It's 5 wks post op. I almost feel back to normal now. Just started scar treatment with silicone strips, hoping they improve the look of my scar, anything is worth trying I think. Have just started light jogging and walking, not quite back to aggressive exercise yet. Overall, progress is great!

So it's two weeks now. Swelling has gone down heaps. There's no pain now, just tightness. Just starting to sleep flat without pillows under my legs. Recovery has been considerably quick. I'm now comfortable doing more around the house. Still wearing binder for compression 24/7 and have paper tape still on wound. Bit of bruising on my flanks still from lipo but that's subsiding every day. feel free to ask any questions if I've missed something. I know it was hard to get reviews in Sydney.
Also, don't be too afraid of the scar. If you need a full tt, get a full tt. I was fairly tight above my navel and with lipo, got a good result from a "mini", just navel down. I do see now why they say the scar is the trade off for a tight tummy, but especially if you have an ugly Caesar scar, who cares. Knickers will cover it!!

You look amazing! Hardly any swelling. You're going to look even better at 4-6 months I'm sure! Happy 20's again!!

I'm a mum of four. Four pregnancies and breastfed babies did a good job on my body. With the youngest now 4, and having lost a lot of weight, I feel totally ready to bring my sexy back! I did a lot of research on qualified Sydney surgeons. Didn't want to pay through the roof but wanted a professional job. Dr moradi listened to what I wanted, and advised a mini tummy tuck would do the job. I wasnt keen on a hip to hip scar, just wanted the overhang on my Caesar scar gone, loose skin removed and separated muscles tightened. He also offered me lipo as part of it to help with the contour at no extra charge. I am stoked with the results. I don't care about the scar, it's low and easily concealed. My tummy is flat and tight like I was 20 again ????. The process and journey has been emotional at times, but it is. Making your body beautiful again after being ravaged by the beauty of childbirth is emotional, but we deserve it!! Dr moradis staff are all lovely, supportive, and very down to earth. I'm now looking forward to part 2 - my new boobs ????

My scar is a few inches shorter than my hips as you can see in pics. Please trust your professional plastic surgeon. They normally only cut as long as they need to to give you the best possible looking tummy. If you haven't any tummy scars, I understand your worry. But you know, it's either saggy skin and possibly separated muscles or a scar. It is easy to conceal and you feel great. You will know when you are ready, take your time and read other people's stories. Goodluck x

Hi You looked pretty amazing for someone who has had 4 kids! Results are fantastic, great you had a short scar, thanks for sharing!

Thankyou. That's so nice of you to say. To be honest, not sure I could have coped with a longer scar, unless of course I had a lot of unbearable loose skin in the upper tummy and had no choice.
