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.

Hi! When the swelled goes down, you're going to have great results!
Thank you
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 up next , this week. Nerves shooting hard lol

Day of treatment

Today is the day!!!

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:-)

Thank you! Will do!
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)
Thx for the info on the FMLA. That would be a lot of help. I'm gonna post some before pic as soon as I build up my nerves
No problem:-)
Girl you are going to love what Dr. Cochran does. His scar placement is super low.
I'm so ready (and nervous..lol)
Thanks for sharing. Your pictures aren't bad at all. Just wait till I post move lol. Seriously we all see ourselves differently and just want to look our best. Can't wait to see your after pics.
Thank you! That's the goal...lol
