Thank you for joining us.  You are going to love the results.  You gotta love that menopause, not!

Do you have all of the arrangements made for recovery?

April 3, 2016
No has not set in yet. I plan to take the entire month of July to recuperate. Hope my recovery is not too painful. I am using Exparil, suppose to help with the pain.

A month off will be perfect!  No point in rushing this process.

Having second thoughts about having tummy tuck and breast lift. I am so scared of complications like fat necrosis, seromas etc.., my plastic surgeon is Dr Tehrani in great neck NY

Just remember there are risks to everything seroma a are usually mild. I had progressive tension tummy tuck which means no drains. I also rented a new power lift chair I say new because you don't want a old one it saved me don't worry I was 46 now 7 months later. It was difficult I won't sugar coat it but I had 2 hernias full tummy tuck with huge separated muscles the front didn't hurt that much but my back killed from pulling the muscles together but it's a must I don't regret it at all Say to yourself ' I need to do this for me and me alone'
