[rollargirl 210]

I think you have to be 30-35 bmi in order to do song lee with him.. FYI but I could be wrong?

 

Is song lee the "spider" lol ... Glad you're doing well - hope I'm as lucky as you!

There is a big difference between a single incision and a hidden incision. Make sure to clarify with the SURGEON and not a coordinator what you are signing up for. The single incision makes sense if you know you are getting a Tummy Tuck and don't want even tiny scars showing.

Hi Imdeborah, according to the coordinator and to all the research I've done thus far the Spider technique is done through or right above the navel with a single incision, so in this case, single and hidden are synonymous. Even if, as I suspect in my own case, there is stretching, scarring and darkening of my navel I still find that to be highly preferable to the alternative. But I have asked for pictures of procedures that he has performed in order to see for myself what the incision looks like. Thanks for your concern.

I want the 'spider' technique as well! It's supposed to be less pain & healing.....Sign me up!

[rollargirl 210]

Me too! With less pain, healing time and scars its a no brainer?! It does take longer, but what do I care ill be out like a light lol

[Molly3 495]

Rollargirl- have you seen the Doctors tv show? It featured the spider technique!

[rollargirl 210]

No, we don't get that here but I have seen it when I was back in Toronto for a visit - maybe I can search that episode on you tube?!

I was just watching it while u posted that!!! I love you! That is amazing to actually watch - and even more amazing that she's on TV 2 days later lol .... That makes me feel that my journey home will be more bearable than I originally thought Lol

Thanks soooo much for showing me that - going to forward to my parents ????

That's one of my surgeons, Dr. Q. They're great. I didnt consider the spider because it takes longer and I was more worried about nausea and such from being under longer. My scars are healing to the point they won't be noticeable so I dont regret opting for the normal route.

But I think this is a great option if you scar badly. Just make sure you go to a surgeon that has done this technique before.

[rollargirl 210]

That's so cool that's your dr! Haha ... Yes the coordinater said he's done a hundred ... I think my breast reduction was a few hours and I wasn't nauseas after that (from memory) ... I have to go back to work a little over a week later (mom duties) so faster healing is great for me!

Wow I loved that video, thanks for posting!

Decided to remove the email I received from the Doctor because there was so many mixed reviews about what was said in the email I posted. As of today, I will be having the signle-incision surgery. I will make sure to update my experience on the website so we can have more post on "Single-incision".

My email from Dr. Garia regarding "Single-Incision Surgery".

 

Dr. Fernando Garcia Govea.

 

Hello Elizabeth!! I'm happy to see you so excited and I am too because your trusting me to be part of your new life! And for that I thank you. Most of the patients with single incision have been done to mexican patients that why you wont find many information. But let me tell you that this surgery is done thru the belly button and it size is from 1 1/2 to 2 inches long and the purpose is only cosmetic. Also the symptoms are more painful with this kind of surgery than with the usual 4 or 5 incisions surgery. And yes we always leave a draiange tube too. Your BMI should be less than 40 and have to do a more strict pre-op diet and have no surgery on abdomen.

 

I hope I answer all your questions' date=' if not please contact me again.

 

A pleasure to meet you and see you soon[/quote']

 

So per Dr. Garcia there is more pain and no shortened recovery with the single incision? The purpose is strictly cosmetic? Not that it matters for me, my surgery is over. Besides I will have plenty of loose skin and stretch marks! Cosmetic means nothing until I'm ready to nip/tuck.
