34 YO Mum of 2 Fed Up of Frumpy Post Pregnancy Body. Manchester, GB

Hiya,

Just checking in 6 months on to post pictures of results. I've been absolutely fine. Belly button lookIng much better but is really small, I think it just healed too much really, I'm told it will relax over time so it's just a waiting game. I'm much happier than I was with it now though. I'm going back in a few weeks to have little skin tags removed at each end of scar and some fluid/fat deposits taken out. It's a minor op and if all goes to plan I will be happy and feel like it's been a journey worth while. Sorry all photos have uploaded upside down!!

This is what my belly button decided to do its self- apparently called over granulation!!! The creases are just where the tape has been.

Well 7 weeks tomorrow and not really much to report. Recovery has been great with no hiccups really except my belly button slightly over healed which had to be cut but all very minor stuff. My lipo areas still hurt to sleep on and I think are still swollen or should I say I hope as I don't look any different!! I'm happy with my boobs and the position of my TT scar but am really holding my breath on the belly button front as I've only got the bottom half as you'll see in the picture it's cut in a half circle shape. I see what the thinking is behind it as its meant to form a hood but I've never seen one like this before and don't see how it's gonna end up looking like a proper circle one that everyone else has :( I asked my surgeon and he said he hasn't done anything different to anyone else's. At this moment I'm struggling to keep the faith with that bit if I'm honest but I guess that's where you just have to put your worries to the back of your mind and trust the professional you chose. I'll upload pics now and let you see for yourselves oh and Ive still got the little skin tags on each side which should flatten out to nothing in time [RS bleep]
