Long Awaited Update
As you all know I had my boobs done and a tummy tuck by Dr. Michael Rodriguez AKA (Magic Mike). It has been a roller coaster ride with this healing process. Anyway it’s 9 months since I had the surgery and as the pictures reflect it will eventually work itself out. It’s not just a cheesy saying, “healing does take time”. Well I’m going in for part yw my BBL. I decided to go with the best in the business “Dr Curves” My surgery date is April 16th. I will be traveling to Atlanta, Georgia, found me a nice inexpensive Airbnb and now I’m good to go.,, You guys know I couldn’t get my top done and leave the bottom to chance.. lol. I’ll keep you posted!!!
13 Weeks Post Op/The Regret
13 Weeks! Wtf!!! My previous pics reflect me holding in my stomach because I thought I was dealing with fluid that needed to be released. Well this is what’s real. Full TT with Muscle Repair??? If yal saw my Pre Op picture you would know I didn’t have a stomach or even a pudge. My stomach was basically flat outside of the skin that needed to be removed. So WTF??? I asked the surgeon what’s up. This is what he said,
“The part of abdomen that goes in and out required diet and exercise, unfortunately there is no surgical remedy”It’s not lose skin it’s fat in viceral component, there is no surgical procedure to eliminate that.”Tummy tuck is a tightening procedure removes all skin from belly button to pubic bone, lipo reduces fat below skin but not below muscles”
Are you telling me the skin I’m able to pull pultruding above my belly button is really fat thats under the muscle??? Everyone I have spoken to has said that it looked like I had a Mini Tummy Tuck with a Full Tummy Tuck scar, because that bulge will normally occur if a muscle repair was not done or if only a Mini Tummy Tuck was done. Now I’ve spent $8500 and a mf want to tell me there is nothing surgically hay can be done. This requires diet and exercise..Bull@&$!! I now have a bigger stomach then I started with Pics don’t lie. I have only appeared flat on surgery day and up until the first couple of weeks. After the third week I have had a pudge ever since! I’ve asked for a refund as I don’t want to go under the knife again yet I feel I didn’t get what I paid for. And to just say I don’t care what it looks like I did a Full TT with muscle repair on you, You need to diet n exercise is not an acceptable response. I am not over weight Im 5,4 148lbs I look bigger because of the extra skin I’m carrying along my bottom half. I had the gastric bypass surgery. My body is the product of diet an exercise. I lost almost 100lbs. I was 220 and I got down to 138lbs. I am so upset!!!
