Hi everyone
I’m feeling great now, no pain and scar slowly fading. Belly button great but does show scarring so to a knowledgable eye, you can see it has been operated on but you wouldn’t necessarily think it was a TT!
Very happy with my results, glad I went through the hard work and pain.

Update at just over 3 months
Hi
I'm just over 3 months now and very very happy with my results.
I still get minor swelling but overall, it's flat.
I am now back to normal exercise, HIIT training twice a week, running up to 5k and daily long dog walks. These are all fine but I'm careful on abs work as this can make the internal suture joins sore.
I feel like how I should have felt without the excess skin. Potential candidate should understand that I did not suddenly loose weight and drop dress sizes, i did not suddenly get slim and people notice any difference, I look the same to others, but feel better in myself.
I can wear shorter tops and high waisted jeans with confidence. My legs and thighs are no different (no lipo) but running in Lycra looks better and feels better not having the skin.
I am scared, my belly button is still reddish round the edge and the area of scarring is still numb. The healing takes time but I would do it again no problem.
Mr Sherif Wilson was brilliant. I highly recommend Bath Clinic and his team, his kind professional approach was faultless, his communication excellent and he made me feel safe and reassured that I could see him anytime I felt I needed to, any concern big or small.
I see him again in December and will post more updates then x

You look awesome! You actually look like me in your pre op photos. I saw three dr's who all said a full tummy tuck wasn't necessary, and to have a mini, so I did and I'm so unhappy with my results. And so disappointed with those dr's, especially when I see your kind of results. So now it looks like I might have to go through this all again
hey. very similar to me, it was all due to c section loose skin not. so from the outside no one can see a different.I'm 5 weeks post op now. I'm not sure how I feel about this incision line being a lot higher than my c section. I can see it makes sense, I was cut low but the skin has stretched up and the pubes now higher too :s any update photos from you? love to see what I would be like soon. lol

Just thought I would add a brief update.
I m feeling much much better. I am now fully upright and running my business as normal which includes lots of physical movement and rushing around. I am also walking at normal speed and sneezing is not overwhelmingly painful for a few moments!
My belly button is still a bit sore and I am seeing Mr Wilson tomorrow just to check he is happy it is healing as it should and to reassure me really. One thing I didn't even consider is the to drain holes that I now have and my raised pubic hairline?!? That's one thing i am adjusting to! Don't get me wrong, my lovely surgeon hasn't stitched my public line to my belly button ???? but the pressure of the excess skin before must have contributed to me seeing it as low?!
However, still a bit swollen above my hips and at the flanks but overall, so far I m very pleased. Despite a few low days of feeling very stiff still in week 3, I've turned a corner now. Anyone considering this operation should consider getting as fit as our comfortable with and strengthen your back muscles through carefully guided exercises as this really helped me with not suffering severe backache like some others. Sleeping more on my side now, just cannot wait to get rid of the compression garment x

Hi, thanks for sharing , please can I ask has the swelling in your upper abs gone? And if so how long did it take to go ? I am 5 weeks post with mr Wilson and still very swollen / sticking out upper abs x
Hi there
Hop your feeling well. My procedure was done on 9 May and I'm all back to normal exercise etc, other than too much abs work can pull the sutures, so I obviously stop.
I do still have some sweeping but it's such a big improvement that I am ok to accept that. I've also been on holiday which my attribute to my swelling (perhaps weight gain 2/3lbs).
Are you moving around ok now?
