Guest guest Posted December 6, 2008 Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 Dear Had the full tummy tuck, brilliant, do not hesitate. Did find it was painful (had other cosmetic surgery since, which was not so bad) but worth it every single time. Joan 14th April 2004. From: galcommando@... Date: Thu, 4 Dec 2008 23:08:59 +0000 Subject: Plastic surgery/ Tummy Tuck Hi, I am writing to gather your advice if you have had plastic surgery especially tummy tuck, I am almost 4 years out and although I promised myself I would not have surgery after surgery to for cosmetic reasons, I can no longer stand this gross sagging belly pouch. I have scheduled a consultation for a mommy make over but am not sure if I will go for it or just the tuck, I have lost all the weight and the skin just will not go away. Is there anyone out there that did the surgery and has positive or negative input. Your stories and opinions mean so much to me. Thanks, Greene Dr. R and Dr. P 3/4/05 221/120 _________________________________________________________________ Imagine a life without walls.

I had a tummy tuck...and 3 revisions...and need another one. The skin is like a rubber band that's dry-rotted, it keeps stretching out but not back and grows and grows and grows. My initial tuck left me tighter than a drum...now, not so much! Do not expect perfect and lasting results if you were heavy all your life and lost over 100 lbs. *** MAKE SURE your surgeon **SPECIALIZES ** in weight loss patients! It makes all the difference in the world from the cut to the closing stitches. We require different stitching techniques. Trust me, I'm in it for over $75,000 cash out-of-pocket of plastic surgery (includes original surgeries plus all the CORRECTIVE work)!

Guest guest Posted December 7, 2008 Report Share Posted December 7, 2008 What's the difference in a tummy tuck and a full tummy tuck? I'm going for the LifeStyle Lift for my face in 2 weeks and plan on a tummy tuck in the future. I haven't checked into the different varieties of tummy tucks available, so any details or descriptions would be appreciated.
