I truly disliked my tummy prior to my decision to get a tummy tuck. My ex husband would make me feel it's ok when it was not. I needed to get myself together again so I am glad I got a tummy tuck the doctor and his staff where great. I am only 6 days post op Still swollen can't wait to see it in a few more weeks cause I like my results so far minus the swelling.

Still love my tummy but hate the dark line under my navel which they say will go away with time along with the swelling but other than that so far so good.

You look amazing!! And FYI I had the same odd dark line under my navel as well! It was the weirdest thing but at six weeks it's gone, I was worried though. As for swelling I still swell everyday, it took some work but I've just trained my mind to accept it is part of the process. Thank God this time I didn't have lipo though because that kind of swelling seems to be really persistent. You'll be great!

Thank you so much I am so glad you understand about the dark line its almost week 4 and it's pretty much gone. You look amazing as well I do have a question for you when is a good time to easy back into working out? Yes the lipo swelling is the hardest I don't have much swelling from the actual tummy tuck just the lipo portion of it. Anyways thanks for the kind words take care

Thanks I know I am very late responding to you but my line never went away I had to get a tattoo to cover it up.
Be patient with the recovery process, it does take time but you will soon get there. Â Better days and no swelling are in the near future. Â Thank you for joining us.
You are welcome, hang in there girlie!
