Thanks. My surgery is scheduled for 3/26. During which they will repair two hernias, perform male breast reconstruction, a panniculectomy with muscle repair. Currently, they have me planning on being out for at least 8 weeks.

I had exactly the same problem us your and I had mine done in 2016. He promised thousand of things and almost 2 years later I’m totally unhappy with my results. Compared from how was before it looks really good, but I’m brasilian and I had friends done over there and they look perfect, mine is sagging, specially wen I’m have intimate time with my husband and I’m on top, it looks ugly and embarrassing

I had a panniculectomy and Lipo with muscle repair done and I had to pay for the extras as well. I'm not completely happy with my results either. Dr said to wait until my month visit so he could see results then and I'm hoping he say he could fix it without surgery. I feel like I should have just got the panni done and not paid for anything else. But what can we do? Pray it gets better for us!

Do you recall when the burning sensations went away? I'm roughly 3weeks post-op and still feeling almost constant burning sensations on the center-right location of my Panniculectomy scar. I rarely feel this burning anywhere else.
