Things here are great! This week I had a paniculectomy. The surgery lasted around 3 hours and I was discharged from the hospital the following morning. Home resting and enjoying life :D

 

So how have things been in your life? What's new?? Drop an update and a pic and let's catch up!

Cool! Was that a panni that u had or a fleur de lys TT? Did you get muscle tightening done? I thought panni was only the horizontal scar, but I see you have a vertical and what looks like a new belly button. Hope your recovery goes well.

Yes I had the two part TT done. No muscle tightening or any of that but I did get some really swell staples and tubes as a parting prize :D

If you didn't have any muscle tightening,  you didn't have a tummy tuck.  You just had skin removal across the whole abdomen (as opposed to only the lower abdomen with the panniculectomy). Abdominoplasty, but definition, includes muscle tightening.

It is a much easier recovery without muscle work, though, because the muscle tightening hurts like hell.
