Dr. Thomas is amazing. He has a very calm demeanor and is very good at this procedure. He told me everything to expect and answered all of my questions and consoled my fears. The process of wait for the surgery date (was the worst part). First day is painful but each day gets easier. I was off my narcotics and using only ibuprofen for pain after day 3. The Valium is prescribed for muscle relaxation but also helped me not care much about the pain. I am now 2 weeks from surgery. Getting my last drain taken out today, which only took this long because I've been too busy to get it taken out. You have to rest for 2 full days afterward and I've been forced to be up and about and driving long distances to help family. My recovery is going so well and I'm healing up faster than I thought. My abdomen was closed along with obliques being sutures as well. The pictures are a few days before, lying in bed, the after is one day after surgery. Will add more in a couple weeks if post allows for it. I am so very happy I did this. My twins are 12 years old and I now wish I had done this many many years ago.

How much did it cost you? That looks like great results

He charged me just over $6000. The results are getting better. It's been 4 weeks ago today so a lot of swelling after this pic. That after was the next day. I think I've developed new stretch marks from the tightening of the skin but all in all I'm very satisfied. The weirdest thing is my belly button. It's so much smaller than my original and it will take some getting used to. It also seems a tad off center to me but could be just because of the swelling.

Was that 6000 with the liposuction or just for the tummy tuck?

Bonito 4000 Abdominal Binder

ichoosetoshine

I just wanted to leave a review for the Bonito 4000 binder. I read about it on here from another persons question bout what the best binder to use was. My experience with the company owner was unmatched by any I've ever had before. I called her onoany bd she answered all of my questions. Gave me her personal cell phone number to text her my measurements and pics of my abdomen. Ah gave me size recommendation as well as a 10% off coupon code. Congratulated me on my new body (even though I was really swollen in the pics) and was very helpful. Only a small feeling of how well the garment actually is. Her words were that it is to co-co Chanel of abdominal binders for the tummy tuck. I nearly lol'd but after wearing this garment for the last 2 1/2 weeks, I have to agree that it is top quality and my original binder from my surgeon didn't even come close to this garment. I highly recommend it. If I could give any recommendations though it'd be, if you think you're on he fence in regards to size, go with the smaller size. Owner recommended a large and it's now too big. Ordered my medium in a different type of gambit because I don't think I need the legs in the 4000, so if someone wants to buy my large, get at me. Otherwise I'm a faithful bonito shapewear customer. It's crazy comfy.
