Hi dolls, here are a few post op photos. I had a full TT with muscle repair and lipo (back, flanks, and side). I'm very swollen but I'm also worried that I'm not flatter at the top:-( maybe I'm being paranoid. My PS did say he had to work a little harder (lipo) because I hade smart lipo last year and it left me with a scar tissue.

You can tell Its swollen so I think you may be very pleased once the swelling goes down. I just love how low he cuts. Have you done any research on results from people who already have scar tissue. I know ive come across a few reviews of people on here who had smartlipo and then later had regular lipo. maybe you will come across something that will give you a better idea of what youre dealing with. Did Dr. C give you any indication regarding your outcome despite the scar tissue?

No, he said that everything went well. He also said he had to work a little hard because of it. The area is pretty soft. It may just be the swelling. Thank you.

I'm super nervous. I went for my pre op with Dr. Cochran yesterday and everything went well. He and his staff were really nice. He explained everything. He stated that I would have great results:-). I'm headed to Columbus from Atlanta now for surgery. I will update you dolls as soon as I'm able. To the flat side:-)

Hello! My surgery is at 7:30am on 11/11/16. I have another consult with him on 9/14/16 for fat transfer to buttocks. I'm nervous but excited at the same time. I only have two wks off work and that's pushing it. Does anyone know if Dr Cochran fills out FMLA papers?

Yes, they do. I think her name is Jennifer (FLMA paperwork)
