I've been wanting a tummy tuck since I lost my weight but have never had the courage but I have the best support from my husband and now I am going to see what it feels like to have a relatively flat stomach. There isn't much info on the internet about this procedure so it's great to finally find some ladies who have had this procedure that I can talk to about the process

Welcome to this great community. I had a TT on Sept 28th. Haven't posted my most recent photos as my computer is down. It is so nice not to have to hide my stomach by wearing loose shirts. Also it seemed all my weight was in my stomach. No more using my tummy as an arm rest!

Yes one month to go and very excited. Have to get all my Christmas shopping down now and countdown will begin. Will look forward to sharing the experience with you Aralyn.

You'll be happy with the TT. Anytime you have a question, just send a post and I'm sure there will be many ladies who will respond to your concern. That's the nice thing about this site. All the best to you.

Glad to hear someone agrees with me (or at least understand) each persons' decision "to tell" OR "not to tell".

16 Days until my surgery and I've done as much research as I possibly can do now. This site has been a plethora of information. I have my pre op appointment on the 30th November and I'm armed with a list of questions especially as I'm having the Vertical T Tummy Tuck and there are only a couple of ladies on this site that have had it done. I'm so not looking forward to having to go without exercise for so long as since I've been on my health kick I've turned into a gym junkie..lol I'm sure I'll suffer withdrawals. So I'm just keeping everything crossed and hoping like crazy I'm like one of the lucky ones who has a quick recovery with no complications. Roll on the 12th December when I go to the flat side!!! I'd also like to say a big thank you to the ladies on this site who update their reviews constantly. You are all wonderful.

16 days until I have my TT and because of this wonderful site I'm ready as I will ever be. I've been really uptight because of the type if procedure I'm having but thankfully there was a couple of ladies in here who have helped. It doesn't seem to be very common.
Have my pre op on the 30th Nov so I am armed with loads of questions. I'm not looking forward to not being able to exercise - think I've turned into a bit of a gym junkie which is hysterical because I hated exercise about 12 months ago. 21 kilos lost later I now love it. Anyway thanks to everyone on here for your advice. It is greatly appreciated.

I was first told about the Fleur-de-lis TT by a brilliant Surgeon in India. I only had liposuction and he didn't force his opinions on me, but I knew it wouldn't address the loose skin (horizontally and laxity) from huge gains and losses in weight. My weight has stabilised now for some time (after massive weight loss) at 55kg. I was 65kg when I had the Fleur De Lis. I was so scared because I'd had very disappointing surgery 10 years prior and had disfiguring scars. I didn't know whether I was hypertrophic. I went to Aamod Rao, an awesome surgeon and waited 6 months after the liposuction he did. I had the operation on 25/3/2015. It's only been 4 weeks. He removed all the ugly disfiguring scars, created a navel (which had been botched from the surgery 10 years ago), and the scars are so fine and they are hardly even red!!! This man is a genius. There is no loose skin. All of the unsightly scars have gone. He has given me a navel where there was none from the botched surgery. It's a great solution for cases like mine (massive weight gain, loose skin horizontally and vertically). Believe me I have been exercising since I was 6 years old, a former Australian champion, but loose skin just doesn't go away when you ravage your body through massive weight fluctuations. You've love it. I do. After 10 years I fell into complacency, I had no idea that this could be fixed. Dr Aamod Rao from Mumbai made what seemed impossible possible and with no scars. I use all the silicone gel sheets this soon in but honestly the scars are barely visible. Best wishes

sorry fleur de lis done four weeks ago 25/3/2016 NOT 25/3/2015 (typo). Miraculous...I can hardly see it. People notice instantly that I'd lost weight but my shape is something that they comment on. I wouldn't go anywhere else. I've been to surgeons in first world countries but nobody offered this as a solution or executed it so perfectly.
