8 months post-op and look worse than before - Planning revision tt this fall
I finally scheduled my tt for Oct 30th. I'm also...
I finally scheduled my tt for Oct 30th. I'm also having chin liposuction (on 9/5). I lost about 100 lbs three years ago and have a huge roll of skin around my abdomen. I would wear jeans several sizes smaller if it wasn't for the excess skin. I am irritated that I worked so hard to lose so much weight and still don't feel confident with how I look. So...my 40th bday present to myself is a tt and chin liposuction (losing weight didn't reduce my chin at all). I am so excited! I am having an extensive tt. The incision will go from the middle of each hip on my back and all the way around the front. Since it is so extensive, they are requiring an overnight hospital stay for pain control. I'm not too concerned about the pain afterwards - I've had several MAJOR surgeries in the past 8 years, so I'm familiar with postop pain. But I am concerned about the swelling and how long that will last. I'm also concerned about possible hematomas. But I'm more excited than anything :-)
