Hi, Monie...I didn't get it yet. I'm working out more and my results are looking good. I think the 6 pack that I want is going to come from strength training and cardio...but it's definitely not out the pic of getting. I'll keep you posted and thanks for asking...

I'm 4 months POST-OP and I'm falling into depression. My upper abs are still bulging and I spoke with my PS about it and he said that he didn't LIPO my upper abs. Is that not apart of a full tummy tuck with LIPO. I'm VERY, VERY UPSET AND I'm TIRED OF CRYING ABOUT IT!!! It makes my body look weird and I'm really to have Dr. Moody to do what needs to be done on me.

Hey there. My heart goes out to you. Did your contract state, " Lipo of upper abs with TT?" The contract will show exactly what he was supposed to do. You mentioned Dr. Moody was to Lipo your arms and bra roll. Didn't he notice the swelling on your upper and during your consultation? Has anything changed in your diet? I know that if I consumed salty foods, I tend to swell easily. In fact, one look at my ankles will give it away. Can you get SL of your upper abs alone, how much will it cost, and how soon can you get it done? It should be less than $1000 since it's 1 area. See if your PS has a promotion or can offer you a deal. Get some answers to these questions and take the next step. I hope it all ends well in your favor :-)

Yes, Dr. Moody said he could do that area, no problem...you would think that your PS would tell you that this area needs to be done as well...

Hey, FTA...I checked my contract again and it didn't state upper ABS...when I heard him say Lipo, I was thinking that he would hv done that n better yet Stevie Wonder knew could see it needed to be done. Better now and will be going to Dr. Moody in October...I'm waiting for my scar tissue to mature more...I feel much better and you know all things in life is a learning experience. I'm not totally unhappy with my TT, I just know with the Lipo it could have looked 100% better. Dr. Moody will hook me up and I still look great now just wished he would have said your upper abs need doing to give you the results you want...PRAISING GOD STILL!!!

I'm starting to think I was PMSing...I love my results but ppl were asking me did I get Lipo in my upper abs n I was thinking I did bc we spoke of it but it was flanks only...I'm ok n my boyfriend told me to calm down bc the doctor did a great job n to stop listening to ppl who can't even afford the procedure...my job is stressing me out too...

Hi! @covergrl1 I have the same upper bulge as you.. do you have pain & discomfort in that area? I have pain & cannot walk straight & I think its due to the bulge.. would love to know your thoughts & what your PS says why you have the bulge. thankx

I think your abs look great and i do not see a bulge. But i understand you know what your body should look like or what you expect it to look like. I am glad you're seeing a new ps for your revision. Best of luck.

I've decided to use Dr. Moody for my bra roll and arms. I meet with him on 6.5.14 and was quoted $1800 for bra roll and arms and he said if there's something else needing a touch up (small) area he would throw it in...His work is amazing and he's very pleasant. After meeting with him and leaving a down payment, I'm FINDING OUT my PS now does SMART LIPO...Dr. Moody is great, so there shouldn't be any issues...
