WORTH IT$7,600
Its been six weeks since I converted my mini tummy tuck into a full tummy tuck and it was worth every penny of it. I am very very happy with my results. I am as flat as a board and I hear it will only get better. I was so impressed with the new PS I chose to do my full tummy tuck. So much more informative and does things so differently from the PS that did my mini. One week after my full TT I had the drains removed and was told I could start massaging the areas. Week 2 after my surgery my 4 sutures were remove, Glue was used to close my incision all except the 4 sutures. I was told I could use the exercise ball to roll over my back and stomach. I was also told at week 3 to start using maderma. Week 4 I was start on a silcone gel strip to be worn over my scar for 12 hours a day. The binder I am wearing goes from below my breast to mid thigh. All of this is new to me since when I had the mini tummy tuck I was told none of this. I did wear a binder but it was waist only and velcroed shut, very flimsey. I have attached pictures from today...

It's 4 days since my surgery and so far so good. What a difference another surgeon can make all the way around. I spent one night at the surgery center very well worth it. My surgeron injects a 3 day numbing medicine and wow it really works. When I had my mini TT back in July from a different surgeon I was more sore sooner. Hopefully I can post some pics this weekend,.

Good luck tomorrow! Even though its easier said then done try not to be nervous. I was so nervous and now thinking back i laugh at myself. I was uncomfortable after surgery but had no real pain. You will see how fast time goes by too. Can't wait to hear your po story and pictures.
