When Will I Be A Candidate For Tummy Tuck?

Ally - I was terrified of how painful it would be also. And actually it wasnt as bad as I had myself psyched up for. You are on so many pain meds right at the beginning that you sleep through the worst pain of it. I had my surgery on friday the 10th and I really dont recall much until the following Thursday. I am 10 days out now and my tummy is still tight and I know when I have over done it, but it isnt painful.

Everyone is different. I had no pain with my TT or my LBL. My Doctor uses the epidural and twilight sleep. If I had not had an incision, I would have never known I had major surgery - except for my extremly flat and beautiful Tummy!

I got my TT done a year ago. It was approved one year after banding when I had lost 85lbs. I had hanging skin, etc.
