3 months post op-awful result
JJFKJune 27, 2014
I'm 3 months post op and seriously unhappy as a result of my surgery. I look even worse now than I did before the surgery. My ps says it could be fat and I would need lipo. I am feeling very hopeless I went to another surgeon to get a second opinion and he was not willing to even touch my stomach I have no idea what to do at this point.

I'm sorry to hear your story. Of course you were looking forward to a big improvement, and got this dissapointing result. Must feel awful.
It seems so unprofessional that your ps does not admit that the results did not turn out as he expected it. I'm not an expert but it dies seem like you still have loose skin, that the fat is not the issue. I would post a picture on the Q&A here to have other doctors opinions on how you should go forth. Maybe there are some laws in your country on your side.to get money back. Maybe it's not even advisable to let that surgeon do any more damage? I'm sure a good one can fix it!

5 weeks post mini TT

I'm at 5 weeks and my stomach looks even more wrinkled than day one. Is it possible to have a full TT revision in a couple months?

I know most surgeons say 6 months, and it's even harder with the umbilical float bc if they separate it from the to after having already detached it from the bottom it can easily die from no blood flow. I have read that the bb can regain blood flow through the bottom that had been detached, but I am unsure how long that takes. You could probably address the skin below the bb poetry easily though. Obviously a surgeon would know way more about this than me. This is just what I've gathered about umbilical float TT on this site. I would certainly expect your surgeon to be willing to do revision (or pay for another surgeon to do it if you don't want yours to) free of charge. At least you are almost through the main swelling period so you can start talking/thinking about these things! Good luck!
