Does anyone have the low profile port?



Recommended Posts

After my weight loss, my traditional port sticks out. It sometimes hurts when I am running. I am having a port revision and getting a new low profile flat port. Has anyone has this revision? If so, did you notice a big change from the traditional port? Was the surgery easier or the same as your original surgery? Anything else I should be aware of?

I have a low profile port and it sticks out like no other. I'm hoping to have it moved/removed during PS.

I had surgery to reposition my port and switch to a low profile and after 6 months it is sticking out just as much as my first one...I should have keptmy original Alien baby and saved money!!! My PS wouldn't touch it and indeed refused to tighten my abs...and didn't give me any money back...I am still mad after 13 months!!!!

Good luck,

Mimi

Ugh. I hope I don't run into this. I hate my port. :(
