Scars (pre revision)
Just scars...
Not sure why my body reacted this way. Looking into a scar revision to see if some of it can be fixed!

My revision scars healed exactly the same way that the originals in the same area healed so I would urge you to choose an area that is most important to u before u jump in and have all brand new insiscions to care fore again....all scars will fade over time.....did you expose them to sun? I know the TT looks like delayed heeling due to spitting stitches....please keep me posted ❤️

Your skin is trying to repair itself hence the keloid like scaring. The dermatologist can inject the scars to thin them and lighten it up. I had the same response after my tummy tuck

Thanks for sharing the pics. What kind of stitching method did he use on your tummy tuck? Could this be the reason why your incisions healed like this? Also how long did it take for you to get back to walking up right? or sitting all the way straight?

1YEAR ANNIVERSARY!
It’s been 1 year! 365 whole days since my life has changed, and damn...I LOVE my results!! Some of these pre-op pics are SO embarrassing but you can’t really grasp the extreme difference without them. “Thank you” just isn’t enough for you, Dr. Philpott.
You are one hell of a surgeon and I couldn’t be more grateful for what you and your staff have done! You have a happy customer for life!
Time flies when you feel this good Who would have guessed my boobs would be my favorite part?!

You look amazing!!! Wow. Have you found it difficult to maintain. Are you exercising watching what you eat more or the same as pre op?

Thank you! I don't think it's been hard at all to maintain. I definitely love myself more so I want to take better care of my new bod, so that helps. I don't work our as much as I'd like to, but I definitely eat less and watch what I'm eating!

you need to be the poster child for MM surgery.....your results are beyond amazing....youre so tiny now...how much weight have you lost???

Thank you!!
I was 160-162 pre-op and fluctuating between 147-150 now. I have been working out so I think I'm replacing muscle with fat.
How is your after TT life going??

I'm so so so happy with results....my weight still, as always, has been hard to maintain....I have some bad scaring on my breasts but I am 17 months PO so I payed out topless today for 15 minutes to start so I can see if a little tan helps but I have not spent one second regretting my choice....my hubby looks at me like I'm candy....doesn't get better than that

I so happy for you!!
Like you, my TT scars don't bother me (or my husband) either. It's more my scaring on my back that I'm bothered by. I'm going to see my doc in 2 weeks and we are going to talk some scar revision to see if it's something we can fix. All in all, as terrible as it was (and painfully as hell) I'd do it a million times over if I had to!

You can see them a little in some of the pics, really well on the sitting on the bed collage. I'll post a scar update so you can see all my scars.

But what are they from....the only back scars I have are a 4 small lipo incisions

My doc thinks my body reacted to the lipo foam (the sticky kind that I had on for 24 hours). Maybe my aggressive lipo and/or my skin was sensitive. I also think because I've never had anything so traumatic happen to my body (other than giving birth) that my body went into panic mode to heal.

i think the lipo is the part that is hardest to recover from....i had 18 lbs sucked out but didn't bruise at all....i saw all the containers of fat he sucked....i think he used something that melts the fat first then sucks it out....you were super bruised....seems iike your body hated those dissolvable stitches too....funny how memories of all those wounds fade though....you look amazing girl and i STILL love that red bikini!!!
