Extended TT, muscle repair, ultra body lift, panniculectomy, rhynoplasty, septoplasty. Have had my labs and EKG, just waiting for the clearance from doctor. I was scheduled to have this done in two parts, but now all proceedures will be done on the same day. I am both excited as well as scared. I am looking forward to the flat side. I had a botched c_section at 19 and have a verticle 9 inch scar that goes through my belly button. Adominal muscles were also severed. I have had numerous infections . I know this is a life changing journey..will post photos later

Hi, I am 57, married 39 years with four grandkids; just had my tummy tuck 9 days ago with liposuction. I was 213 lb and am five feet three and a half inches tall; I had ten pounds of fat removed from my spare tire and liposuction of flanks and neck. It was a daunting proceedure, but with a great surgeon and care I am doing well.

I am as well, had my HRT implants this morning and judging by their location, looks like they may be sucked out of me...

Thank you for your encouragement and prayers, my surgery is less than a week and my emotions are all over the spectrum. I have lived with this condition since I was 19, because a doctor was tired and wanted to go home , so he performed an c-section that cut through my navel and severed my muscles. My surgeries were scheduled for last August...long story, I was very disappointed but God had a better plan, my insurance is paying about 80%, where the other PS did not even bother to see if there could be any covered expenses. I am now saving over 13,000.00 and will be under better conditions with I believe better care. My first PS does a lot of advertising and has his own clinic which is more cookie cutter. Thank you again, I will keep you updated. .take care all...Sandra
