Hello All, here are my 5 month post lipo / 1 year post tummy tuck pics. I did not have any complications from the lipo and the early on discomfort has long since past. I do have the 4 lipo holes, which are slowly fading. Happy healing!

Dr. Jonathan Saunders preformed the lipo as a follow up to my tummy tuck, he did not charge a fee for this surgery, I only paid for the surgery center fees. I love my new tummy and the extra lipo has helped enhanced my surgery results. I highly and recommend Dr. Jonathan Saunders.

What type of lipo did you have?

I am going to say traditional. It wasn't referred to as smart lipo or anything.

Great results, very natural. I also had a tt 9 months ago and had lipo to the hips at that time. Dr. didn't get the section around my side hip as much as I would expect, it hasn't improved so want it suctioned more. Going in for lipo of that area in a week and a half, as well as thighs and flanks just to clean up that whole area that I tend to keep my weight in (lost 75 lbs 3 years ago but those areas not responding to the weight loss and weight training/cardio). Also while he's there thought I'd get my eyes done! Read lots about eyes but just started checking out reviews of lipo. Thanks for your great review and suggestions and thoughts on your recovery! It really helps to read real life experiences! My doc said that the tt is the hardest recovery of any surgery he does, didn't you find this recovery to be much easier?

Hi Whybrown, I saw your pics, you are looking good! The TT recovery was much harder mostly due to the muscle tighting. However, I did have to go under again for the lipo and I did have a lot of discomfort for a few days. You will do fine, the worst is behind you now. Good luck to you!!

You have a very good doctor. Mine thinks I need a mini tummy tuck to correct my problem after a year post op of full tummy tuck. Charging me more than 4K! :(

Hello all, I am at the 4 week mark. So far I haven't seen any improvement since my last update at 10 days. However, I am sharing some more photos. I still have soreness. I was told I don't need the garmet after week 3 but I find myself uncomfortable when I go without it. On these days I put it on when I get home and feel less sore right away. My PS said it takes 6 months to see the final result. After the tummy tuck and the additional lipo 7 months later (which is this review) I feel like I have been healing FOREVER! At least by September TT will be one year and lipo will be 5 months. I hope the lipo fixes my flanks and muffin-top by then.

Hi, sharing some pics. The soreness has really subsided but it's not gone. I am still swelling and my weight is up 3 lbs from preop. I am noticing some improvement and hope that continues. Happy healing to all. ??
