I can tell The Center for Cosmetic Surgery hires only top notch staff, my nurses were so good to me. I am 5 days post op, I am sore and tired, but overall doing well. I weighed 190 going in. I have not weighed myself and will not until my 1st checkup next week. I had TT, lipo to flanks and BA. I chose 380cc and I am very happy with my decision. I am lucky to have my hubby home with me all week and family staying with me next week. First, the pain is real. When I got out of surgery and the day after were tough. The pain is worse than a c-section.

Feeling good, tired, but so happy I did it. My stomach was so distended, I was embarrassed everyday. It was difficult to find under garments to hold in such a big belly. This will change so much for me and my family. I can wrap my arms around my children and their tiny heads and arms aren’t stopped by my belly I can fully embrace them and pull them in for hugs.

So happy for you, I am two weeks out from a 360 smart lipo. At the end of the month I will have boobs and thighs done. Pray for me. You look great!

A little more info. .
I am swollen, I get around fine. I do minor chores, wipe things down, prep dinners with assistance from my super helpful mom. My back hurts and I have to sit down for a while throughout the day. My binder helps and walking upright, it hurts more if I walk bent forward. My breasts have not given me any issues or pain since the first couple days when they were sore. They are still high and need to settle. Stool softeners have helped, but I am 3 days no movement and will take a laxative tomorrow if nothing in the morning. I will update with new pics tomorrow.

Thank you for sharing! I had 3 kids and my stomach looks exactly like yours! Did they end up using mesh to reinforce your abdominal wall?

They did not, they did not even bring up Meg as an option, however, I had read about it. He definitely pulled these muscles tight, my hope is that everything stays that way long term. I am so sorry you have the same issue! It is 3 big babies that changed my tummy too.

Hi friend! I looked at your posts and you and I have very similar situations. I am not a doctor obviously, but I can tell you from my experience that you are a good candidate for the surgery. There was never any mention of mesh and as you see my belly was large and I had umbilical hernia. I am so happy I did this, despite the pain. The thought of living forever with my giant belly just didn't seem like an option. I think you should get some consults, my surgeon was amazing with me and even being 190lbs never brought up losing weight. I feel very body proportionate now. Let me know if you have more questions, I would be happy to chat with you, I know what you are going through. Lots of hugs!!!

Thank you for the reply! Interesting that some Dr suggest mesh and others don't it seems. I would rather avoid foreign objects in the body if I can.
