Sylve 47 Posted March 3, 2018 Report Share Posted March 3, 2018 It has been some time between posting now. So Hi.... I just wanted to recap for anyone thinking TT and about the process and healing. Also not all scars are red and huge (This was my main thing that stopped me from having proceedure done years ago. Boy are there some BAD!!! pictures out there) Tummy tucks are not the best idea if you still have more weight to lose. What I mean is its not a quick fix. I had a muscle repair and some skin removed but no new belly button as mine was quite high to start with. I was quite athletic before. So for me personally I needed my muscle use back. The recovery is slow and excercise at the gym very limited. So this being said i actually gained 5 kg for 9 months. At 12month post op i can only just now say my swelling has decreased. But still on ab training days it swells up like bad pms. I also want to review my scar is very slim and i have always done vitamin e oil twice a day. And did dermarolling once a week. Keep fixamol tape on for ages after surgery and Use silicon gel as PS says is ok. And dont train abs for at least 8 months. Worth it 100% Fixed back pain and bowel problems. Lose the weight first then fix the skin 100% Never plan to have kids after. Do all that before. Thoses little munchkins reck more than your tummy!!! So you may need your boobs done too. As you can see my original ba was ruined after 2 babies. Its not worth a quick fix as abdominal fat will always come back if your diet is not in check. Spend the money get a good surgon as a bad scar will be mentally debilitating after all the pain you go through to get a nice flat tummy. My surgon did an amazing job and Im very happy. X ps you have to zoom right in to see scar. Best wishes and surgery to you all. Message if you need answers. I finally have reach 11 months and can only just say im off the roller coaster.

Elle Anderson 45 Posted March 3, 2018 Report Share Posted March 3, 2018 I can see it now but it is very faint and thin, looks like you took great care of your scar. Which silicone gel did you use? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
People 0 Posted July 24, 2018 Report Share Posted July 24, 2018 Ok i need to go and see Dr Widdowson. He did your TT right? I have very little loose skin and been told i cant have full TT. Im also athletic and chose lipo but unfortunately i was left with a small dent that im hoping can get fixed with a mini TT which seems to be what you had.. i also have some muscle separation. Im just so confused with all the choice of surgeons..! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

WantingRhino Perth WA 11 Posted May 2, 2019 Report Share Posted May 2, 2019 Hello! I am looking for a good tummy tuck surgeon around Brisbane. I want to do my homework first, so I am following this thread, there is a great result. Sylve maybe you could get a belly button tattooed on? Your result is spectacular!
