

Congratulations on such a wonderful outcome! Do you have any updates or progress pictures. I am in the process of researching Drs and Dr Lee is on my list. Would love to see how your scar has progressed :)

Hi There. I haven't taken one recently but can do tonight and upload it for you. I can't speak highly enough of Dr Lee. He was brilliant before and after surgery. Alex his nurse is great too. I could email her after if I was unsure about anything. All the staff in there are brilliant.

Everything is going really well. I've kept my weight down and going well at exercising with weights,boxing and some cardio (although I hate it). My hips have reduced quite a bit which is lovely. The scarring has faded quite alot and the doctor said over time the t join will fade as well but due to the slight problems in healing that area it may take a bit more time.

You look great!! I am a 68 year old male who after losing 35kg is looking gross, so I am having the 'Fleur-de-lis procedure I about a months time. Your recovery timeline is about what my Surgeon has indicated to me, so I can't wait. Keep it up, and be the best you can.

Good on you imath - just take it slow. Recovery is a slow process but follow your doctors instructions and you should be ok. Happy healing.
