9 days post op pics

[kaysonsmom 59]

I had my panni 9 days ago and can finally stand up straight enough to snap some pics. Still quite swollen but feel so much better than before.

That's great! Congratulations!

You look fabulous but I have a question why didnt you wait to loose all your weight first? I would be afraid to drop the 29 lbs in fear it would loosen that lovely tight look you have, also it seems like some surgery, kudos for you for going for it!

[kaysonsmom 59]

Im done losing weight. My doc wanted me at 175 and ive been there for 6 months. Yes i would like to tone but i don't want to lose a lot more weight. Im happy where Im at.

congrats... hard to tell from the pics but I was wondering is the incision a lil higher than most?? Would your panties cover it??

[kaysonsmom 59]

It probably wouldn't cover on my sides but i think she had to do the incision that way to make sure i didn't have the "dog ears." Im not worried about it. Im glad i don't have skin slapping my thighs when i try to run.

How many pounds of skin did they remove?

[kaysonsmom 59]

About 5 lbs

You look great! I think your results are fantastic already - and as the swelling goes down they will be even better. Yes, the incision goes around the sides but it seems totally worth it to me too - no dogs ears, great contour, and the scar will be faded so that with a little time you will barely notice. Your incision looks really nice, too - straight and perfect. I'm so happy with my extended Tummy Tuck - I can only imagine you will feel similarly with your results! Congrats.

Just a panni! Got my tape (purple looking stuff in pic) taken off today and my incision looks amazing. Im 17 days post op today and feeling great. Not much pain anymore. Love it!

Can you take an updated pic? i was just curious because im thinking of doing just the Panni since i want to still have kids but i cant deal with this stomach...i dont see the point in the full Tummy Tuck if having a kid would destroy it. Plus insurance will most likely cover the Panni and i would just need to pay extra for my boobs!! You look great by the way.

[kaysonsmom 59]

I will post an updated pic tomorrow. Having kids was my concern also. I would like to have more but not anytime soon. My doc said it shouldn't be an issue if i wait a yr or 2. I didn't go through all of this for nothing.
