2 Days Post Mini Tummy Tuck - Grand Marais, MI

My navel wasn't touched, he left it in place and did muscle repair by sewing my abdominal walls back together. He did above the navel muscle repair and also the lower half. I am very satisfied with the results, but I am now wishing I had done a full tt. Even though I have the appearance of being flat, when I sit down, I still get about 3 rolls that make an appearance :( and yes I am working out like a freak. I do about an hr of intense cardio 6 days a week and I think what I have left is just extra skin. I'm so grossed out by those rolls. :((

Ty. I use mederma and bio oil 2-3 times a day. Today is 8 weeks exactly, and no I don't feel tired. I was extra super cautious this whole time. I did NOT want to rip or loosen my muscle repair, so I haven't done anything major- not even any kind of exercise... Which brings me to the swelling, I was told by the 2nd month it would be almost gone. I did notice the first 4 weeks I couldn't wear any of my regular jeans. I was really upset about that, but about week 5 I was soo happy to be able to button my jeans again. I did notice that at night I would be more swollen. But being week 8 today, I still look "swollen"- but I will attribute that to the not working out thing. Lol. But just this week I started weaning myself back into it, I want to achieve my "fit and toned" goal. I hope to post pics of my (hopefully) bikini body, in a couple months. Wish me luck :) haha I need it!

WOW!! Ur results keep getting better!! U look awesome!

Good question... I have no clue- I didn't ask. Sorry I can't help with that question.

I'm so glad my post was able to help u :) and lol thanks- it's a bit longer than he said it would be, but that's ok. I am loving my results, and from what I hear, I am still swollen- so the results are going to be even better! Yes! But just wanted to let u know that since day 10 I have been putting "mederma" and "bio-oil" onto the scar on a daily basis about 2-3 times a day. I'm guessing that's why my scar is looking pretty decent so far. I have side view pics that I will put up- I think that shows a more drastic difference. My muscles were pretty bad, I always looked preggo :( but now I look un-preggo again for the first time in 5 years. It's wonderful!!!!
