5 months after first TT and 4 weeks after the second one, here is the photo.
Once again Thank youDecember 3, 2013
I think my issues have been resolved - I hope my story helps one person avoid the horrific disfigurement of Smart Lipo. I've suffered two Full TTs and have lost five months of my life having to rest.

I had the same issues, it's been 2 1/2 years . My skin looks like your, however I have a hard lump on one side of my abdomen, and small lumps throughout. I can feel my scare tissue. I went with another doctor who told me that he felt my skin would not survive a TT, so we did a fat transplant however that didn't work. I feel that I should another consultation. It's been a nightmare your always afraid some will see it. I'm very happy for, I hope someday to feel the same.

WOW! You have been through so much, I am so sorry. I wish more people would understand the real complications with liposuction. I hope this time around you heal well :) Best wishes to you

5 days PO from SECOND FULL TT which I had to have just three months after the first full TT b/c my burnt skin did not heal prope
Once again Thank youNovember 12, 2013
I had to have a second Full TT b/c my skin would not heal and I developed a large seroma with thick scar tissue. I am now just 5 days out. I'm in a lot of pain but the results seem good so far. Because of what happened the first time, I have two drains in which won't be removed til Friday (God willing). So, again, I cannot warn women enough times NOT to get SL. It's a bad procedure.

You look a lot happier and you look great too. I will pray for you that all goes well this time out.

TY Tess . . . I can't believe I'm starting recovery all over. ;)
November 13, 2013
Trust me I understand . Do everything the doctor tell you to do and rest. But you look so much happier in your picture .

I'm not allowed any activity but a lil bit of walking at this time.
November 13, 2013
That's what helped me the most was walking it wasn't fast but i did . Plus it felt good too
November 13, 2013
Yes but you realize that I've been "resting" and limited to walking since July - I'm ready for Yoga, the gym, riding my horses again, etc.
November 13, 2013
It will come and you are not heavy so that's a plus on your side. Can you just take your horse out for a walk ?
November 13, 2013
Um, I have 50+ horses and no, I cannot take them on a walk - most of them are weanlings or yearlings. ;D
November 13, 2013
Wow that's a lot well I will pray for u to have a safe and speedy recovery .

Since I found out about your bad experience with Safelipo I did some research and I discovered its usually reccomended for isolated fat deposits and to help when skin has lost its elasticity. I didn't see any pictures of you before your mishap with safelipo. Did you need a lot of lipo? I hope you don't get offended that I ask. Im just kind of worried since I had Safelipo as well.
November 13, 2013
No Jen. If you read my review, I was clear abt the condition of my body prior to the procedure. I've always been athletic and fit.
November 13, 2013
That's right. Sorry, I read it yesterday along with many others. lol Just had to ask.

I am SO sorry you had to go through all this. I am 41 and two months out from my Smart Lipo, I have the same concerns around the texture of the skin. It seems to get a little better with time but of course I am worried, especially after reading your comments. Did you ever do Smooth Shapes (they told me this is procedure for smoothing cellulite) on your stomach? Or Exilis ( to tighten skin)? Any advice you can give during this phase?
November 30, 2013
I am so sorry you had to go through all this. I am 41 and two months post Smart Lipo and experiencing the same uneven bumpy texture on my stomach. Did you ever do the Smooth Shapes ( this is what they told me to do, gets rid of cellulite supposedly) on your stomach or Exilis ( to tighten)? What advice/suggestions do you have? You are looking great BTW !
November 30, 2013
Nothing will smooth it out - don't waste your money. I will post new photos this week when I get my stitches out.
