5 days post up
So today is 5 days post op. It’s been a great day so far as I finally had a BM (tmi sorry). It will be interesting to see how my scars heal up. I’m a little nervous as I haven’t seen many patients with this type of incision. I’m still very swallen and haven’t given my incisions a wash properly yet. So it looks quite bloody and I still have lots of markings on me from pre op. I’m walking heaps better today. Like 95% straight which is amazing. But still very slowly.
Parts of me can still see my old wrinkley belly button. I can’t wait to start seeing more of a regular

Hey everyone, after stalking RS for over a year I...
Hey everyone, after stalking RS for over a year I decided I’d put up a post about my experience. I had a full abdominalplasty with tightening, and a verticals incision as my surgeon said I did not have enough skin to pull completely down for a full tt and I had loose skin above the navel.
Recovery has actually been much easier gab I anticipated. And every day gets better and better. I’m on day 3 at the moment, feeling great, I can walk almost upright (although I still try to bend just to avoid any tension on my incisions) I don’t have significant pain. More like a burning type of pain near the incisions. The abdomen is very sore like I’ve done a million crunches. I can’t laugh or sneeze or cough. I’d say that’s the worst part so far.
Last night we had friends over and played a board game. They made me laugh the whole night and it’s was absolutely excruciating to the point I couldn’t contain my laughter and felt a constant strain and ripping in my abs. I ended up having to go into another room to relieve myself from the “giggles” and so they went home ASAP ???? thats neen the hardest thing for me so far, is the pain from laughing or accidentally tending your abs.
I’m still quite swollen and my incisions look quite horrific. I still feel like I have my old belly even though it is significantly tighter I feel like Iran going to go back to the same as it was. It’s probably all in my head ????
I’m wearing my compression garment 24/7.
I’d like to hear anyone else’s experiences? How long did it take for you to heal and are you happy with your results?
