Plastic Surgery

Hello brothers, I haven't heard many men make mention of having plastic surgery. This something I am considering and just wanted to hear feedback from those who've had it done. What did you have done and what was your experience?

I had a tummy tuck, the vertical and horizontal cut.  Was worth it.  Not very painful to me but others claim it hurts too much.  Use coco butter to help heal.  Do it!

Thank you. At what point did you know you were ready for plastics?

when i felt i did not like the rashes between the rolls of fat.  The itching was bad but it was driving me nuts.

ummmm, you cant work out and fill in with muscles? I plan to start as soon as they say I can lift.. even if i have to dope, j/k  Biggest loser scandle now......

It depends on how much weight that you have lost!  Before I had my plastic surgery last September  the skin on my belly would hang down below my knees! there is no amount of exercise in the world that would fill in that much skin (they removed 17 pounds of skin from my abdomen)

yea i understand that.

I had lower body lift and a breast reduction. it was totally worth it, a couple of weeks of discomfort, very little pain, and excellent results. I was ready at 2 years out.

Thanks Scott and everyone for your replies.

Go for it.  It was a piece of cake compared to other surgeries.  Plastic surgeons are very skilled, that is what you are paying for.  Getting rid of the skin while like lossing the last remnants of being FAT/obese/overweight or whatever you lie to terms what we were when we were all so overweight.  I had the panniculectomy and they cut me from hip bone to hip bone.  No problem whatsoever.  I waited one year from being postop with the Gastric Bypass.  If you had to pay out of pocket, the expense would have been about $7000.  Mine was paid for by insurance.  Most will pay for the panniculectomy, but when you get into lower body lifts and other more intensive procedures, that is when the insurance companies start to not pay - they view that as more cosmetic.  In extreme cases of severe severe obesity they will pay beause of the skin irritations etc.

If you friend me, you can look at my postop surgery pictures where I am healed up and there is a good shot of my waist line and what it looks like now.  It is awesome - I now have the stomach of a 21 year old young buck college kid - hard asa rock.  My surgeon did awesome job.
