Amazing results. Uneventful post-op period. I rode my bike 8 miles day 4 post-op and 5 miles day 5 post-op. Back to they gym in one week. Activity is not restricted in anyway. Bruising was gone at 2 weeks and minor swelling at the end of the day Getting lots of compliments and even more "looks."

I am day one post-op tummy tuck incision extension and lipo of the flanks. So far so good! After the local anesthesia wore off the incisions burned so I took some pain meds and went to bed.
Today there is some swelling and slight discomfort. I only took 800mg of advil twice today and then 1 percocet at bed time. Not really that bad. I was up and active most of the day but I did take a two hour nap. I have a two small kids (3 &5) and I was able to handle them both by myself the day if surgery and today. I can already see amazing results even with the swelling. Dr. Giles is amazing!! I will post some pictures soon.

I am going back in two weeks to have the TT extended around the hips to remove the rest of the loose skin and lipo the flanks ($3500). The improvements over the last year have only gotten better. I go to the gym 2-3 days a week and am very active the other 4-5 days. The hips and flanks have not responded to exercise/diet. The scar is long, but mostly faded and hides under panties/bathing suit.

Thank you for the your story and the updates I myself have the same situation going on just found out in my TT consult 2 weeks ago that I have an umbilical hernia and I went to see 2 other dr's plus my Gyn on Monday my husband said that's enough with the medical opinions he says you have the hernia so lets take care of it so I've decided to go ahead with the TT and lipo my flanks but im already in pain everyday and i guess its from this hernia (so they say). With this hernia im scared I guess of the pain, my GYN says if it is a hernia its very small but its more muscular pain and I've had this pain since Sept 2012 when I started working out but then I stop because I couldn't do anything with my stomach which during my boot camp classes I may have develop this hernia
