Tummy Tuck!! - Concord, CA

Hi! I know its been 3 years since your last post but just in case you see this...curious how you are doing? Reading your posts I too say the sam things to myself. Im fit and thin. Do CrossFit. Everything is in shape but my tummy. Single and twin pregnancies. Like you am fearful of the scar, wanting it to be low enough. I struggle because sometimes I look at myself an think I don't look so bad, but when I bend over and see a chicken neck or put on my pants and my extra skin rolls over it drives me crazy. Some friends think I look great and am crazy. So had the money, scar and risks been worth it? I work really hard to take care of myself and have a nice shape but this damn tummy!

Alidoshus: You look great! Are you still glad you took the leap of faith? I have a similar situation to yours. I am 5'4", 105 or less pounds, no pregnancies. I lost some weight the last couple of months. I have already had 3 abdominal surgeries - ovarian cysts, eventually removal of both ovaries, and a scar repair on the vertical incisions that had been created. I had vertical because the doctors (6) believed I probably had cancer. I did not. Anyway, I look good in clothing; however, I want the vertical scar gone, the muscles repaired, and the extra skin removed. But I wonder if I should go on this adventure at 66 years old? Also, I exercise 7 days a week mostly spinning and treadmill. Any suggestions? Be well and happy!

You look fantastic! So glad your experience is a good one too. Our PS knows his stuff. Continued happy healing and cheers to feeling normalish again. :-)
