Hello all I'm counting down the days until my Tummy Tuck ( December 21 ) what are some of the must have things i will need for a easier recovery?

Thank you all I'm a week out from my surgery getting excited and nervous at the same time wish me luck!

Good question? I'm having a tummy tuck on December 21th and I haven't told any of my co/workers I feel like it's none of their business.

Could you do updates just curious on how you are doing?

Yes thank you just haven't been able to find a lot about the Fleur de lis tummy tuck

Is there any good site to research about tummy tucks is there anything else besides RealSelf ?

Hello I finally got my date for my tummy tuck and would like some feed back to my questions # 1 will I need a walker ? #2 will I need a recline ? #3 what else will I need that will help me be comfortable for the first couple of days?

For those of you whom have had tummy tuck just curious if you go down in pants size

Hello joteddie I had my gastric sleeve in 2013 lost 80 lbs and have maintained pretty good probably gained about 10 lbs back due to back surgery and not able to be active.....I have in the past two year document and gone to doctor for severe cases of rashes I didn't think I would get approved and was surprised [emoji15] when I received my approval letter in the mail last week. I'm hoping to loose the 10lbs I've gained before I have the surgery in December. Good luck to you

I'm interested to I just got approved from insurance for Tummy Tuck and thigh lift and would like information

I was approved by my insurance for code 15830 + code 15847 and a thigh lift I'm so thankful that it got approved!

You look amazing

You look Great

Hello all I was recently approved for a Panniculectomy code 15830 Excision,excessive skin and subcutaneous tissue ( includes lipectomy) abdomen,infraumbilical panniculetomy has any one had this procedure ? I'm not understanding all the medical terms

Sjfink May I ask where you got your surgery in Seattle?

Were you approved for the TT or just the Panniculectomy

Do the doctor make more money if you pay for the surgery out of pocket I'm just curious because at my appointment I asked it they could try and get approval for the tummy tuck and was told that it would be denied because it considered cosmetic so I called my insurance and they said I do have coverage and gave me additional codes so I gave that information to the doctor office and they said insurance would not cover me so I'm just a little confused to be honest my upper stomach as more fat [emoji23]

Yes BIgdog Bryan I totally agree with you !

Thank you My quote for the upper tummy was $9000 that is just the doctor fee not including Hospital Fees I think I just might have to search around I'm in Seattle Washington area and have BCBSIL anyone in the group in my area??
