He’s Changed my Life!
I have had some big babies, including twins in my early 40’s. I knew when I was pregnant with twins I would definitely not snap back.
After I had stopped breastfeeding my twins, I started to consult with different plastic surgeons. I didn’t click with any of them, but when I consulted with Dr.Shortt I picked out my surgery date and paid the deposit that very day. He was warm, kind, very knowledgeable and honest. I came with a list of things I wanted to do and a barrage of questions (since he was not my first consult) and he was kind, patient and answered all of it without rushing. He also found an umbilical hernia I didn’t know I had at the consult.
On the surgery date I had a abdominalplasty with muscle repair and umblical hernia repair, liposuction to the flanks and fat transfer to the breasts (no lift or implants), everything went smoothly and the recovery, I was expecting the worse, but none of it happened. Oddly I totally lucked out, the pain from a tummy tuck was much less then a twin C-section and the recovery was easier too since I didn’t have to care for premie infants 24-7. After surgery I could actually get up from bed and use the bathroom by myself by day 2, I was driving by day 5 post op. Dr.Shortt also addressed my scaring concerns seriously (as I’m asian and prone to hyper pigmentation and keliods) and I really appreciated that. I was in a binder for the first 4 weeks (I recommend wearing a tank top underneath the binder), then 2 weeks of shape wear and have been using silicone tape since week 2 and still continue to do so.
Results? My chronic back pain (probably from lack of core muscles from a 4cm diastasis- which is my diagnoses , not any doctor), which I’ve had from my 1st kid and got so so much worse after twins was completely gone right after surgery and still gone. This was the biggest change in my life.
It’s now 4 + months post op (I’m about the same weight as pre surgery) and I lost 6 inches around my belly button waist (compared to pre-op) , and my breasts are filled in from the fat (around 300cc to each breast). For breast fat transfer, there’s literally almost no scars and I’ve gained about 1/2 to 1 cup size. I went from a deflated C cup to a D. My body shape is now proportional and balanced. Oh and I chose Dr.Shortt for his expertise in fat transfer and belly buttons. My belly button looks fantastic (I wasn’t sure pre-op because I also had an umbilical hernia repair)! I’m proudly wearing crop tops and low rise jeans now.
I feel pre-kids in energy now that I have my core muscles back, and I’ve been able to exercise and lift weights and lift my children without pain. Also, not to mention I feel and I think I look fantastic. This is all because of Dr.Shortt, I have him to thank for it. I can’t recommend him enough for actually changing my life.
Now when women ask how I’ve had 3 kids and still look great, I tell them “major surgery, I am not going to pretend for one second that having twins did not break me”. I’m proud of having 3 kids, and I’m proud of doing what needs to be done to get my life back so I can enjoy raising my family.
Thank you Dr.Shortt.
