5 years out mommy makeover- thoughts, scars etc
WORTH IT$18,000
I always wanted a pic of scars after 5 years when I was doing my research- so here they are
Someone at work called me and asked me would I recommend it as they were thinking about doing it. I really struggled to answer. On one hand looking at the pics I’m like oh yeah I look better but it was a big time commitment, lots of money, and I don’t like the scars. I now realize I’m someone who is perfectionistic and will tend to focus on the negative( ie the scars). So if have to work on loving my imperfect self then I could’ve done that with how I looked before. I looked fine in flattering swimsuits and clothes before and less good naked, and it’s basically the same now.
If I could’ve had a perfect outcome- ie lower scar (partial TT?) and left breast perfect (like the right) then yes I would totally recommend. But no guarantees in this game it seems.

TT scar 2.5 years out
It would have been awesome if could have got it 1 or 2 inches lower-scar is nice and white now but still have to wear higher waist bikini bottoms

Hi, I have also contemplating to get a tummy tuck with Dr Pugash. Is it worth it? Do you have any regrets on having your TT done?
Get surgeon to draw estimated scar line in pen and get several consults IMHO
you can totally get away with a lo cut. your scar is so faded i could hardly see it. i think u should just war what want. if someon sees your scar and aks about it make up a cool story. i have a huge vertical scar on my hip and i tell people i was bitten by a barracuda! with my tummy if its noticeable im going to say i donated an organ

2 .5 years out
Well over 2 years out I'm a bit disappointed. I had a revision for my left breast just under 1 year as it was terribly asymmetrical with uneven nipples (line from right -left breast).
That was annoying as I had a new scar to wait years until it whitened.
But they are still quite assymetric. It's like the left implant isn't fully stable under the left pectoral. I've been sleeping in underwire bras for years now hoping it will scar in, but it still feels like it slips to side lying down. I can feel left implant (but not right) move when I do push-ups. And it's concave under my left armpit compared to the curve under my right arm pit.

I’m wondering what your surgeon had to say about your concerns? I would def go back and ask him why this result occurred and how to to fixit because it’s unusual.
Hey girl. Did you ever go back and talk with your surgeon on how to fix your breasts? I really hope you did. After all that cost....you deserve to be happy with your breasts and to have them look good!!!
