Great staff to work with - really makes sure we are on the same page!

I have had zero pain with this tummy tuck! Took my meds as told for the first three days then just Tylenol. I didn’t need a few items that were recommended on this site, so I will list what I did need!
- Heating pad - was really cold after and my back was achy from recliner.
- Metamucil with softener - Started taking this two days prior to surgery and it helped immensely going to the bathroom when needed! You cannot use your abs to push.
- gauze pads 2x2 ( Self adhesive is best) or tape
- shower chair (borrowed from senior center)
- recliner ( motorized is best because you can’t push the arm up and down) no strength And again you can’t use your abs!
- Tylenol

That’s it! Let me know if you have any questions I would love to help people prior I did so much research.
Also I highly recommend asking the Dr. To Mark with a sharpie on your binder for stomach, that they give you & put on you after surgery to show how tight it should be! As you can see the red marks on my stomach I was putting it on way too tight, almost like a corset I had no idea.

I had a tummy tuck with Lipo to the flanks and breast removal /inserted new along with Lipo to fatty tissue under arms and fixed two hernias. This was done by Dr Tracy Kayan , she is down to earth, really cares, listens, and really makes sure we are in the same page! I did come up with more questions along the way, texted asking, all were answered! Great staff to work with - of which all are female.
