WORTH IT$7,900

I had a TT and lipo of the sides, flank and back in April. I will not lie; I felt like I was hit by a truck for about 10 days. Each day got a little better. Today is day 46 after surgery and I am still a slight bit sore but doing fabulous. I look like a whole new person. I did not tell anyone at work; they all think I took a vacation and came back 15 lbs lighter :) My surgeon was wonderful, did great work, and has a fabulous bedside manor. Ladies please, please, please do your research on your plastic surgeon. Ask to speak with past patients, look at their photo book and ensure they have no malpractice suits etc.

Your post and pictures are very similar to my post and what I look like now. I am 12 days post op, I agree those first 10 days are aweful. I did some serious questioning as to what have I got myself into. Muscle pain is improving, able to stand nearly upright now. Love how my back/flanks are looking as the swelling and bruising subside. Will be posting pics once the belly button sutures are removed.

I agree with the first week being rough. I had my drains removed 7 days after surgery, and everything has gone swimmingly since.

It has now been over a year and the results just keep getting better. The scare is hardly visible at all and looks great. I am very pleased with my surgery. I still encourage you all to do your homework; there are a lot of good doctors out there but there are a few bad apples that can ruin your body.
