I've got that feeling!

I really need to update my photos I know. But I've got exciting news to share! I'm finally getting the feeling back below my BB/above the TT scar. It's not normal but I can at least have some feeling. I'd say 25pct. Will be interesting to see if it progresses. I'm still in love with my results...I have a big mirror leading into my bedroom and it's rare that I don't lift up my shirt to admire my own abs when I walk by, lol. I'm still running and crossfitting....if I could get serious about my diet, I'd probably have a 6 pack....one day I'd love to see it.

1 year PO

Wow, I'm amazed a year has flown by! The only disappointment I have is that I didn't get this done years ago!!!

Life is great, Im still running regularly and I started doing Crossfit in July. I'm so much stronger than I ever was. I immediately gained 10 lbs, but didn't gain a clothing size. Over the holidays I've managed to pack on 5 more lbs (I weigh 183 in these photos @ 5'8") while my clothes are a bit tighter, they all still fit. My goal for 2017 is to get lean, so my muscles will show. I can do all kinds of ab workouts and nothing hurts anymore.

My scars are noticeably lighter, but still have a hint of pink to them. I think my PS did an excellent job making my scars thin and low. My BB turned out great too. The scar is right around the inside rim and not terribly noticeable. The skin inside my BB seems darker than the rest of my skin, which kind of stands out, but not sure why. I had no issues with dog ears. I still swell in the afternoons, but it's not that bad.

I tried to take these pics from various angles, enjoy!

Feeling great! Started crossfit 3 weeks ago. No issues completing an of the exercises. My scar is healing beautifully. While I think it's pretty obvious I had a TT because of my upward stretch marks and my BB, I'm very happy with how it turned out. I was really worried about my BB and the more the scar fades, the better it looks. Life is good!

I'm so glad I trusted Dr D!!! He has completed my Mommy Makeover with expert precision. His scarring is expertly placed and beautifully thin. Both of my recoveries were a breeze and I can't say enough great things about his team. Thank you Dr D for changing my life!!!!
