Hi I'm new and don't really know if I'm doing this right yet! I am 28 years old and have 5 kids including twins. 11,7,4 and my twins are 1. My tummy tuck is scheduled for March 25th and I'm excited and nervous and thinking do I really want to do this....well of course! but there's something about it that makes me have mixed emotions. I've had all 5 of my kids vaginally so no scar on my abdomen just wrinkly skin and stretch marks. I guess that's what makes me have the mixed emotions is having the scar across my stomach. It is better than wrinkly skin and stretch marks though lol I have an appointment with the nurse on March 11th and an appointment with the Dr. On the 21st for markings. I'm very nervous and scared! Ah

For me personally I didn't care about the scar at the beginning, I just wanted the bulges (muffin top off) lol... Look in the mirror and analize..hopefully your doc makes a thin line and down the line if you need a scar revision to help the scar, you just do it. Some doctors do it complimentary.. I think once you're in the flat side, you'll be do happy.....well, good luck to you. :)

Thanx! One of the questions I had for him was how the scar looks he said it will be thin and if not I could do scar revision. Right now I feel lost with all of this haha

You'll be fine. The clothes will fit better. And is good you are getting the surgery now and not in the summer. The sun causes the scar to darken, so this is the best time to get it done..good luck :)

Lipo help?

3PlusTwinsMakes5
Hello everyone! My Dr. Suggested Lipo on my sides so I get the best look out of the tummy tuck... But I don't know the first thing about Lipo, I've only researched a tummy tuck! My hips are uneven so my left side has more fat and kinda sticks out more than my right side. You can see what I mean in my pic above :/ I was wondering if anyone could help me out with any info/your experience? I'm not sure if I want to do it. Thanx in advance!

My stomach looks like yours. I have 5 children also, and the last we're twins that were 8 pounds each. I also have never had a c-section, or any other surgery to speak of. My twins are 6. I have had 3 consults and just keep chickening out. Something has changed though in the last month and I'm ready and excited. A short period of pain is a small sacrifice to pay in order for my skin to not hang over my pants! I can't wait to see your after pics. Good luck and stay calm. :)

Thanx! I agree once everything is healed for us it will be totally worth it!

Lipo is a great combination to a tt. To define even more your curves. Good luck on your journey.

I have twins as well! They're 2. I have a Review on here as well. In regards to the Lipo, if your surgeon says he wants to do it on you to contour you better, then definitely do it. Otherwise you may look uneven when the tummy tuck is all done. Good luck and can't wait to see your progress!

Thanx! Def don't want to look uneven! I'll check out your review :)

You are going to look fabulous after your TT! The scar is so much better than having a wrinkly belly (or in my case flabby)!
