Tummy Tuck & Lipo- Beyond the Best! - Minneapolis, MN

I'm a 37 yr-old mom of a 17 and 15 yr-old... both kids were C-sections and I gained a substantial amount of weight with both pregnancies and had the scars/ skin to prove it. I've always hated the way my clothes fit with the lower gut that just refused to part with me. I wore out TONS of running shoes trying to run off the well-known "muffin top". I finally decided to have a tummy tuck with lipo on my back fat (which totally creeped up behind me!!) I'll be 4 weeks post-op this Thursday and I couldn't be happier. Was it painful? YES. Is it bearable? with a great doctor- YOU BET! Is it worth it? ABSOLUTELY! Even within this short amount of time, I look in the mirror and can't believe that's me! I wonder how long before I stop pulling on my shirts to stretch them out where my gut used to be-- hard habit to break! P.S... I've never said this before but I can't wait for swimsuit season!
