9 months update
GIRL DON’T DO IT! After 9 months, the skin on my legs has got worse. It hangs with wrinkles and dimples around the front of my upper thigh and all down the back of my thighs. It’s gross, especially when I bend over and am only 48. It’s been almost 9 months and I had met with my surgeon 2 weeks ago to show him there were no changes to my stomach at all. He offered to do a tummy tuck at a discount. I’ve spent almost $30k on both operations; first one was breast implant exchange, lift and fat transfer to my rear. Second surgery was bodytite on my stomach and banana roll. I can’t afford any more surgeries, let alone the down time involved with a tummy tuck. Kinda stuck and regretting it! It will only get worse as I age.
4 months
It’s been 4 months since I had the bodytite procedure. I have occasions where I feel a sharp pain, like electro current in my stomach. I’ve also noticed that the pigment is different. I’ve gone to the beach a few times and my stomach doesn’t tan like it use to. I do wear usb 15 sun block. I have posted photos taken this morning.
Still not feeling this was worth it.

One month post op
Thought I would post an update since it’s been 3 weeks since my last.
I am still wearing spanxs 12 or more hour a day. The itching has continued but it has quieted down a bit in the last week or two. There are days when it’s worse then others and not sure why. I’m still putting lotion on my stomach each morning.
The back of my legs are starting to look different. They feel tight in back and would hurting when I would sit on a toilet seat but that has now subsided. When I bend over to stretch, they look awful! Huge indentions and uneven areas.
I wore a bathing suit this past weekend for a short trip to Florida and my skin in the areas I had bodytite done looks very wrinkled, like I aged 20 years. I was so embarrassed that I wore a muscle shirt and shorts.
My stomach still has track marks/scars and I’m not sure if it’s permanent. I’m supposed to wear sunblock if out in the sun and I gather that means I cannot use a tanning bed either. That would most likely make the scars/ track marks more visible all over again so I’m careful to keep everything covered. I have a lump of fat on the left hip bone and still have a pouch of fat above the belly button.
I saw the doctor two weeks ago and was told that there is still swelling but I don’t believe that’s the case. I know my body. I missed my 1 month check up today due to work that I need to reschedule.
I’ll post another update in a month.
