WORTH IT$11,000
I had lost a significant amount of weight (70lbs) and at 21 my body looked like I had a baby! I chose a mini tummy tuck and lipo combo to remove excess skin and fat tissue. I also had tubular breast deformity and after weight loss my boobs were uneven and shaped weird. I had surgery today and I'm so excited to see the results!! I wasn't sure what to expect but w pain killers and muscle relaxants, I feel pretty good. I don't have any drains and am wearing compression devices. Any questions please ask!

I'm post op day 2 And breasts are still very sore. Pectorals are sensitive and swollen. Mini TT has been the least painful. I've hardly felt anything other than breast pain. I called my surgeon yesterday to get the okay to take my muscle relaxants every 4 hours instead of every 6. Today I'm back to waiting to full 6 hours between doses. I had my boyfriend help me shower and clean up. The one thing I would do differently is to get more ICE PACKS! I had no idea they would melt so fast and I would be changing them out so frequently. Other than that, things have gone smoothly. Ill post more pictures tmrw.

Oh thanks! My surgeon told me anywhere from 3-5 hours and the longer hours madee nervous. Hopefully she was just giving me the minimum and Maximum she usually does. Nervous as heck!!!!!

You'll be fine! Just do your pre-op paperwork and then ask for something to relax you on the day of :)

So the past two days I have seen drastic improvement with swelling, pain and rom. However, it has been an emotional ride. Your body is sliced up, you are in pain and can't move, you can't be touched or touch your significant other and you're petrified that things are going to come out how you want them to, not too mention the 11 grand you spent to do this. Ahh! Feeling stressed and overwhelmed. My stomach is very swollen and I can't see a big change from the lipo and mini TT. I have a big scar and am not seeing the pay off. It's a very emotional experience. Did anyone else have tons of swelling? I did not have a drain put in and think this may be contributing to the additional days of swelling. Going to sleep it off and hope to see more results in a few days.
