I exercise daily, have lost weight 5'5, 150 lbs (don't think i'll get much below that no matter how hard i try) and said if i didn't get this belly jiggle and stretch marks removed by 55 then whats the sense! so next month i'll be 55 so it was my birthday treat to myself. so happy i did it. i'm 2 weeks post op today. feel good. belly is still swollen, but everything i'm told and read that is to be expected for 4-5 weeks. jiggle is gone, stretch marks are gone. i'm very happy with the results and look forward to starting to exercise in 1 month!
For me it was quite painful I was a deflated 36A im now a 36 C . I was tired of avoiding beaches and lakes I sm a mom of 4 im 29 and needed a boost. So I finally called my ps and booked a consul. The surgery went smooth .But in the begining I thought the tightness woyld never leave. It does though eventull. The muscle spasms lasted a long time. But each day it got better for me. I went with smooth round saline 475 ccs mod plus mentor. I am now back to normal and my final result is now pretty much set in. Im late posting this but wanted to share my exp. Im pleased with my results and was confident in my bikini this summer....

I'm tall and square shouldered so they actually fit well on me and the recovery has been much faster than my first boob job. I need to lose some weight though lol my tummy is getting pudgy. I haven't even gone bra shopping yet but I'm about a 38 full D maybe a little more in some bras. I've been doing my daily massages and it has made them considerably softer. Luckily I had enough soft tissue to keep these implants soft. They have fluffed quite a lot over the last week and i'm already used to them only they feel a bit heavy when I sleep but nothing terrible. Well I think these are a keeper so the revision was a success..

Updated on 31 Mar 2015: .. Updated on 28 Jun 2015:
I was satisfied with my tummy tuck surgery. Dr. LaVan corrected my stomach with a full tummy tuck after having lipo done someplace else that made my stomach skin looser. I am most happy that the tummy tuck scar is very thin and practically unnoticeable. I have a flat stomach and you can see the outline of my six pack and with exercise it makes it even better looking. I would definitely recommend Dr. LaVan to others. He is easygoing and very reasonable and willing to work with your concerns.
It sounds like the spaces made for your implants (pockets) may be either too large and/or go too far to the sides. Since the implants can move anywhere in these pockets, they fall to the sides when you lie down. Sometimes use of a push-up bra for a few months will let the spaces tighten down, but after this amount of time, you may need surgery to correct your problem. I'd recommend talking to your surgeon and getting his/her input.
