Necrosis Lower Body Lift

For what it’s worth, I want to emphasize that my doctor did nothing wrong. This was unfortunately a risk with this surgery, and I was the “lucky one.” There is a blessing in everything, and Dr. Clark is my blessing. The area in the triangle has a lower blood supply. When the skin is lifted all the way to the breastbone, the rectus abdominal muscles are repaired, and then the skin is pulled down and cut off, that’s a lot to an area that has a lower blood supply. Dr. Clark made absolutely sure that I was her number 1 priority. My intent was to let people know that she’s an excellent surgeon and very caring. Her kindness and skill are top notch. I just really wanted everyone out there to understand that you can get through this no matter how terrifying it is. I couldn’t be happier with my doctor, and I will definitely move forward with the other areas to fix when I can. With any surgery, there is a risk. I was just glad that Dr. Clark got me through the necrosis as if it never occurred. I am thrilled with my results. She is an excellent surgeon.

After proofreading, I found many spelling errors. I was typing on my cell phone when I added the pics today. It cuts off letters when I was typing. Sorry.

I’m finally on the other side and healing well! The Necrosis is gone. I feel Blessed that I’m healing so well. The “Christmas Tree” like shading is history. The scar is gone like it never existed! All I can say is that I’m ecstatically happy. My tummy looks so good. I was worried. I’m a Nervous Nellie! Last time I talked with Dr. Clark about a month ago, she stated that she knew everything would be okay. I just couldn’t imagine it when this all began. Even my primary physician said she did a phenomenal job. He was thoroughly impressed. He saw the scar before and after. I did some research on complications after this surgery, and they do occur. Not everyone puts it out there. We don’t always see the complications. I decided to do this review, because I’m living proof that you can come out on the other side. Pick your doctor well. Research like crazy. All I can say is run to Dr. Clark. She’s the best. I can’t wait to fix the other areas of loose skin on my body. If I could give any advice, it would be to watch the bruising after the body lift. It came on so fast!!! I hope my back looks normal again after J lift. My spinal injuries plus the loose skin make it look strange. My legs are next when I can afford to move forward. Then, onto the J lift, brachioplasty, and Breast lift with small implants. Thank you to Dr. Clark and her staff! You will be forever adored. I also wanted to give a special shout out to Rose and Audri. They were very there for me and very emotionally supportive. I hope my story encourages someone out there who is going through this. It took a lot for me to post these pictures, because I am so private, but Real Self helped me. I’m paying it forward. Blessings!!!
