33 Year Old Mom of 2, Lost 140 Pounds and Have Finished 3 Ironman Triathlons, Not a Good Tummy Tuck

Today my tummy tuck revision was scheduled for February 22nd. That is step 1 of 2. I found out my insurance actually approve a full lower body lift, my surgeon just prefers to do them in 2 surgeries. So 6-8 weeks after the tummy tuck revision he will be doing the back as well. I am so happy that this nightmare will be over and I have faith everything will look great in the end.

Wow, I'm speechless, I got exactly what I wanted for Christmas, my insurance is going to pay for my revision! I have to wait until at least mid February as my new surgeon wants to wait until I am 6 months post op from original procedure. But I am so grateful and thrilled

My insurance covered a consult with another plastic surgeon who agreed too much extra skin was left and that it could look much better. My new surgeon is not only board certified, but even certified by the American Society of Bariatric Plastic Surgeons, which is something I should have looked for the first time around. He took the time to answer all my question, and explain everything, and I had a really good feeling about him. He has worked with many massive weight loss patients. My first surgeon gave me a bit of an unsure feeling from the beginning, which I should have trusted my gut and ran. He will not do the revision until at least February so I have awhile to wait. My insurance covered my initial botch job and we are unsure if they will cover the revision, we'll just have to wait and see. If not I will be self pay, as I am very unhappy with how I look right now
