Tummy tuck update!
$17,000
I didn’t have liposuction on my waist during tummy tuck and now that I’m a year healed I noticed wearing bikinis I have fat that sticks out! Eeek I’m going under to have lipo between my breast and also adding liposuction.

Update
Hello ladies, I know you’ve been asking me for updates. I haven’t been happy with my results. I waited the 6 months and saw him again, and unexpectedly I got the worse answer I never wanted to hear again. “That’s the best that it going to get”. I wanted to cry as this has been the same words all the doctors said to me after my surgery and I trusted them to give me the revision surgery I needed. Although I felt I had to insist that there was something that can be done to correct the tenting of my sternum he told me to try j plasma but he didn’t offer it. Initially when I consulted with him he said he would perform liposuction, use gala flex and repair the breast pocket. I did not receive the liposuction and was really bothered that he didn’t do it. I paid $10,500 and I didn’t get the results or patient care I thought I would receive. I am now going to Dr. Z to perform the liposuction and jplasma to operate the sternum area or cleavage area. My tummy tuck is great and healing.

Wow, I'm sorry that happened to you. I was considering this PS to do my revision and now I'm not even going to bother. I feel like my original PS is doing the same thing to me, but he is super sweet about it. Telling me that I look great when my implants have clearly bottomed out. Hopefully you get the results you are looking for and the care you deserve! Your tummy looks super sexy!
They all lie … get your money then when things start falling apart it’s nothing they can do …. I wish they’d just be honest and say you’re screwed take them out…
I would suggest finding a doctor who does the internal bra. Seems to be one of the only solutions. I am going through symmastia right now and hoping it will be corrected shortly.
That “internal bra” is just a capsulorraphy and that eventually falls apart from natural movement , weight gain, loss etc .. unless you have really good tissue , skin , etc … my dr told me it’s inevitable
Dr Zeidler ?
Dr.zuri
Dr Zuri fixed your synmastia? I still have above the muscle skin tenting . My surgeon only fixed below the muscle my implants are under the muscle. He said where I have the problem they don’t go in that area ….
Sorry, I see now you’re going to Zuri. I hope it works out for you I’m in the same boat so I know the feeling and yes they all promise they can fix it but after 3 months when shit falls apart again they act like they didn’t say I can fix it all. It’s terrible to go through this too it’s depressing and takes a toll on your self esteem.

Tummy tuck update
Here’s a quick update on my surgery 6 months ago. My tummy tuck has been the best decision I’ve made and Dr.Krau did an amazing job from my scar to belly button. Still healing but I’m very happy with my tummy tuck. My breast have healed well, no pain or issues. They are more separated now but I still have a slight issue with tenting in middle but talking to doc to see another small procedure to try to fix it. My breast issue is not like many others, I think my issue is rare but glad that he is trying to help me. I’ll update if anything changes!

Did the lipo and J plasma help with the tenting? I am experiencing the same issue.
