I am very happy I chose Dr Samaha for my Tummy Tuck. He is very thorough and always took his time with me during my 2 consults to answer all of my questions ! And continues to during my follow up care. His Nurses Maureen & Deb are great and called me daily after my TT to check up on me.They are all very professional and friendly . I feel very comfortable there.

Thanks in particular for your photos on bb revision, mine has closed up and they are getting me back in to do a revision under local too.
How many months after the initial surgery before your sweeping subsided?
Swelling lasted a while for me, the majority of it subsided after 6 months . But I still experienced it on & off up until recently ..
Wow!  Fantastic result from your BB revision.  Congratulations!!!
Thank you!
hope your new bb heals nicely, how do you feel?
Thanks , I hope so too! I'm feeling good, it's not sore really. . Just a little sensitive to the touch.
Wow, you got a BB revision. Where did you get the lipo and how do you feel now? Looks great, i bet it since it's been some months that you are uber thrilled with it.

Belly button revision & touch up lipo

I had my belly button revision done Tue & lipo on the little pooch I had left below my BB. I had it done under local, no anesthesia . It was very weird .. No pain really but lots of pressure & vibration from the lipo. It took about a hour. So far I'm very happy with my results . A little swelling from the lipo .. I will take a pic in a few days. But here's the BB.

I'm jealous! I'm too chicken to do the lipo. But, oh how it'd be a nice little jump on that hip/flank fat ive got! LOL! I'm toying with my diet, macro nutrients, and adding more plant based food. You are still looking great! I always loved your trim waist!
Do you still love your surgeon? I think you look great.
Yes, I have always loved my Dr. & his staff! He discounted my lipo to make it affordable for me . And no charge for the belly button since I was not happy with original results!
Thanks for the review. I am looking for a surgeon to redo my tummy tuck.

Quick update

I haven't updated in a while. I have been feeling so so about my results. I was really hoping for my tummy to be flatter & tighter. I still have a little pooch below my belly button & I don't have the $$ for the lipo. I also don't like my belly button. I'm going in for a follow up next week to see if that can be fixed at least. And as far as the pooch I guess I'm in my own with that! I just thought I would feel a lot more comfortable in a 2 piece almost a year out & I really don't :/ but of course it's way better than before ;)

Your tummy looks tight and flat to me but you would know better! It shouldn't be a big job to get your belly button revised. Even after my second tuck I still wouldn't dare wear a two piece as I'd be self conscious about my belly button pleat which is a bit of a giveaway that I had work done! Oh well, I'm trying not to fret over it. I look a lot better in a bathing suit than I every did before I got tucked. Our surgeries were on the same day and I find it hard to believe that it's been almost a year! How time does fly!
Very keen on hearing what they say about the BB.  I don't like mine either, (it's also like a slit, though more at the bottom, while it's wide at the top--a triangle to a slit *sigh*,) but have no idea whether it's the kind of thing that can be altered.  
I think yours looks good. Mine doesn't open at all when I'm standing up straight. If I hunch a little it opens up a bit. I hope it can be fixed, if not I will pierce it to cover it up lol
Oh, okay.  Yeah, for me the main problem isn't even shape that much, it's more that the scar is completely on the outside of it.  But I still go out without covering it up, so it's obviously not that big a deal to me.  I hope they can give you one you like!
Let us know what is said about the bb. I'd be interested in knowing if that's surgical technique or genetics. I almost wish I'd done lipo on my flanks. I don't have the uterine pooch. But, I did before kids. I think it's cute on skinny girls any how. You look fairly cut thru the abs. Maybe its muscle! I love your results.
Thank you! Just posted the new bb
You look fantastic !!!
Thank you :)
