9 mos PO pt 3 (last 9 mos PO update)

Also going to include an updated photo of my stomach. Yes, that is all skin and yes the crease between my legs is right above my mons area where the incision line is. It folds all the way down the center of my mons (this did NOT happen before surgery.) Since having my TT with Basner my problem areas of loose skin have only gotten worse. To date I still have not gained or lost any weight.

9 mo PO Part 2

Finally mustered up the courage to take a picture of my back side. As you can see, I have an eye-sore right above the crease of my buttocks where I had an opening on my incision line (1 of 3.) My buttocks crease actually ends where the blue mark is at the top, so not only has it sagged but it is as if part of my crease is missing! I also have a hard lump on the scar on my crease/lower back that was not there prior to surgery that recently was very noticeable within the last couple months (found it after Dr Basner told me to go to another surgeon, so calling in did not/does not seem like an option anyway since he refused to acknowledge the other problem areas. I am unsure what it is, but plan on asking with a new PS at my upcoming consult.) My buttocks, buttocks crease, and openings were all concerns brought up, and I was constantly assured that it would look more normal with the coined term of "trust the process." at this point, I don't see how it is fixabled other than through another surgery, but I have not had my consult yet to look into this issue. I am just hoping that it can and is fixable and I am not stuck like this! My tailbone is constantly sore when sitting for extended periods of time, and this was not an issue prior to surgery. These are the results of my lower back lift. My backside is now flatter than my stomach. Again, these are results Basner insisted were perfect and website worthy of showing off. I have also included two areas that opened up on each hip and how those scars have healed.

9 months PO

Stomach has continued to deform, and I have rippling in the mons area that has only gotten worse. At this point, I am living in shapewear to avoid further rashes of skin rubbing together. Breast implants have continued to drop further and have spread further apart. I am currently taking Tylenol to alleviate pain and have come to another road block of no bra cup fitting. Thankfully, sports bras can stretch and I have something. Fingers crossed that I will find the right surgeon soon to fix this.
