Thrilled is an understatement.
This pic is taken in the morning when my body is less swollen but is a positive indication of what the end result will be like (better!!)

Great results! Doss you have your survey with Mr Tyler? I am seeing him too..what was your experience?

Mr Tyler is fantastic! I honestly wouldn't recommend anyone else, he's very on the ball with everything, listens to what you want and you work together to get the best result possible. The care in the Shelburne hospital is outstanding too :) good luck

Amazing! Would love to keep in touch! There's a Facebook group called "tummy tucks & plastics uk & abroad surgery" very supportive full of people pre and post op. I've found it very helpful :) [RS bleep]

Your stomach looks great, wow. May I ask how long did you have the tightness on the lower part of your abdomen? My area is so tight/hard but I am still having my massages done. Just wondering when I will begin to see my silhouette.

Hi darling!
I noticed it starting to reduce after about 3 weeks. It still swells after a busier day but I find very gentle lymphatic massage helps. I also drink aloe Vera gel which helps to cleanse the system and reduce fluid retention.
Swelling is all part of the healing process though so you do need to let it run its course. If you are worried about anything though I'd recommend contacting your surgeon

Thank you for responding, I will give more time as this I already know (considering I had a bbl a year ago), lol.

Hi
You look amazing. How was the recovery. Im nervous about pain, healing etc
December 27, 2016
Hello lovely. Recovery was great. I had a small pocket of fluid above my belly button which mr T sorted as soon as he saw it. I'm back exercising (low impact) now and really enjoying my new tummy.
Pain management is just fine - the hospital staff really keep on top of this. Healing takes time, and it depends on your body/diet etc. Make sure you eat plenty of protein. I also drink aloe Vera gel (forever living is the best) which is fantastic for healing.
Are you having your surgery with Mr Tyler? xx

I was lucky enough not to need lipo or Muscle repair.
Definitely organise a consultation with Mr Tyler. I would thoroughly recommend him! Honestly I couldn't have asked for a more conscientious surgeon. He answered all of my questions with no hesitation and made me feel totally at ease. The care at the the Shelburne (where he operates) is outstanding too!
Mr Tyler does a lot of reconstructive surgery and would be a great second opinion in respect of your BA/BL. He won't mess you around, and he'll give you the advice you need to hear, instead of what he thinks you want to hear - he'll always endeavour to meet your expectations but will also be very clear if he cant.
Good luck and let me know how you get on! :) x
