Bilateral Medial Thigh Lift with Dr. Bandak

Time is rapidly closing in on the last procedure to address the loose skin from my >100 lbs weight loss. For those that hadn’t read my other review, I’ve struggled most of my life with obesity and have finally come out on the other side as a healthy, strong lady but had lots of wrinkly, loose skin. Love, love, love ???? the results from my body, arm, and BL/BA lift with Dr. Bandak last year. Now it’s time to finish up this masterpiece in progress. It’s been really tough to work so hard and yet have these loose, sagging parts of yourself that can really get you down. As happy as as I was last year, my inner thighs remained the one part holding me back from that bikini and feeling 100% confident in my new body. Well, Monday the time will come! I’m more excited but still nervous as last time was so incredibly nauseous and throwing up in recovery. Think I’m all set with supplies, garment, compression socks, high protein snacks/food, and Gatorade. I do dread the pain and mobility constraints ahead but mentally brace for what ever may come knowing how happy I will be on the other side. Procedure wise, there will only be the groin incisions and not down the inside of my legs so I hope for a slight easier recovery that had I have incisions down my entire thighs! That said, I know I’m in the best possible hands with Dr. B! His attention to detail, incredible bedside manner and the way not only he, but his entire staff make you truly feel like family gives me a comfort I can’t even adequately describe. Time is drawing near and I’m keeping my eye on the prize ~ Bikini ???? and Kauai ???? here I come (in August)!!!! Will post some before pics here shortly.

Nothing like putting it all “out there” but I know this has been super helpful for me in researching as well as to look back on later. 36 hours and counting now.....

Home now and working on pain management. I’ll post photos as soon as I can, likely in 2 more days when I can take a shower.
