What Was Your Plastic Surgery Experience?

[shrcumm 953]

I would like to Know if Anyone Has Had Plastic Surgery To Remove Loose Skin Around The Stomach Area?

How Painful Was It and What Was The Healing Process?

And Are You Happy With The Results?

Thanks Much!!! I Lost So Much Weight and Was Approved For The Surgery Just Confused About Doing It?

I just had it done about 4 weeks ago, but mine was a lot more involved. I had about 12 pounds of excess skin removed/tummy tuck/massive hernia repair combination.

I won't lie, it was definitely painful. The first couple of days home from the hospital I definitely had a couple "oh gawd what have I done to myself?" moments. But around day 10, the pain subsided considerably and I was like "oh hey I look kinda awesome!"

I actually posted my before and after pics here if you'd like to see them. It's pretty dramatic: http://www.lapbandtalk.com/topic/169905-tummy-tuck-before-after-pics/

I'm definitely thrilled with my results and think it was a very good decision. I'm just dealing with some other physical issues from the surgery that aren't common. I think if you're only having skin removal the recovery will be a lot easier and quicker.
