Still luv my result he cut me so low I'm able to wear 2 pieces bikini he told me I won't be able to wear string bikini but I can and you wont see the cut thank you Dr Tattelbaum you dod a wonderful job on me. I went back try to get breast lift he told me no u look fine and I left it alone his very honest he could've take my money but he told me you don't need it you look perfect. So haven't got anything done since my tummy tuck.

11 weeks post- opt today everything is going well but this past 5 days I been feeling stabbing and pinching pain in the pubic area it's very painful it hurts like hell all I want to do is scream the pain come and goes away I may feel it every 20 or 30 minutes for like a minute. I am experiencing extreme sensitivity, burning, shocking feelings throughout my pubic area. I don't know how to calm it. I call my PS they told me it's nothing I can do what I describe is very normal and typically the discomfort will resolve that region is very tender. It's the nerves repairing and becoming accustomed to their new positions. And it's indication that nerves are intact or growing back and When it wakes up you feel that pins and needles tingling sensation. Is there anything I can do to ease these feelings?

I can't believe I'm already two month post op. You...

I can't believe I'm already two month post op. You all remember how I was freaking out few weeks ago about my belly button. I love my new little belly button, my flat tummy and no more muffin top yeahhh. Love my new body everything looks great I'm feeling like I'm on my teen years all over again LOL :) still having swelling on my left flanks that swelling refused to go away but it's not tight anymore and the swelling is not that bad . I'm already sleeping on my side but I can't wait to sleep on my tummy I don't know when that will happen :( .I'm finally feeling like myself again no more walking bind the pain and swelling come and go but they not bad. I saw my PS last Thursday he said I love your result I told him so do Iol. He start seeing me every 3 weeks so I want to start doing monthly updated. Good luck ladies hang in there and happy healing :)

A have an excellent PS DR. TALLELBAUM you the best right After my surgery he came to check on me and maybe 2 hours after i got home he call me to see how I'm doing and if i have any questions he goes extra miles. And my nurse her name is HOPE she's the best i will give her a 10*star she take such a good care of me. DR Tattlelbaum was professional, kind, and informative. He was extremely sensitive to me i didn't express how scared i was but he knew i was scared he comfort me. He works in a beautiful and clean office. The entire staff they very nice and amazing! I can only say good things about Dr T. He is a very honest and is truely skilled he give me my body back. He was very thorough in explaining the procedure, the risks along with the benefits and gave me realistic expectations that I feel were fully met. I am so glad that I choose this Doctor. And i will come back for my breast reduction and lift :)
