loridee11 522 Posted November 2, 2008 Hey all, I thought I'd post a couple before and after pics following my extended Tummy Tuck (vertical and horizontal incision) and breast lift. The two pictures are the day before surgery and two weeks after. I'm almost three weeks out now and continue to look even better. A little background - I had the lapband surgery in January of 2007 and had lost just over 130 lbs prior to my plastic surgery. The Dr. took 8 lbs of skin from my abdomen, but we didn't do any liposuction. I'm probably going to take these down in a couple of days... Hope these are helpful! ~Lori Plastic Surgery Pictures, Videos, Photos, Pics, Before, After, Cosmetic Surgery Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michee 2 Posted November 2, 2008 Thanks for posting you look awesome, your tummy is gonna look even better in a few weeks. I LOVE having a flat stomach, you are gonna LOVE buying new clothes. It is hard not to buy everything, because let's face it, everything looks good when you have a flat stomach and perky boobs I am sooooooooo happy for you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mimilou2004 13 Posted November 2, 2008 Lori, thank you so much for posting your pictures. And congratulations on your exceptional weight loss. I love your Boobies-did you get implants, too, or just a lift? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
loridee11 522 Posted November 2, 2008 Hey :biggrin: Thank you for the feedback. I had a lift only. I was in a DDD before surgery and it looks like I'll be a C now, which is perfect. I can't wait to go buy a pretty bra --- and everything else in the store :cool2: Just have to wait for the swelling to mostly subside. I keep hearing 6 weeks <sigh> ... Must be patient... ~Lori Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mimilou2004 13 Posted November 3, 2008 Well, yours turned out so well, I am not going to get implants, just the lift. I am a tube sock D and being a B is just fine with me. Mimi PS I hope you post more pictures in a few weeks as healing progresses. I would love pretty bras and no underwire someday!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mrskrzyz 1 Posted November 4, 2008 You must be so pleased... and rightfully so!!! That's amazing!!! I hope for a great turnout myself. My doc won't do a tummytuck and lift at the same time. He belives the body should heal one area at a time. So I'll be waiting for the lift... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
