WORTH IT$9,500
This was 7months I'm 9 months now and still swell a little. .. I will get a tattoo to cover up the high scar. I still don't regret getting the tummy tuck would do it all over again if I had to. I have a bulge on the left side that I want to get coolsculpting on but it a lot of money so I guess I will just live with it

5 months po tummy tuck

zionedwards12
So I'm almost 6 months come next month and so far so good with a little down side. Down side I'm still swollen but no where near what I use to be, I still feel tight and a little sore still. My scar which I was upset about Is way better thanks to the silicone gel Strips, I'm still going to cover it with a tattoo once I'm fully healed. I'll be honest I don't work out really anymore which om definitely going to get back to it.

It's looking good now. Have you been getting lymphatic drainage massages?
March 15, 2022
Thank you. No I don't get them, I just rub it and massage it myself.

Hi. Why u dislike ur scar and was there anything’s than your surgeon could’ve done to improve it? I’am bordeer line to get a TT but the scar scares me since I have other scars on my arm that healed thick.

The scar is very high and usually you should be able to hide it under your underwear. My Dr. Gave me a reason as to why he did it that way but I just don't know, I am happy I got it though. I'm just going to cover the scar with a tattoo.

6 week's nervous about my scar

zionedwards12
So I'm 6weeks now and I get still in my stomach area I'm nervous about how my scar will turn out. I stared using the silicone gel Strips but feel it's making my scar darker as I already a women of color. I got the Maderma and bio oil. So let's see, I'm still early in the game. My Dr said, to wait two more weeks before I can really work out. I didn't sneeze or cough for the whole 6weeks lol was to scared. I'm still not comfortable with everything yet as in I don't feel like my normal self when it comes to my body.

It looks great I want to have it do e but I'm terrified of the price & pain.lol its it expensive?
October 25, 2021
Honestly I had no pain, I didn't need to take the pain meds they gave or Tylenol. I woke up from surgery hungry that's about it. My Dr. Was just that good I guess also I workout and only fat if you want to call it that I had was just my belly after my 2nd child 9 year's later. Every Dr. Is different with the pricing I put roughly what I paid bc again Dr's. Might give different pricing depending on the severity of the patient. Don't be scared do as much as research as you can on the procedure and the Dr. As you can. Start working out before the surgery and eating healthy as well and I'm sure you will do great.

I'd be pissed your scar is Way to higher. That's straight on your stomach. It's supposed to be above your public area
December 28, 2021
No need for me to be pissed. One I was very swollen their so it looks much higher than what it appears in the pic. 2 I spoke with my surgeon as to the reason, I was only 121 and did have much fat on me besides my belly. 3 it's nothing a tattoo can't cover up. Let's see yours.
