WORTH IT$9,040
hey gals! I had my 2nd post op follow up with my ps on Monday and he removed some of my bb stiches. He gave me some gel for my scar "ultra dermatix". Anyone used it before? I read online that there are better scar therapy creams or sheets out there but I will use what my ps gave me for now. My back pain is gone which is good and I am pretty much standing straight. I go back to work next week and I think I will be fine. I posted some day 14 pics. The end of my scar on my right hip-where the drain was- has a flap where it's trying to heal. Is this the dog ear I keeping reading about? Anyways my ps said he will fix it so I am happy about that. I have to wear my binder for 6 weeks! All in all, I am really happy with my results and so glad I did it! My next follow up with ps is Feb 4. I just read on someone else review that if you lose more than 10lbs after a TT that could leave you with saggy skin on your tummy??yikes is this true? I was planning to lose 20lbs once I am clear to start working out again. I just signed up for the Sporting Life 10K run on Mother's day and the ScotiaBank Half-Marathon in Oct!! Got to start running again! Anyways hugs to you all.

You look great! I have the same issue of scar being a little high but it sounds like it still has to settle and it will drop. Can't wait to see more pictures. Happy healing!
looking good!!!!!!!!continued luck for you LUCK LUCK LUCK LUCK LUCK LUCK LUCK LUCK !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I dont think that is true about the weight loss after tummy tuck. I spoke to my PS about I want to lose 15-20 pounds and he said that is fine. It wont affect it. It will stay flat and not return. I dont think you have anything to worry about.
It should only tune up!
Looking good.
Hi can u let me know fhe best clothes for after survery and what your favorite life saving items where.
I lived in loose track pants, tank tops and sweaters with zippers I could just throw on. I got myself a heating pad for my back, magazines, frozen diners. I watched a lot of tv and netflix movies. Hubby rented me an electronic hospital bed which was great but I only needed it for about a week. When is your date? Excited for you!

day 8 po and I am feeling good. Not as much back pain and I was up and about for a few hours today. The only thing that's still driving me crazy is the itchyness on my sides under the cg and the numbness! Anyways the swelling is going down a bit and I am liking the progress. Went to Vic Secret today and bought some bandeaus and a bikini!! yay! Anyways many hugs to you all and hope you're all well!

Got my drain out today and the go ahead to take a shower yay! I am happy with my results so far and have posted some day5 pics. The most pain I had so far was today when my two year old made me laugh so hard I thought I was going to split open. Can't wait til I can walk upright and the back pain goes away. I out some Icy Hot gel on and I have some relief now. Anyways ladies I hope everyone is well and happy healing to all!

PO day 5-Had my first post op Dr visit today. Got my drain removed which was ok, no pain. I got my bandages off and the nurse cleaned me up. They said I can take a shower and all I need to put on my scar is Polysporin ointment on it once a day. I stopped my pain med yesterday and the only thing I need to take is my antibiotic for the next 5 days. My next appointment with my PS is next Monday and I will get my stitches removed then and discuss scar therapy at that time-eg silicone strips etc. Anyways I will post pics soon. My scar is low and I am liking what I see so far.:)
Congrats you look great!
