josephine 1 Posted June 4, 2007 Liz, I am confused. I had a Tummy Tuck and a breast lift on May 9th and I only have the hip to hip incision for my tummy tuck. What is the incision above the belly button for? I also got a new belly button. I will be swollen for up to 6 months and can't wait until I can sleep without these girdles and bras but until then I will be lacking sleep. I also do not have pain either as I can still barely feel my incision area. I do feel my breast incisions but I still don't feel my stomach. My belly button is still big and that is to determine the amount of swelling that I still have but at least I can see my belly button. Once I lost my weight my button disappeared. It seems as though you hardly have any swelling and that is a good thing. Josephine Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
leajo03 0 Posted June 4, 2007 You are looking great. please show us what it looks like in a month. I have a question How much does something like that cost? I know I will have to have it done. You are already looking flat. wait till you put on your new clothes. Good for you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Josephine Hi Josephine. the incision upwards and above the tummy button is where they took skin away from my front which there for pulls in my sides where i had alot of loose skin, and pulls in my sides giving me my body shape back. Im glad that you are not suffering any pain , as im in a fair bit of pain still at the moment and also on alot of pain killers. The pictures are a little deceiving as i do have alot of swelling and this varies from day to day, im looking forward to getting into smaller clothes but with the swelling im still wearing my old ones. This will all come i time, i also just like u wear a body stocking, and it gives me alot of support, which i feel i really need at the moment.

TracyinKS 7 Posted June 6, 2007 Thanks for posting your pics! I find it very interesting. This may be in my future in a couple years......... even swollen you belly looks AWESOME! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blulili 0 Posted June 7, 2007 Liz: Thanks so much for posting your before and after pics. I think that there are alot of us that don't know anyone that has had a TT or PS, and it's awesome to see the HUGE difference that that can make. To be honest, I think that you're going to turn out awesome after the swelling goes down. Seriously...even swollen at just a few days post-op (in the second pic) the difference and your shape is startling. I (along with alot of people on here) can't wait to see what you'll look like in a couple of months. Congratulations! -Lili Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

foodstampchamp 3 Posted June 8, 2007 First of all I have to say- Sugarplum you look FANTASTIC!!!! I am set to have my abdominalplasty and boob job August 29th. I have been keeping a log under "beginning of abdominalplasty/boob job. It is very slow going blog thus far but it does contain the prices that I will be paying and such for the person who asked that question earlier in the thread. I cannot wait to look as fantastic as those of you who have posted their Tummy Tuck pics so far. You all are truly an inspiration. Not to mention hotties now.

Fran 1 Posted June 8, 2007 You look wonderful. Did it hurt? Did insurance cover it? May I ask how much weight you have lost? Thanks/ Fran Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
