3.5 p/o unhappy
Dec 19,2018
I went in for a revision ( from a tummy tuck a year earlier)
My diet and exercise has been good.
The outcome of the last surgery looks like the same result as the first. The P.S I had was board certified in all levels. My mistake was to go back for a revision. I should have interviewed more Plastic surgeon's..However it does get costly($200 or more) just to meet with them for 30 minutes.
I'm very, very unhappy with this.
I did not have the muscles tightened because the Dr. Said I didn't need it due to the fact I never had children.
Ugh. It's so ugly. Am I stuck with this stomachache like this?

My Review of my TT Revision on 12/19/18 Plus More
My experience has been interesting . Here is my journey..
I had visited a board certified PS for lipo and a tummy tuck she agreed about my choices. I went and got a second opinion and this Board certified PS suggested lipo on my flanks ( hips). I chose him. Dec of 2015 I had just lipo done. Recovery went well but sore, My Dr at the time had good manors I had a follow up call ect. I wasn't happy in the long term outcome.
I needed a tummy tuck and wanted to have bigger breasts and I did my research again . I visited a PS and he seemed great but the price tag was way way too much, I went on to visit with one more PS. I went to 3 all together I chose a Dr in Boston Ma . I had my Tummy tuck & lipo and breast implants on Dec 21 2017 . Recovery was long and I was very sore. My PS assistant at the time had called to check in on me. I went in 2 weeks post op. During the visit with the DR it went well he was polite and I had my questions answered . I was pretty happy with most of the outcome. However during the year and hard work & watching my eating the pouch would not go away. I also formed a weird bubble thing just above my bellybutton. I checked in with my PS and asked him what it could be.
He sent me to my PCP to have me then go an have an ultra sound. It was old blood that my body did not absorb. I went back 2 months later because I wanted to have a revision done and have blood bubble removed.
This time my PS seemed different, I felt like he was offended that I was not happy with the pouch that was still with me. I was very polite about my visit and cheerful.
I booked the surgery for Dec 19,2018.
I sent out the check and I called the office 4 days later to make sure it was received .. oh it was .
2 weeks before my surgery the nurse calls . I am sure glad I had experience with this. The nurse only told me the basics. Don'e eat after midnight arrive 1 hr before surgery and wash with the special soap the night and day of.
I knew this was not same nurse , this one was short with me on the phone and mumbled and forgot a few other things NOT to do.
Last year the Nice nurse told me this. Don't eat after midnight ,wash with special soap night before and morning of. NO deodorant ,no creams no make up and if you have any earring's or jewellery on leave it home .
FFW to Dec 19th. I arrived and the nurse greeted me and had me sit in a cold room :( she took my blood pressure . Told me to change and wait. I was lucky to have a thin blanket. I asked her why I wasn't in the other room for pre-op. " This is where you can sit and wait" She comes back( 45 min later) and tells me to go into the other room to get marked. PS comes in he is friendly but a very short visit, Not much explained . I am out of surgery and felt ok . I was the last one for the day . It was close to 4:45pm. The nurse tells me she called my friend and she told me she can't understand why she isn't here yet when she is only 2 miles away. I said bc there are lots of road work and we where in traffic getting here. She does not live 2 miles away. Traffic sucks in Boston, Long story short she wanted to go home, I felt this time around the PS and the staff were rude. I spent a lot of out of pocket money and I was treated rudely . I did not get a call asking how I was , I called the office to ask what to do about the pain, as the pain meds where not helping. The office told me to try Tylenol with the script I was given ,if that does not work I could come into Boston and pick up a new script, HMM How the heck am I going to drive or get into a car with the pain i'm in? I tried the tylenol and sucked up the pain. Still no call.
5 days later here I am writing a short story. I will post pics later. I have a binder on that is fine but it sits right on the 2 drains, Hurts. The Tummy tuck line looks good, I took a shower today, That was fine. I did a lot of leg work outs and I highly suggest doing leg/arm work outs a few months ahead of time.
The lesson I have learned through this, Maybe try one of the PS. that other real self users have used if able to make it to another city.
Not all results are the same, The ones the Dr's post are what we all want to look like but may not be realistic . I also have learned that eating low salt helps, drink lots of water and , walk. Trying to get out of bed hurts and I have came up with away to roll onto my hip and use a cane to push myself up. After 3 says it gets a little less tiresome but still hurts.
That it for now.
