I had a previous tummy tuck almost two years ago and the out come was unsatisfactory . I had a continuous pressure like swelling/hardness on my Right side and by the end of the day I felt like I was 6 months pregnant. I always wore a binder or spanx to keep swelling down. I saw on here a response about my feeling and it could be "pseudo bursa" . I made a consult appt with the Dr that mentioned it and he confirmed my feelings was the pseudo bursa.

Wow! What a difference! It doesn't look like the same tummy at all! You must be thrilled. Thanks for sharing the info about a pseudo bursa! I was surely worth it to go the 2nd round! You look great!

Thank you, I'm soo happy with the results! I was beginning to think it was all in my mind about this bulge and swelling I was experiencing. There is a video with Dr Repta removing the pseudo bursa ...it's called "inside the operating room" check it out.

Yes, I will. I started some sagging skin at 4 months PO; however, I look fabulous standing up lol! Please keep posting. I can't wait to see you at 1 month, 2 month, etc. I don't doubt it was worth it, in fact, others I"ve seen on RS who had a 2nd TT found it even easier than the first one! Yes, I'll watch the video this evening when I have more time. Take care and Happy Healing the 2nd Time!

I will post another pic in a cpl weeks. But I will be honest with you the 2nd time around was very painful. I had a breast lift with the first TT as well but the 2nd hurt a lot more because the Dr said he did a lot more work and stitched the upper abs etc. I hope the best for you and that you won't require a 2nd TT. I will keep in touch :)

My upper abs were stitched together the first time, so I been there done that ;-) I didn't get my boobs done, wish I could have lifted the saggy girls. I can't imagine both a tt and bl at the same time nor could I afford it.

I agree! Huge difference, Dr. Repta did you well! Best of luck with your continued healing. I'm at just under 12 weeks and am so pleased with my flat, non saggy belly!
