Great tummy tuck experience so far - Newport Beach, CA

6 weeks out and I'm doing well. I got cleared to exercise lightly but no abdominal work yet. I had 4 inches of muscles tightened. I saw a part of my scar where the tape came off and my stitches have dissolved and it looks amazing. Like a pink scratch. No puffing or pulling or marks. Crazy amazing. My PS is the best. I love his staff and him so much. They make me feel like the best patient in the world.

Amazing appt with my PS today. I'm 3 weeks post op and loving it. He can't believe I have very minimal swelling(only in pubic area- weird). My incision line is healing great and is very thin considering how much he cut off. I can't even post the picture he took- it's sooo gross. It weighed 5 lbs!! I was one of his biggest patients! My upper muscle repair is still really sore to laugh, initial stand up and going to the bathroom. Other than that, this has been better than expected! Cheers and best wishes to all of you

Can't believe it is almost 3 weeks post op! I'm feeling like I'm getting back to normal but still idea of bending over to pick something off of the floor is hard. I'm not cleared yet to drive or walk around too much. I've definitely been enjoying this holiday season relaxing for once. My tummy isn't even swollen. Just really sore from the tightening of the upper abdominal muscles by 4 inches!
