How it works

- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

NEW PICS!
Today I felt like I was significantly straighter standing, and for some reason felt less swollen right at my tummy tuck incision... I am hoping it is from using ScarGaurd for the past couple of days!! I am bleeding from my second drain site, a bandaid doesn't do the trick, and it fills up gauze pretty quickly too. I don't really understand why but I'll probably call my doctor and ask. It definitely seems worse the more I move around.. even walking... and I don't think I am doing too much. anyway, still loving my results.
I have had some emotional times, and not regrets about having the surgery, but I have had moments of 'dissapointment' about the tummy tuck. I still don't regret it because it looks way better than before and when I bend over or sit down it does not bunch up and hang all over the place... but sometimes I feel like the bellybutton is too close to my TT scar... or that the TT scar is too high... and I always really liked my hips... the bones... when I would sit and stuff I thought they were a sexy part of my body... (especially since there were no stretch marks!) but now I have these scars on them... and because I am so early in the healing process they are still raised and swollen and very unattractive. Some days I look at it and think dang I look great and I am so happy... other days (or times) I look and think agh that looks deformed and disfigured. But I am trying to remember that at least I wont have to be scared to bend over naked in front of my husband because of a nasty hanging bag of loose skin!! I have always been very happy with the breasts, and have had no 'recovery' to speak of there, so that has been great.
I really really really hope I am healed well by June 1st because I want to fit in my wedding dress, and I want to feel healed enough to not be bumpy and rippled at the incision... I think today I see huge improvements and I am glad that I am taking these pictures so that I can see the progression of things.

PO Day 12:
noticing that my belly button is looking 'smaller' and flatter today. I think it is from swelling, but I am going to possibly try the marble trick or something to make sure it keeps a nice shape. I feel really great, and am standing way more up right today than I have yet! woohoo!

11 days PostOp!
new pictures.
got my second drain out today and it feels awesome. SOO glad to finally have it out, and not worry about it. Still some swelling, but feeling pretty darn good.
