I just recently had a tt, I would make sure you do it with a local Board Certified Plastic Surgeon. I have had some complications (small) but I have to drive to my doctors office 2 times a week for 2 weeks to fix my tummy problem.

I am thinking about a tt, and I have a serious issue with the anesthesia part. Its just risky. Did you go under general? What was the nature of your issues?

I have not had my surgery yet but just the tought of every thing makes me scared .. I have a good feeling that everything will be fine and ive been reading alot about anestishia complications and ive found out that it very rare and its a very low percent.

No, my drains were removed at 8 days and 15 days. But I think they came out too early, I developed a LARGE Seroma. It had to be drained frequently, biweekly. After a few weeks the doc put a drain in. Drains are no fun, but a seroma is worse. My advice is be very patient about having a drain.

Research! Get a few consultations... look at all the before and afters. So excited for you! I have my 3rd consult next week, and while my surgery won't be until the end of the year, I'm eyeballing bathing suits with a sense of joy instead of dread. Good luck!

No problems w Anesthesia. Just draining issues. But if you do not drain properly, you will not have the final results we all want.
