Ughhh in need of a revision or round 2
I'm now 6 months post op. Photos will follow.
I think most of us should resign to the fact a round will be required at some point or a revision to correct a few things.
I was very naive thinking Dr Goico could knock it out the park in 1 round. I am disappointed but it is what it is. I will look forward.
So what has been happening, I've been trying very hard not to [RS bleep] about my results because I know i have to be patient. Mommy makeovers is not a quick fix (I'm trying to be balanced here and again not [RS bleep] lol)
1st - I know i am a long away from where i started.
2nd - Overall i pretty much got what i asked for "natural" pffff. Piece of advice never ask for natural.
But......
1st - I absolutely hate my belly button. It's literally like a pin hole. It looks very unnatural, I've tried to put a marble to stretch and other things and it won't. Dr Goico said it'll get bigger but my bb hasnt.
Ladies make sure you discuss your desired bb look with your surgeon, I didn't realise how important it would be for me.
On that note I'm looking at a revision or a round 2. Dr Goico advises his patients to be patients as results take 9-12 to finalise so I think i have already told him i don't like but when i check in at 9 months/ 1yr I'm going to let him know i hate it. I hate it so bad it actually makes me feel bad everytime I look at it.
2nd - I have large rolls of fat above and below my belly button. It has the looks really bad to me. However, when i reached out to Dr Goico he said to exercise and to give it time.
I might add i have been exercising and I've actually lost about 3/4lbs before i took the photos with the rolls (yay me). But still those rolls are there, I'm not a bariatric patient so unsure why my stomach looks this way.
Anyway, I'm thinking maybe I'm still swollen as some of the tummy rolls have gone down a bit but it's still there. Part of me actually thinks not enough skin was removed from the lower abdomen as that has always had a pouch. But I'm going to stick with Dr Goico's request for now, exercise and see what happens in the next few months.
I'm thinking my waist could have been a little smaller. My current wait line is 30 - 31 ughhh. 1cm less than my pre op waist :(
3rd - My tummy tuck scar keloid, this happened after i couldn't get those damn silicone strips to stick lol. Anyway I found that elastoplast strips work way better than the other brands i was using and it has actually helped to flatten my keloids so bonus.
So now I'm thinking I need round of lipo and yes y'all I'm going to put that fat to good use in a bbl for more projection and hips. Oh and a tt scar revision. I'll do it right this time (stocking up on elastoplast strips lol)
For now I wait and see what happens.
This update is probably the hardest I have had to do but I've got to be honest with myself and to those ladies that also shared their stories the good and the bad.

4 months post up and holiday pics
I'm wearing my faja more regularly and I've started to do waist training to get ny waist down to 26ins. I'm definitely think a round 2 is required as stomach isnt as flat as i would like. Plus I'd like more hips. However if i can use a corset to help shrink my waist i may just stick to lipo only in europe. I'm going to get a quote anyway to see how much it will cost me.
I should say, i am not loving my belly button at all. Dr says it will get bigger but i just see it getting smaller. I'm going to wait til 6 months before i complain about it. I freaked out about my boobs the other day. They looked like they were stuck on and i did not have enough breast tissue for the implant. Dr Goico messaged me immediately regarding my concerns and stated in his opinion it was perfectly normal. Another thing I'm going to wait 6 months for.
Finally my lower belly is still swollen 4 months on. This is why i think i need more lipo and a bbl (well why throw good fat away). S
Take a look at the boobie shots and let me know what you think, please be honest . I have my implants over the muscle
See you guys in a month.

I loved his very personalised and thorough evaluation. I loved his work and the results he gives are very natural and feminine. This is what i'm after (although based on the evaluation I'd still love a little more junk in my trunk lol). I respect his opinion and that safety for him is paramount.
