Tummy Tuck & BBL - Dominican Republic October 2013 - Dra. Robles! - Dominican Republic, DO

Well, next month will make it 1 Year since I originally had my TT & I have to say that I am completely satisfied with everything!!! Now, in the past year, alot has changed and my swelling was almost all gone after 3-4 months. My incision and belly button were fully healed by January 2014. I wore my compression garment religiously for the first 5 months, but then started slacking off & that's when I noticed that my teeny tiny 26 inch (was 33 before TT) waist was starting to expand. I hadn't gained any weight, but my tone and shape were loosening, so i now wear a waist cincher to keep my curves. I would live to eventually go back for some leg & back Lipo and a BBL. I can't believe my before & after pics though!!!! It's crazy what a great job Dr. ROBLES does at sculpting the body.

Open area in the middle of my incision is finally healed amd closed!

Well tomorrow will be 2 weeks po and I have to say I am feeling 100% better. I still have alot of swelling in my lower stomach and have noticed knots & hard spots in my sides & armpits. But I guess the biggest problem I have now is that the middle of my incision is not healing well & has actually opened up& appears to have some necrosis. After looking at my pictures from PO day 2 it looks like this was a problem spot from the start. Maybe a hematoma that blocked the blood supply to my incision. I just pray it does not get any bigger & heals from here on out. I'm using silvadene crm on the necrotic parts to hopefully help heal & debride it. My belly button lost the scab, but now has a whitish thick area at the bottom. Its not drainage or puss snd its as thick as skin.... not sure what it is. Also, when cleaning my belly button w/ a qtip I noticed it is very deep-not sure if anyone else's is like that.....
