I worked really hard to get into shape....
$12,500
I worked really hard to get into shape. Weightlifting. Eating clean. I wanted the work I put into it to show. I needed a little nip and tuck I thought to make that possible.
5'3" 130lb.
Had breast augmentation with 350cc silicone
Full tummy tuck
Still not sure if it was worth it. The first 4/5 days were the worst with pain. After that it was manageable. I can't see true results yet because I am waiting for swelling to go down and for the implants to drop more. Time will tell! I am hopeful.

you should of gone to the Dominican Republic, you would of pay less and still receive a better job. i am sorry for your turn out, but i have seen girls who has done this and in two weeks to a month they has a completely flat tummy. check out Dr. Beaze, Dr. Duran and Dr. Tania Medina. and there is a lot more good doctor in Dominica Republic, search on real self.

Now and then
I decided to create a side by side. It doesn't look like anything from above the belly button was moved. It's disappointing. Updates to come. I have an appointment Thursday (tomorrow).

25 days post complications still unsatisfactory results
Well it's been a rough almost 4 weeks. My breasts are more satisfactory but my tummy tuck results are less than desirable at this point. My waist is more defined but I'm afraid that's because my lower abdomen is so full. The crease from my navel to my incision is not going away. I doubt it will. I'm very unhappy with that and the amount of fat or skin that is so lax is not acceptable. Hoping time makes it better but I think a revision is foreseeable once I am able to 6-12 months post. My belly button has gauze in it because it was spitting stitches. My body rejected the internal sutures and opened up and became infected. I had to go see my PS and he removed the sutures and I cover with saline soaked gauze twice a day. It's improving remarkably fast. Thank goodness. My clothes are tight on my lower abdomen since I am bigger now than before surgery in that area. It almost feels as if all my fat were pulled to the bottom of my tummy.

Your waist looks amazing. I am so sorry you've been having such a rough time with it. I hope after the swelling dies down, you'll see the results you wanted to. Your waist really does look tiny and amazing!! I'm going to keep following for updates. Sending you wishes for speedy healing!

I'm so sorry :( I was following your review because I'm also 5'3 and 130lbs. I eat pretty clean and I weightlifting as well. I wanted to see what results were possible. I felt like my skin was never the same again. Hopefully it continues to improve with time. Maybe you still have a lot of swelling? I heard people gain water weight after surgery, and it takes some time to flush it out :(

Maybe. I'm trying to be hopeful. I have another appointment in less than two weeks. I'll keep updating!
Thanks for sharing your photos. I'm sorry you've been in pain, but I'm glad to hear that you're healing. We'll look forward to seeing your updates.
