In order to feel better about myself and have a better productive life I needed the tummy tuck. The Lip was all optional but after speeking with Dr., we decided it would be best to also add lip to the hips and back to make everything match. Also, I added lip to the neck since it would be cheapest to do it at the same time.

Thank you so much for sharing your opinion about your doctor.

I would love to add your experience to the Tummy Tuck community, but it would be helpful if you could provide some more detail about your experience with your procedure/treatment. I suggest adding before and after photos - optional of course, so that other community members can use your review as a guide throughout their journey.

I have had no time to put up before and after pics or updates. I actually would like to get pics from my Dr and repost them, I don't have any good ones.
I will take pics of my body and post here by tomorrow.

TT - Stomach is flat however I do not like the scar... yet. It sticks out a bit too much for my liking and I hope it will still heal more.

Chin/Neck - Lipo of this area bruised real bad for about two weeks and now all bruising is gone. I still have lumps in my neck that I massage every day for a little bit. I wear my head wrap as much as I can day and night still. I only have to wear at night time now but I try to wear it when I'm in the house at all times.

Back/Hips - My back looks awesome, can't really tell the hips look any better but he had to do that area for my tummy tuck to look normal.

Overall - VERY happy with results and would def recommend.
I feel pretty normal, can walk up right much better now, however, after I sit for an extended period of time when I get up I am a bit bent over because I guess the skin retightens or something. Still feel a little pain in the middle of my tummy but nothing I can't handle and I know it will eventually all subside.

Questions - Wondering when my neck swelling will become normal, I hope these bumps/balls under my skin will subside.

Next appointment with Dr. is Jan 15th.

This was day of my surgery, Dr came in, we discussed a little more and he drew on me. I was not nervous at all but just anticipating the results and told him to do what he needed to do in order to get me the best results. Actually, the only thing I was nervous about was getting lipo on my neck, that just freaked me out.
