Doing well and so happy with everything! So thankful for the most amazing, skilled doctor! Here’s a couple new pics. I want to try to keep updating everyone. I want this to be a long term TT review because I couldn’t find many. Feeling great. Still a little sore when engaging my core but I’m working out 5 days a week and feeling great. Here’s an updated scar pic too. I hope this is helpful to someone!

Thank you for sharing your process, this has been very helpful. I had a consult and waiting to be cleared to schedule for my TT. Although I am very excited but nervous for the recovery!!! Did you get the additional long-lasting anesthetic (Exparel)? If so, how long did it last and did you find it to be helpful?

Congratulations, looking amazing, will the scar fade away?

Thanks for sharing your results over time. I'm considering a TT and my "before" is similar to yours. I can relate when you say you've hated your belly since you were 8. I'm curious, have you had kids or any major weight loss? I've not and I'm wondering if I might reasonably expect similar results as you've had. Looking great!

I love the way the surgeon thoughtfully matched the two remaining parts of your low waist tattoo while removing the center portion — that gives a good visual idea how much skin was removed — it’s quite a lot! But a great job matching the two remnants so it looks like it was designed that way from the start.

I had a little knot at my scar line. Saw Dr. Rhee yesterday and he said probably scar tissue, was amazing as ever. Here are some updated pics. Loving my results and Dr. Rhee’s Magic!

Your results are amazing! Your scar is disappearing! I’m 4 months post and my incision looks like a chainsaw was used to open me up! I didn’t use the doctor you used. I haven’t shared my story just yet or my before and after pictures I had about three areas along my incision that opened. The three areas that opened were pretty deep. They were about 2 inches wide plus on the sides I have dog-ears! It’s very upsetting and extremely depressing, I paid a lot of money for something that I’m not happy with also, my hips look uneven, as if one side is higher than the other. I’m going to wait a couple more months just to see how everything turned out, then I’ll share my story. Congratulations to you and looking fabulous!
