Almost 7 months po- Breast Lift Plus Full Tummy Tuck. - Los Angeles, CA

Hi girls. Changing my rating to worth it. It's been a long haul. Don't love my boobs but they are definitely better than before. After the swelling has gone down they hang down just as before. But my nipple is in a better place. My skin just sucks and I have a lot of stretch marks so I don't think there is anything that could have been done about that. My tummy looks good. Not sure if I still have swelling or not. I've always had a pooch (even before kids) so that could just be a permanent thing. My scar is disappearing nicely. I only use Vaseline on it, and even that is sporadic. I do have a couple of tiny dog ears and there is one small spot on my bb that I may go on to have him just slightly correct. We'll see. I'll try to update more thoroughly soon. Thank you for all of your kind words to help me get through my rough period. I didn't respond but I was reading them and they definitely made me feel some degree of comfort. xoxo

I am changing my review to not worth it today. This has been really hard for me and I do not think I was emotionally ready to have the surgery and the resulting scars and issues. I was expecting perfection, even though logically I knew that was not possible. My stomach skin is not taut like it was at first. It used to be very saggy below my belly button and now it is saggy everywhere but there. I have a lot of looseness when I am sitting or bending over. My breasts are not as high as I was hoping they would be, although I do love that my nipples are perky. My husband is upset with me because even though we spent $18k on the surgery I still have low self-esteem and am extremely insecure. It doesn't help that he was thinking my boobs would be round like they get with an implant, even though I told him and showed him pictures of just a lift. I guess he just figured I had enough breast tissue to make it happen anyway. But as a result I feel like he is disappointed, even though he says I look better now than before. See? I have issues. It makes me feel physically sick to think that we spent so much money on this and yet I am so unhappy. I don't honestly know if there was anything else the doctor could have done or if this is just the way my body healed. I haven't taken pictures in awhile. Honestly I just feel too depressed to post anyway.

Hey ladies. Not too much has changed. My pain is a lot better in my stomach, my breasts are bothering me a bit more than they were before. Or maybe they're the same and since my tummy's not as bad the breasts just feel worse. lol My scars are more red than they were before. I have realized that this surgery is not a cure all.

It's been a long day... I wanted to post more but I waited too long I think. I am emotionally drained and think I just need to go to sleep. I'll try to update tomorrow or the next day, although I don't know if anyone even thinks these posts are helpful! Goodnight y'all.
