Tummy tuck

marylf
WORTH IT$3,800
I had a tummy tuck 2017 i took off 40 lbs and need to have the skin removed. I went back to the same doctor. I like that he only does 2 people for surgery in a day. The office stafe makes you feel very welcome. I was only there over night. I stayed close to the border for easy fallow up. There was also a medical transport that came to my hotel to pick me up and take me across the border also back . It was alot fast to go through then just the regular lane.

Tummy tuck photos

marylf
Every day is better the swelling is less. This i do think that this is do to.. I have now had my tub for almost 2 months . but if you tape it flat then it will not poke or move it makes it more comfortable. If you have to keep it for a bit . and a soft gauges over it to keep it from rubbing on anything.

Reading alot off realself

marylf
Iv been reading alot on here about people having emotional issues after surgery. Iv had a lot of surgery's not by choice things like having my neck fused and multiple arm surgery's for damaged nerve's. So i don't know if it is im use to the different traumas or what. ( i have had my drain tub in for almost 2 months now i have had a lot of drainage my doctor wanted the fluid to be less than 25cc . i know it seems like a long time but its fine just a bit inconvenient but i would rather that than traped fluid. I also had lipo and with the tummy tuck i could not move around well or stand up straight for 3+ weeks. So i could not walk alot to get the fluid out. Staying still i can feel the fluid pool and it causes pain. I do at least 20min of lymph massage. When i had lipo by it's self i walked alot from day one and the fluid was gone by 30days post op. This time was very different but it get better every day im still warring my garment and will for 4 months so the best shape possible for me. Im glad did this for my self. Its a lot of healings time but i know that i will be happy when all the swelling will be gone. I will add photos soon.
