Corset trunkplasty!

[Atsirk85 6]

I had corset trunkplasty in January of 2013. I'm about a month away from being healed. They took all the skin from under my chest down to my pubic line. I will still need some skin off of my back and thighs taken off but I'm pretty happy with the results. I know most get a Tummy Tuck but after losing 160lbs I needed a bit more help than that surgery called for! I have posted a few to show the difference!

How is that similar to or different from a lower body lift with anchor incision? Do you have a horizontal incision as well as vertical or only vertical?

I will be getting both horizontal and vertical incisions in my surgery on August 1.

[Atsirk85 6]

I am cut from under my armpit to the other directly under my breasts. I then have an incision from my right hip down to my left hip and then a line down the middle. They took 6lbs of skin. I'm going back for a lower body lift hopefully soon. This worked for my body. It may not be what another individual needs. It was also $15,000 and its fairly new.

That pic I just posted was a week after surgery. You can see the bruising and how swollen I am but you can see what the incisions look like. No vertical unless under my chest and on my hips! Sorry if its a bit gruesome for anyone.

Thanks! The bulge on your upper thigh, is that from the surgery? Also, how will a lower body lift differ from this?

[Atsirk85 6]

No the bulge is actually my leg. The surgery Made them swell a bit but its bad. I lost a lot of weight (160lbs on a tony frame) and need to get my legs, lower back and hips lifted so the lower body lift will hopefully solve it.

[SkinnyKathy 99]

OK, thanks for the clarification. Will you have all the remaining areas addressed in a single surgery? I am getting:

(1) extended Tummy Tuck with anchor incision, mons lift, arms, breast lift with implants, thigh lip - all on August 1

(2) back and buttocks lift, medial thigh lift - future surgery to be scheduled

I want to get it all over with as quickly as I can!

[Atsirk85 6]

It should! My arms aren't bad and due to me being so young my breasts are actually nice. I wouldn't mind filling them in a bit more but it isn't needed. The lower body lift I am looking into should fix everything but who knows! Fingers crossed! Good luck with your surgery! I hope the recovery is quick and not painful!
