My tummy has never been flat before - my transformation is amazing
ORIGINAL POST
Dr. Haramis’s Work is Impeccable
WORTH IT
Dr. Haramis did an incredible job. My tummy has never been flat before and my transformation is amazing. I’m only two weeks post-op but healing well. I can’t wait to see what I’ll look like in a few months. He was kind, empathetic, professional and he followed up with me personally after surgery which I’m sure he does with all his patients.His staff is pretty awesome, too.

7 weeks post op
My advice to anyone who wants to get this procedure done is to be patient during the recovery process. It can take months for the swelling to subside. Dr. Haramis exceeded my expectations. He “understood the assignment”!

thanks for sharing I had my TT and muscle repair last may 17 2021, I still have swelling, my abdomen gets hard at times, there swelling above my umbilical area, I have to wear shapewear daily for support. I feel. so uncomfortable w/o any sort of compression for long periods of time. I have yet to wear normal panties. all day. so I haven't invested in any yet. so everyone journey is different. I also had a Rheumatoid Arthritis flare ups since having surgery which set me back. hopely at 1 yr I will see a big difference. I definitely am way flatter and shapely then I was. by the. way I. am 56 57 June,

This past week, I bought my first pair of panties that didn’t look like granny panties…lol…yay!!! But I’m back in a compression garment because I had my thighs done on March 2nd. I got my first lymphatic drainage massage today. They massaged my tummy as well as my thighs even though I had the tummy tuck done back in October. The massage therapists said I am retaining a lot of fluid in the area. I think these ladies were right because my stomach isn’t perfectly flat. The surgeon said the swelling can take up to a year before it’s completely gone.

Bought a bikini!
I am really happy that the swelling is going down week after week. While I am still in need of a breast reduction and lift, I am finally confident wearing a bikini at age 45! This was definitely worth all the financial sacrifices and the physically and mentally challenging post-op recovery.
