I just turned 40 and have been waiting a long time to have this done. TT w/lipo on flanks and back, MR and Fat transfer to butt. After three kids and a complete hysterectomy my stomach is not the same. I have tried exercise and diet, but the bloat from the muscle separation won't go away nor will the stretched out skin. I can't wait to have my pre-baby shape back.

Surgery went great! No drain tubes and the pain is minimal. Mostly pain in my lower back from the lipo.

I'm excited to finally have the extra skin gone! I'm know I'm only 1w/po but I feel so large and bloated all day. I am super excited that my dr did my scar as low as he do to be able to wear these panties????. I hope the bloating goes away soon to see my waist and butt shape.

Looking good! You already have great shape at your waist! :) The lower back swelling from lipo takes quite a while to resolve, so be patient. I'm sure you are, but stay away from salty stuff or other stuff likely to "bloat" you!
