18 mths PO not happy

Hello All!! I am currently a little over 2 years PO. Things are going ok. I will be going for a consultation with a new doctor. I have constant pain in my stomach from stitches or something when i move or my stomach gets full. My scar has lightened up quiet a bit but the lumps and scar itself look horrible. My breasts however are fantastic. Best part of my surgery although they were not the reason i wanted the surgery done in the first place. My main goal was a new tummy. So unhappy with the results.

Well it's been 18 months since my MM. I knew it was going to be an emotional battle as well as physical. The first year was both. Let me first day that I am extremely happy with my breast. It was truly some amazing working Dr. Pousti did in that area. I couldn't be happier. It's the Tummy Tuck that bothers me, daily. The one thing I waited +10 years for. The one thing that I can't afford to have redone. The dissolvable stitches that were used broke through my skin and my body did not dissolve them. I have horrible scaring from it. Along with hard bumps in my scar from the places that opened. My hips look like a road map. My hips are also bigger now than they were before my surgery. The lipo that I had done in that area might as well be non existent. I had lipo done in my pubic area. OMG it's horrible. That area is twice the size it was before and I have a dent in the top area. It seriously looks like someone took their finger and put a dent in it. So not attractive. I hate wearing a bathing suit because it looks so puffy in that area. I cry as I write this because all I wanted was just to feel for once comfortable in a bathing suit. I live in a place where it's summer year round. How awful I'm not even comfortable in a one piece having had a mommy makeover done. I have since moved from the area where I had my surgery done. So it's not like I can just go and have the corrective surgery done and go home. On top of already spending $15K I would have to pay for the corrective surgery and the air fare. Not going to happen. I'm just so depressed and beyond upset about this whole thing.

Hello all. It's been a while since my last update. I have been on and off checking in on people. Life has been crazy! Wow has so many things changed in a few months time. I will start out by saying I am 100% happy with my boob job. They look fantastic. Dr. P couldn't have given me a nicer set! lol. They don't look "fake". They feel real and I get so many compliments on them. My TT..eh not so much. The first thing I get is OMG your scar is horrible. Is it suppose to look like that? UM NO! It is jagged, lumpy, and in places is almost smeared looking. I have bumps under my scar where the dissolvable stitches (which looking into are horrible to use because so many people have reactions to them) came out or are still stuck in there yet to dissolve and I have scar tissue built up around the stitches. I am going to have to have a revision done with pisses me off more than anything because I saved for years for this. I am not happy with my hip area. I planned this surgery in conjunction with the summer. I live in a beach location. I wanted to be able to wear a bikini for the first time in my life this summer. Lost some weight, had the surgery and still can not wear one. My hips are bigger now than they ever have been. What upset me the most was I went in to my PS and told him this. When I went my patient folder was brought in with my before picture, with them pretty much saying they looked like that before. UM NO! I do measurements. I measured my hips the day before surgery and they are 3 inches bigger now then the day I had my surgery done. The rotten part is I really like my PS. Really genuine guy. I am so over this whole thing and ready to just move on to someone else. At this point I would have to say I am seriously disappointed with my TT>
