Almost 2 yrs since my TT
WORTH IT$5,400
So it's been almost 2 years since my TT. Since then I had Lipo to my flanks about 1 yr ago. It helped to give me more confidence that my TT decisions was a good one. I have been working out and cutting carbs/sugars/ and dairy. I feel like I gained weight in my thighs/butt since the TT surgery and had to work at it to get back to myself. Finally I am almost there! After 2 years I will say that i am happy with the decision to have it done. I have one photo, hopefully it shows where I am today! Hope all the people who supported me on here are doing well :)

Almost one year since TT
Hi! I haven't been on in a long time, but it's almost 1 yr since my TT. I am happy in a way with the results. I feel I still have some extra skin, and my flanks needed and still do need Lipo. I have noticed that one bad food, ice cream, pizza, etc will cause my tummy to bloat so I have been eating clean for the past few months.
Recently I went to a different PS to ask him about Lipo to my flanks and my bra roll area and decided I am going to do it, so hopefully within the next few week I will undergo that. He does it in office which makes me less nervous. Well hope all is well with my reals elf friends! Here are a few photos that I snapped quickly :)

You had your TT done just after I had my revision just over a year ago. I think some surgeons tend to be a bit more conservative than others and are afraid to tighten the skin too much due to the risk of the scar opening up or creating a hypertrophic scar. Even after my second tuck I still have some rolls when sitting but when I stand up I'm pretty tight. My skin continues to loosen up and there's nothing I can do about it. Good luck with your upcoming lipo.

This surgeon is excellent! I just had 2 friends go to him, one for tummy tuck with MR, Lipo on flanks, as well as breast lift and implants! Looks fab! Other had Lipo and breast lift... He is doing it most to my flanks, as well as the back fat area... I will mention this to him though to see what hecthinks about my skin elasticity! Hope your doing well, you look great! :)

The younger a person is, the better their skin elasticity. You might very well be a great candidate and have great results. Good luck!!

Thank you! Fingers crossed! They just fit me in for June 18th so it's a month away! Can't wait to hopefully be ready for mid summer. I feel like I lost most of last summer and now again!

I forgot to mention in my previous comment that I hope you have good skin elasticity because if you don't you may end up with wrinkles and dimples in those areas where you will be having the liposuction. Liposuction left my upper abdomen looking very aged. Also it's difficult to get totally symmetrical results as the surgeon can't actually see the areas being suctioned. It's a tricky procedure, one that you would want a a very skilled surgeon to be doing.

Hi- in your initial tummy tuck, did you get muscle repair done ? I had both TT and MR done. I am happy with my results even after a few weeks despite how it takes months bc of swell-hell.
