Final result of scar 2 years on

needtoknow01
WORTH IT
As promised to many I have put my final scar quality up so you can see the ultimate result as it takes a long time . It has been two years now so I recon this is the final result and one I am over the moon with it. It is very flat and can by hidden by even the skimpiest of bikinis.I have a new lease of life at almost 60. Im proud to be seen on any beach .

I am nearly 11 months post lower body lift and my scars are still quiet red which I would expect. I am still experiencing some pain along the scar at the back and in the area above my belly button. Nothing major just annoying. Hoping my end result will look as good as you do. I was 64 when I had it done. Wish I had done it years ago.

You are looking great! I love how people post how they are doing so many months down the road! I think it helps everyone else who is either healing or deciding to do these procedures!

Thankyou for your interest. Im very pleased with the whole thing and how easy I actually found it in comparison with what I expected. Im so glad I chose the right surgeon. He was perfect in all ways as was the rest of his team. I would highly recommend them.

You look fantastic. I just had my procedure by Dr Quaba. I'm 10 days postop and your review has helped me on what to expect. Thanks for sharing

Im sure you will have as good a result as I had. He is a very skilled man and I attribute my trouble free healing to way he completed the process. I assume you had no drains too and that helps a lot. Not having to wear a compression garment also helps. I wore a pair of tights a few weeks after and they cut is as the day went on and I swelled a bit. It was agony so I can only imagine what a compression garment would have felt like. I now wear tight that come right up to the bottom of my bra and find they are a great discovery as they dont cut in. Hope to see your photos in due course.

Fit of Low cut high leg knickers

needtoknow01
Hi All. Just an update to let you see the fit of Low cut high leg knickers as its very important to get the cut in the line of your preferred knicker style. After all more people see you with your knickers on than off. I prefer high cut brazilan type which are very low in the front but not too thin at the side even though they are very high cut. I am so happy the scar is not seen at all with the new knickers I have chosen. Still have a little swelling at the front below the belly button but it is going down. Away now to have a knicker buying spree now that I know the style works well.

Wow! Looking at your "before" pics, I thought I was looking at myself! I think you're my body double.

I had a TT in June 2015 but I had drains for almost a month. And then my tummy swelled up for weeks afterwards.

I just had a lower body lift a week ago to get rid of excess skin in my hip area (love handles that developed after the TT). You can read my posts if you're interested.

Anyway, just wanted to tell you that you look fabulous! Your scar is so much better looking than mine. Are drainless TT the norm in England? What was that blue stuff under the mesh thing in some of your pics? I wish I had gotten lipo in my mons too. Didn't think if mentioning it to my doctor. In some tight clothes, I look like a Ken doll. Oh, well. That's what spanx are for.

Thanks for sharing your story.
