I am 55, 5'6, 144 clothes, 36dd mentor implants At 24 plastic surgeon said they could remove 2 stretch marks, 54 stitches later, awful, why the ugly tattoo. 2 babies. At 25 had a hysterectomy; accident blunt force caused a clot,why scar under belly button. Weight 164 scoliosis surgery, I work out & active, down to clothed at 144. My inner thigh gained some weight, I Can't lose; still, flab working out, and need help to look good again.
I have loose skin on my lower abdominal region that folds when I suck in or sags when I bend over it. It seems to have gotten better over years but weight gain from youth (I was high 200 at 17 and lost 100 pounds). Ive gained muscle I also have scoliosis. I feel like this impacts on where fat stored and makes my loose skin worse. Im just looking to see what I can do, what workouts should I tummy tuck would back surgery help skin. I also heard laser surgery for loose skin for people with less of it?
My current weight is 270. Ive had 2 wls w/ a 110 lb wl. BC of a car accident I have severe back pain. DDD, scoliosis, two failed spinal fusion/laminectomy surgeries, lumbar radiculopathy, disc bulges/herniations. I get spine injections, use lidocaine patches and PT doesnt help. Will my Aetna POS II plan approve abdominoplasty for therapeutic reasons. Studies show removal of excess skin can improve chronic back pain. Exercising is painful, I'm on LTD & my orthopedic surgeon has me on restrictions.
59, 168 lbs. I lost over 100 lbs between 2011/12. My weight has pretty much stayed in the same range (between 150-165) since the major weight loss with one or two brief spikes above 165 (max of 185). I have lumbar scoliosis which leaves me with an imbalance on my left side. I believe my posture plays into the hang of my belly. 2/3 docs ive spoken to rec. a TT, however one says with proper aftercare I should snap back. I want kids in 5-6 years, and I dont want multiple TTs.
In the photo I am standing straight; it just looks like I'm not because my sides are so uneven. I was at my regular doc for a normal appt and she checked me for scoliosis and there's nothing. My hips are straight, my spine is straight. But my sides in relation to my hips are so different. The one on the right is how it should look (more defined hip.) If I bind the upper abdomen very tightly in order to pull the left upper side in, I can make the two sides match, but it doesn't stay.
Hypothyroid since age 12 (i am now hyperthyroid as of recent). mom was given i131 & treated with propuriacil when preg with me. Had a large kidney stone lodged in ureter at age 19 (ureteroscopy and laser). Endometriosis (laperoscopy). Got pregnant right away, had my daughter in sept 2013. Got a rectovaginal fistula from childbirth, so that was my third surgery. I have ADHD,Heart murmur (leaky valves), TMJ, scoliosis, Aura migraines from hormones or if I bonk my head.
4 csections. I have scoliosis that really kicked up in 2008 after an emergency epidural for the c-section. Ever since I have had chronic back pain. Under my medical coverage benefits it says :Under many benefit plans reconstructive services and surgery are covered when the reconstruction services are being performed for one of the following primary purposes 1) to relieve severe physical pain caused by an abnormal body structure.
So I'm 22 years old, and have had two children in the past 3 years, my youngest is 4 months. I just went to my doctor for chronic lower back pains (I also have scoliosis, so any back pain kills), and I was told this was due to my abdominal muscle separation. Do I need to have a tummy tuck to repair this? And would it be covered by insurance (Medicaid) since it's causing medical problems for me? If not, is there any way to finance with my bad credit?
