Pre-ops Have Been Awesome

WORTH IT$9,800
I am 21 yrs old, 2 kids (c-sections). I gained 100lbs throughout the pregnancies and lost 50lbs after having my last child.

I had my first consultation for a tummy tuck with Dr. Maguire earlier this summer. A week or two later, I scheduled my surgery. I had my pre-op consultation on 09/03/21 where he took another look at me, answered my questions and gave a summery of the procedure. His assistant gave me healing supplements, took my before pictures, and gave me written instructions of what to do before and after the procedure. I am so pleased with Dr. Maguire and his team. This facility is so cleans, always smells good, has nice and oriented team members, and best of all, they offer everything under the same roof. I am currently 3 days from my procedure, I’m so excited and a little nervous too.

This surgery will take place at Premier Surgery Center of Louisville. I will take a covid test tomorrow 09-07-21. This surgery center has been very nice, answering all my questions, keeping me updated, and contacting me with information about the procedure. I should be receiving a pre-op phone call from a nurse a day prior to surgery. So far my experience has been great, and I know I’m in good hands.

I went for surgery on 09-09-21 at Premier Surgery Center of Louisville, with Dr. Sean Maguire. Everything went smoothly. Dr. Maguire is straightforward, professional, kind, and cares for his patients. His team is oriented, kind, helpful, and very professional. The surgery center’s team is also very kind and professional. I’ve had a great experience so far. Today I took a shower early morning and feel much much better. My pain level has decreased and I am draining a lot of fluids. My incision is so far back, which I am so thankful for, because it took so much loose skin from my sides. I am in love with my bellybutton too! I’m so thankful that I found Dr. Maguire and his practice.

Thanks for your update!

How did you shower without getting your incision area wet? And how did you manage your drains in the shower?

I was not allowed to shower for the first 24 hrs. When I had the “ok” to shower, my surgeon said the incision could get wet. Regarding the drains, for the first few days my husband held them for me (I used a shower chair for 3-4 days). After a couple of days I brought in a pouch I bought from amazon to carry the drains in the shower.

SEROMA Built Up

lenny_perez

Today is day 5 post up. Had my consultation because my drains fell out too soon. Dr. Maguire removed the fluid that was accumulated right around my incision area. 50 cc was resting right there!!! I felt so uncomfortable, bloated, my stomach felt weird, jiggly, and it would make water sound when I did rapid movement. Crazy! After the in office drainage with a needle, I feel way better. Dr. Maguire also removed some of the stitches surrounding my bellybutton. My next consultation is on Thursday (day 7 post op). He will be removing the remaining stitches, removing fluids if needed or insert a catheter if I’m producing too much fluids. So far I feel good, pain is like on a 3-4. Not even that, it’s just discomfort, and weird sensation to the area. Still feeling sore on the abdomen. This pics are of today, before I got the seroma drained.
