Week 8 & Feeling Great

WORTH IT
This week I was given the green light to begin scar therapy and while looking in the mirror I noticed swelling is coming down and belly button looks cute.

You look GORGEOUS!!! I have a TT scheduled next month. I’ve been contemplating if I should add a breast augmentation or not. Did you feel like your boobs looked better after your TT? Did they project out or accentuate your figure more? Thanks and congrats on a stellar makeover! You look FAB!
Thank you so much for the kind words. I believe my C cups look bigger after the tummy tuck and so does my booty. A smaller belly seems to accentuate the other parts. Honestly, I wish I would've had this done 19 years ago after my first son. The TT journey took lots of patience and proper aftercare though. Vitamin C, Zinc, and probiotics also helped me heal. I also only used dial or hibicleanse on my body. I'm so glad I'm at week 12 of the process. It's very important to follow doctor orders after the procedure to ensure proper recovery. The first couple weeks may be rough but you won't remember any of it after you heal and see the results. Congratulations to you on your upcoming TT. Please share pics after you have your procedure :)
I will for sure! Thank you so much. You have no idea the courage you’ve provided me! Keep killing it, girl!
You look Great. Can you tell me the price? Including surgery at hospital

Thank You Dr. Khalifeh: Love My Tummy

Dr. Khalifeh and his staff were very professional, kind, and accommodating to my needs. Dr. Khalifeh ensured I was able to have my procedure performed during a timeframe that was convenient for me and my family. I was very nervous about a tummy tuck and preferred to be in a hospital for access to all medical services and Dr. Khalifeh ensured I was treated at the Inova Hospital surgery center. I’m beyond happy with my tummy tuck and incision. I am a 44-year-old mother and my body has been instantly transformed back to my 20’s. I’m still healing and swollen but able to fit my clothes perfectly with no sagging skin. Life changing procedure after years of sucking, tucking, hiding, and binding that belly skin. I’m now ready to dress the way I want to without dressing around my stomach. I’m now buying two-piece outfits that show a little midsection skin. Oh yea, another big bonus… most of my stretch marks are gone!! Yay!

You look great. If you don't mind me asking, how did the hospital admission impact your costs?
