I'm 56, had one child by c-section and have yo-yo'd with 35 lbs, up & down since high school. I'm 5'6" & weigh 155. From 2011-2013, I stayed under 130, with vigorous, daily exercise. I'm ready to have a mini tummy tuck, with lipo to my back, waist, upper & lower abdomen, & inner & outer thighs, with fat grafting to the outer thigh crease. My pre-op exam & labs have been completed this week. I will be off work for a week. Dr Khoobehi did my face & neck lift, this past March. I'm excited to have my hour glass figure back, without cramming the fat into spandex!!

I am so sorry. I'm going to look at your posting. Did you discuss this with your PS? I had a few issues with my face/ neck that we had resolved. Tell me what happened?

I'm 2 weeks post op today. So far it's been ok. I did have a seroma aspirated on Monday on the left side of my abdomen. I go back to To have it checked tomorrow. I also went through round 1 of the endermologie on Monday. Worst thing I've ever been through!! My inner thighs are so bruised & my back feels like I've had the shut beat out of me.

During your pre op, you need to have the pain mgt discussion with your PS. My dr is wonderful. Had I known I was going to be so miserable after the endermologie, I would of asked for another Rx for percocet. I will see him at noon tomorrow. If you are pain sensitive, make sure you have some good support at home. The first few days suck & you have to get up & move around. The pain meds help. Wear a shirt gown that is stretchy & silky feeling. This makes it easy to slide around in bed.if it's too loose, it will wrap up under you when you are trying to shift & turn. Plenty of soft & cheap body pillows. It's so not fun, but the TT is not different from c-sections. The lipo is really painful & I had it done in multiple places. Then the endermologie is awful. Its suppose to break up any scar tissue from the lipo. Ask your PS if that's part of his treatment plan.
Good luck with everything and please post updates for us. Do you think a week off work will be enough for you? Do you have the option to extend that if needed?
I am going to keep the positive thoughts coming your way that the one week will work for you. You really just never know, you could feel wonderful a week out. Mind over pain:)
