Hi everyone. Just from my picture I'm sure you can all easily guess the procedure I am on this site for.
I am a 48 yr old lady with two teenage daughters. After their births, I experienced the problems of most women with very loose skin.
I know I definitely won't have any more kids so it's time to get rid of my excess belly.

It has been on my mind to do this since way back when but I always put my priority is elsewhere. Well now I've decided it's about me. My stomach has been my my priority is elsewhere. Well now I've decided it's about me. My stomach has been my shame for years now and it has greatly marred my confidence, especially when I am clad in and it has greatly marred my confidence, especially when I am dressed to the nines. I always find myself placing a clutch bag, or holding a glass of wine over it to hide the spare tyres. Well I've decided enough is enough and I am scheduled to see Dr Adrian Richards on Mon June 1st for a TT consultation. I will update after my appointment!!

Just a quick update guys. You can see my initial appointment with Dr Richards was scheduled for June 1st. However, I decided to reschedule the appointment so as to squeeze in a couple more with two other surgeries on the same day. So I shall be visiting MYA as well on July 6th. I really want to make sure that I have done my research properly beforehand so that I get the right surgeon.

Good luck with your research. I went with spire as they were local to me and researched each surgeon. Had a choice of 6 and went with my gut instinct, choosing one who does a lot of reconstruction surgery on NHS aswell as private work.
Glad it all done and although swelling is my main problem it really wasn't anywhere as bad I thought it would be x

Awwww thanks for that Karen 572. I have to say I'm super excited about the whole TT adventure. I have a few appointments on Monday at Harley Street and have a few appointments on Monday at Harley Street and will be in Manchester next month to see Dr James Murphy. if you don't mind me asking, which Dr did you go with at Spire?
