Perth Tummy Tuck


Recommended Posts


Hi all, it's been a long time coming but now it's only 6 days to go! I'm having a TT, BL, BA in the one surgery, feeling nervous and excited at the same time. I went into Breast Care today and bought 1 x bra, body garment and the gel tape......$588 later OUCH! Not long now, hospital forms in, surgeon paid, button up pj's bought. Need to do a big food shop for hubby and get the school uniforms ironed. Starting to feel real :)

Hi all, well here I am 24 hours after my op and I'm feeling fine. I had hears so many horror stories about having a TT BA BL AR all in the one op. I am feeling quite dizzy still my blood pressures low but as long as I keep up with the pain meds I feel fine. Surgery was 4 1/2 hours then quite a bit of time in recovery. Had no vomiting so far so pretty hdppy about that. I'm on a clear fluid diet so that's pretty boring just want some real food. As for my boobs I LOVE THEM! I ended up getting 410cc both sides XF so love the size of them. I was so worried that I would end up huge but I'm not at all I now have upper pole fullness. My tummys tender as he did a bit of lipo as well...... Wishing next weeks ladies all the best for their surgeries xx

Hope your feeling ok Honeybee? :)

hi feeling a tad sore today. Had the Iv removed last night as it had moved in my arm. This morning I have woken up quite sore if I have the pain needs I vomit even with the anti nausea tabs . Have to get on top of that before I can go home. Up for a shower later if I don't have too  much nausea. Hopefully home tomorrow or Wednesday . I'm all swollen above the bell y button it feels all squishy . Boobs have gotten even bigger, hard as rocks and the size of 2 bowling balls

Honeybee oh hope the nausea goes away soon. Did you get an item number fro breast lift?   I think if I get a reduction as well I can get an item number and get some back from medicare but at this stage I only have an item number for the TT.  I have top hospital cover so I am hoping I won't have to pay for the hospital stay or theatre costs.  I'm so confused about the pricing.

I'm sure this will all seem a distant memory soon when you are happy with the results.

Sounds like your recovery is a bit rough. Can they put some anti nausea medication directly into your IV or even by injection? After my tonsils were removed I couldn't move without throwing up it was really bad but once I was given a second dose in my IV ( the first was an injection which didn't work) I felt much better. Hope that you're feeling a little better soon.

How exciting! How are you going at the moment? Any pics to share? 

I was in hospital until day 9 today is day 11. The boobies aren't sore at all just itchy and swollen as if my milk is coming in. My belly is another story, very sore indeed. I have nerves in the stitch line that get caught and that pain is horid Hubby has another week off work  I know if a few months time it would have all been worth it :)

Nice! I can't wait for a toned looking flat tummy. Mine is going to get worse the more weight I lose (and I have a lot to lose). I am carrying most of my excess weight in my stomach and hips. 

Can I ask if you had a catheter for during surgery and when it was removed? (If you don't mind answering of course). I had one for my c section and removing it didn't hurt so that's one less thing I'm worried about.
