Can You Hide/tuck/tape Excess Skin?



Recommended Posts

I won't be getting plastic surgery so I was wondering if there are any products out exist like "excess skin duct tape" that could be used to lift up skin. I'm particularly worried about a dance costume that I have to wear.

Spanx has so many different products that can really smooth you out. I love them. I want a boob job/tummy tuck eventually ~ but for now its Spanx for me.

I posted this a while back.

If anyone in their community is willing to contact a BURN CENTER in their area Like a Children's Hospital. Contact the Chief Surgeon, and ask him in a nice way, if you donate your skin, would he donate his time to take it.

Children's Hospital of Michigan told me to contact them when I was ready to do it. The surgeon assured me that he would do all the surgery for free himself. Included Hospital stay. That's what I will do when the time is rite. You might want to venture out, and talk to the BOSS of a Burn Unit, they need the skin.

If one says no, I would not stop with that. But TALK TO THE HEAD SURGEON. It's his/her Decision. No one else's 2 cents even matters. I learned that when I worked in Foster Care, and had allot of Burn Patients. Sometimes others said what they wanted, and he came along and said the complete opposite, and what he said mattered.

So if you want it bad enough,,, I would check into this.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
