Tummy Tuck with Lipo and Feeling Really Good - Raleigh, NC Dr. Michael Law

UPDATED FROM Nikki lu

Tummy tuck at one year

WORTH IT$11,500
It has been one year since I had my tummy tuck and so glad I did it. Tummy tuck looks great. Could be much better if I would do my part with the diet stuff. I do work out but seem to stay the same weight. Girl has to eat. :) Next thing I would like to do is a breast Reduction. Hope to do that next year.

Thank you. You will be so happy that you did it. First couple of months you might think what did I do to myself, but in the end it will be great.

I am amazed with your reults i am 3days post op and I'm super swollen. I'm 5'1 142 pounds so we were pre op similar. How was your first few weeks swelling? It's upsetting i look the same size. I just are flabby is this normal. I had lots of lipo and whooohooo it hurts. My name is Nikki as well lol. I hope to look like you when all is done

It will get better. I did have swelling but not a whole lot that I can remember, The drugs they gave me made me forget. :). My doctor was really good. I think my results would look even better if I would have dropped the extra 15lbs. I am still trying and maybe some day I will have longer will power than just 2 weeks of diet. Hope you are doing okay.

Thanks. I just think 145lbs @ 5'2" is too much. Sometimes I have to tell myself I am 44 years old and I can't be a toothpick. lol. I think however maybe my boobs would lose the 15 lbs. and that would be okay with me. :)

Day 16 got the stitches out of my bellybutton. I don't know if it really hurt or it just is weird for someone to be messing with my bellybutton. She had a hard time getting them because my bellybutton still has some swelling. Doctor Law says I am doing great and also said that he could take the Birthmark off in a year if I wanted to do so. It is either a scar or the birthmark. I will think about over the next year. Still have swelling in the lower tummy but he says that will probably be there for awhile. Laser treatments start on my next appointment. Happy Healing to all. :)

Today is day 13. Drain was removed on day 7. I was glad to get that think out. Did not hurt just a bother. This past Friday they took all stitches out of the tummy. I still have 3 left in the bellybutton. They left those in because the bellybutton was still red. First day out to the store yesterday and all was fine. I did start to bleed a little from the area where the drain was. I just put a bandaid on it and that seemed to stop the bleeding. I will take pictures soon just wanted some of the swelling to go down first.
