I don't come here often as not to many post here anymore. Hope your surgery went well and you are taking care of yourself. Just remember to give yourself a time to heal and keep your protein up

I need it all!!! I've had a body lift already but won't be going back to the same doctor. Any recommendations? I'm in the US but will travel anywhere. Also, are people doing BBL's for flat bottoms? My body lift included the procedure where they fold your back flaps to give you more projection. It didn't do much.

I see that Dr. Peter Fishers retired. I like how his thigh lift covered the calf too. I haven't seen you many doctors do that.

Does such surgery costs much?

Hey there

What is a LBL & what does it intale?

Hello everyone!

It has been sometime since I posted on this website. I had Gastric Bypass Roux-En-Y in January 2017. I have lost 130 pounds and have maintained the weight loss for the last 31/2 years. I look and feel great! The gastric bypass bypass was life-changing for me.

I have had a consult with a plastic surgeon. He put in all the paperwork for the panniculectomy. Ultimately, I?m going to have a complete abdominalplasty. Pay the difference. The problem is OHIP initially denied the authorization to cover cost. My panni hangs half over my mons pubis (mons Venus). I hated how it sits in my lap while on the toilet. I have had rash/excoriation & odour. I have purchased just about every over the counter sprays and powders to keep the area clean. Without too much success. I wear compression panties to hold it in but that is ultimately causing irritable bowel from the intestinal compression.

I can?t wait to look down and see my Mons Pubis TMI

I have gone back to see the surgeon.

HE ENCOURAGED APPEAL!

COVID HAPPENED

I submitted a very well written appeal letter. Submitted a letter from my general practitioner and a letter from the weight management clinic that initially referred me to the plastic surgeon.
Great news!! I finally got approval. I upgraded to a full abdominalplasty. I am paying for half. I am very excited and can?t wait. My surgery is in 3 weeks, February 19th. 2021. I am a little bit anxious as I am a widow. Two of my sons are away at school. Just me and my 14-year-old at home now.

Looking for advice. The dos and don?ts before and after tummy tuck... Looking for recommendations that helps you through the process. What did you do and would do differently? If you were to do it again? What would you do differently?
Hoping everything goes well.

I have done quite a bit of research online. Just looking for additional feedback.

Thank you

Sincerely

Rose ?
