I'm a 46 y/o mother of three: a 22 and 23 y/o and a 10 y/o. I had a c-section in '88 & 2 vbacs. I'm 5'4" and 120 at my lightest weight, 150 at my heaviest. My motivation for having a tummy tuck w/ breast augmentation & lipo was essentially because I was tired of feeling unattractive and inhibited without my clothes on, and because there was nothing else to be done about the degree os diastasis I had. I also had heavy stretch marks and an ugly c-section scar. I had the surgery on 9/10 at Williamson Cosmetic Ctr (Dr. Weiler & staff) and I couldn't be happier with my results already. Which isn't to say it was an easy surgery or breezy recovery- this is a MAJOR procedure & choice. The 1st wk after was very painful & rough, and I'm told I did far better than many. I'm still sore at times now, get more tired than usual & the aftercare requires time, patience and commitment to deal w/ compression garments, therapies &-well-aggravation. But would I do it again? YOU BET! It gets better every day & my psychic wellbeing is far better than it has been in years. I love looking down at my tummy & Dr. Weiler did an amazing job of restoring my breasts to pre-breastfeeding appearance. Don't have B7A pics yet, but will post soon. No regrets whatsoever, just wish I had done this sooner!
