I will be 6 weeks Thursday. I am teaching 2 boot camp classes a week, training 8 ladies and just started Body Beast. I think the rest from the gym did my body good.

I'm so excited for tomorrow after having read your posts! I am going to have a thigh lift and tummy tuck in the morning...I have been really worried about how long I'd be unable to workout. I am pretty active- so I hope I have similar results!

Please keep us up to date and best of luck. I'm going in September. Also a runner and all that so not looking forward to lots of down time. Ksmith21, did you get medial thigh lift correct? Is that painful? How about the ab now? I had an abdominoplasty in 2007 and it was terribly botched so going back in to get it fixed. The only thing I'm worried about is the scars from the thigh lift.

My scar is not down the leg. It's just in my groin area. There is only 2 spots that you can see the scar but I don't I heal good.

That is a fast recovery! I am having this surgery in Sept and greatly appreciate your posts! Thx

I am a hot yoga studio owner and due to a connective tissue disorder I have horrible thighs and never wear shorts! I am so encouraged by your surgery and recovery and can't wait to have the same results someday soon!

Would it be possible to see the incision/scars closer or clearer? I'm really curious on this type of lift as I, too, am your size.

You seem to have had a really good experience with all of your surgeries, love were he has placed the stitches, did Dr Forrest Wall perform your TT and implants?

Do have any further information to blog about. I am interested to see how you are doing a few mor months down the track. Hope everything is well.

Hi hope you gave a nice recovery. I'm interested in seeing how the scar looks like after couple of months.

Would you please post some pics showing the scar in the front & back? Thanks a lot.

I have had a lot of people ask about where my scar is, here is a pic of where my incisions are. You can't see them in a swimsuit.

So they pulled up the skin? And didn't cut right down the inner thigh? The one plastic surgeon said he doesn't recommend me doing it that way because of how it makes the vagina look. Not that I walk around with my legs spread or anything lol but he scared me away from doing that.

Yes. He took over 3 inches of skin, everything looks normal down there. I did not want a scar down my leg.

I was told my skin is anchored in the bone??? Not sure how or what that entailed but none the less...it worked good. I never question my Dr. and he has never let me down.

I need a doctor like that. I'm a little discouraged. Because I don't want a scar down my leg either. I still have 20lbs to go before I really decide on this surgery but I hope to find a competent surgeon who can not mess up my legs even more then they naturally are.. I really hate my legs.. They are huge

def get to your goal weight. My legs aen't bug but they were REALLY saggy. I looked like I had 80 year old legs. My knees still have some skin but I think the laser treatments will help with that.
July 4, 2015
that looks so good I am contacting your doc! I also did not want the scar down my leg all that much; I think some docs say that because it's the easiest way to tighten it all up. I wonder if it's feasable to go there for the surgery from out of state. But, what about follow up visits. Still, you see people going to Mexico and all over. It looks very good.

that's me to a T. I exercise, ride bikes, do pilates, swim the size and in clothes my legs look great but.... Saggy baggy elephant. I had a guy once at an outdoor shower in a resort once tell me he was freaked out by them.

I remember that my grandmother's legs looked like mine. As a child I thought I hope that does not happen to me. My mom's did not look like this tho.

Ksmith! I want your doc too!! Please find out about that out of town patient stuff (as mentioned above) - so you can tell us. I do not want a scar down the entire inside of my leg, but I would love to have a thigh tuck if I can get bikini line incisions - that would be amazing!! Your legs look GREAT!!! Please share some info with us!

Thanks for sharing this.
I need one and have two consults lined up. If you don't mind sharing, did it help with the mons and perineum laxity.
