4 months post-op

WORTH IT$7,900
I'm 4 months PO and I feel great. Loving the fact that crop tops are back in style. I've always thought a flat stomach was the sexiest thing on a woman, and I love that I don't have to hide mine anymore. I still have a ways to go to be where I want to be, but it's excited. I'm swollen in these pics, but my swelling has been very mild so far. Hoping it stays that way!

Dr. Mason and his staff are great! They explained everything really well. They took their time to explain the full procedure to me, allowed me to ask as many questions as I wanted to, and were so comforting and reassuring along the way. I never felt rushed or unimportant. They treated me like a queen from the time I arrived for surgery until the moment I passed out under anesthesia. They were so reassuring and efficient that I didn't even feel nervous the day of surgery! I've already been to my post-op and they were all so encouraging and positive about my progress that I walked out of the office feeling so great about myself! Plus, they never once had me waiting for any of my appointments - they were very punctual and that's something that's very important to me! I initially chose Dr. Mason because he did my sister's breast reduction and she was thrilled with the result. After meeting with him once, I knew he was the one I wanted to do my surgery. I would highly recommend him!

You look great! How are you feeling? Are you 100% back to normal? I'm almost 4 months po and still reminded by the swelling. I'm still conscious of it, but it's getting better.
Yes, I really do feel totally back to normal. The only thing that still feels strange is when I stretch certain ways, I can feel the pulling around my incision. I've been lucky in avoiding any major swelling so far, but there are definitely days when I feel like my stomach is squishing all over the place and I HATE IT!
You look amazing! How are things looking now?

Updating with more pics

Still feeling great. I love my stomach and I swear, I don't know if I'll ever get tired of looking at it. Yay! Just wanted to upload a few more progress pics.

You look awesome!! Really I get it! It's life changing. Sometimes when I sit I feel like a roll is over my pants and I look down and I'm flat and it's an amazing feeling. Love to see your progress!
Thank you!

10 weeks post-op (I think!)

I think I'm about 10 weeks post-op... I honestly haven't been keeping track. At some point my life went pretty much back to normal and I don't think about my surgery 24/7 like I did before. I feel great. Still so happy with my decision to go ahead and have the surgery. I can't wait for the day when the swelling subsides! It definitely comes and goes for me. I'd have to say that I have more good days than bad, but every now and then I have a day where I just feel so swollen and bloated that I'm like WTF. When I feel that way, I try to pull up one of my before pics and remind myself how much better I look now, even with the swelling! It definitely helps. Hope everyone is healing well OR getting excited and prepared for their very own surgery! P.S. - my husband, who was all "you don't need a TT, your stomach is fine, you look beautiful the way you are" LOVES my results. He tells me almost every day how good I look, and I'm just like "yup, told you this surgery was a good idea!" I love being right ;)

Haha. Husbands! Mine was the same way.
Right?! I'm all like, "hate to say I told you so!" Haha but at least he admits it! If he tried to say that I looked just as good before then I'd know he was just being stubborn!
Beautiful:)
Thanks! And you look amazing!
You have beautiful results! I'm 5 months PO and I still have my daily swelling, although it's not terribly noticeable. My husband was the same way and now he can't keep his hands off me...cracks me up!
Thank you! You look amazing as well! And seriously... Men! I guess I should just be glad that he's happy with the results! Money well spent ;)
