Hi again-Getting closer to making my decision, and I'm leaning towards Dr. Griffiths for the tummy tuck. Any chance you could post current pictures of your tummy in front and side views, belly button and scar? I would love to see how you've recovered! :)

Hi there-I have had a recent consult with Dr. Griffiths as well for same procedures--tummy tuck and BA. Now that you are a couple weeks out, can you give me some insight about how your overall satisfaction with the process? How was your pain management? How did you do with the breast massages? Are you glad you did both procedures at once? Thanks, and so glad you're happy with your results! Your TT scar looks amazing one week out! :)

I have to say, I have nothing but GREAT things to say about everyone in Dr. Griffiths office!! I absolutely love him and his staff! He did a fantastic job and I have had zero complications. For me, I think my breast augmentation has been harder on me that the tummy tuck. My tummy wasn't in any pain and the only pain I was in was due to my breasts. I took Norco for the first few days for pain and after that I only took Tylenol. I probably took tylenol for a week and then stopped because I didn't need it. I am now 4 weeks post op and I love my results!!! My boobs are perfect and my tummy is so flat. :) The breast massages are very easy and quick. My husband does them and it is only 10-20 seconds on each side for a few times a day. I think doing both procedures at once made it harder with the recovery. The reason I say this is because With a tummy tuck you get your skin pulled down, and with a breast augmentation you get your skin pulled up so I was so extremely tight from both of them together. Im not really sure if I am glad I did them together or not, but it did save me a little bit of money doing them at the same time. I highly recommend Dr. Griffiths to everyone in this area who is wanting plastic surgery. He pays attention to detail and does what he can to make you look great. I hope this helps!!! If you have any questions please feel free to ask! :)

Hi again- Thank you so much for all the information you provided for me! I am glad to hear that things have gone so well overall with Dr. Griffiths. He is my top contender for my tummy tuck at this point, but I have 1 to 2 more surgeons to consult with. Did you use a pain pump on your abdomen? He recommended that for me. Are you happy with your belly button? The pictures he showed me on former patients all had amazing belly buttons – some of the best I've seen in all the research I have done. Is there anyway you can post updated pictures including one showing your belly button up close? Thanks so much and hope you have continued to make progress in your recovery!

I will post more recent photos. :) Yes I had a pain pump and it was a LIFESAVER! It kept me numb and I would have been in a lot of pain without it. I also met with a second surgeon but I felt Dr. Griffiths was the right surgeon for me. Right now my belly button is small but he told me it will open up as I heal and get bigger. My stomach is look great, the incision is healing nicely and I LOVE my boobs. LOL
