Extremely bloated picture is my current situation, how do I proceed? (Photos)

Asked By:Sincere219028 in Kingsport, Tennessee

I originally posted this in April, but realized some information needed correcting in order to get the best answer. The pictures I had posted were in the wrong order. The extremely bloated one is my CURRENT situation. I had even LOST 10 lbs in that one! I was happy with the results originally, even with the swelling. Plastic Surgeon said fascia is too stretchy, and there would be nothing to anchor mesh to. One other plastic surgeon and a bariatric surgeon said same. Is this it?
