Overall very pleased!
Leg scars are actually really light and the recovery was easier than expected with not a lot of swelling. Back was more painful then legs. I planned to be out of work for 2 weeks but went back after 3 and I’m on my feet all day and did pretty well.
Not sure why photos are rotated!

The Much Awaited Back and Thigh Lift

20 years ago, I lost 160 pounds with diet and exercise. I have been left with a lot of extra skin and have had various surgeries over the years. 5 years ago, I had a total body lift with Dr. Capella. This week, I went back for a back lift and vertical thigh lift. I am post op day #3. The first 2 days were pretty bad. Having my upper and lower body done at the same time makes it hard to move! The pain was really bad too as I made Dr C promise to pull my back as tight as possible.
My husband took this picture for me. I will include leg pictures in a day or two
