I have been wanting a Tummy Tuck since 2005, just after I had my last son. I have been dreaming of a new body since I lost most of that baby weight. My fear has kept me from even scheduling consultations until now. I am nervous just writing this knowing the reality of the fact I have committed to a Tummy Tuck and am scheduled for surgery this month. This summer I went to 4 consultations. I spaced them out and was able to bring my husband to two of them. I selected Dr. Campanile in Cherry Creek after lots and lots of thought. I picked Dr. C (as the office calls him :)) because he specializes in tummy tucks and invented his own drain less, class version that includes much needed lipo and some additional waist stitching that I need after my babies stretched my muscle walls. When I went in for the consultation Dr. C was so nice and the staff really knew what they were talking about. I didn't feel rushed with my bizzilion questions :) I am nervous, don't know how this will workout but at the same time, I can't wait to be over this "looks like i am pregnant - when i am NOT" body... Will keep you posted on my tummy tuck journey!

Congrats and you will be fine. The 1st step is usually the hardest one by committing and you did it!!! Now begins the planning and preparation, going over the checklist and knowing you made the right decision for you and you only.

I was the same way even thought of canceling the day of. I am not quite 2 weeks out but am very happy with it. The first 4 days are not fun but after that it's not to bad.

Next week it will have been 2 months since my surgery. My next follow up is at the end of next month, and maybe I will post the pictures then :) it has been a crazy 2 months! And just like you all said, the only regret is that I didn't do it sooner! I had the Class tummy tuck and I love it! I actually put on a dress from my babies body, my favorite honeymoon dress! My husband gasped when he saw it on me!!! I would b lying if I didn't mention that the first 2 weeks were tough, especially trying to get my boys ready for school while trying to recover properly. But, the two weeks were worth it, omg I love my new body , thanks dr.c ! The staff was great, always chatting with me when I needed some extra support. Now my swelling is down, by belly button is cute again and I couldn't be happier. Just wish I would have done it 9 years ago :)
