Guest guest Posted September 10, 2003 Report Share Posted September 10, 2003 I was 15 months out when I first had plastic surgery. My first surgery was tummy tuck with incisional hernia repair. I also had the excess skin of my thighs removed. To be honest with you the thighs are not the prettiest but the surgery performed its goal-to remove the excess skin. The pain of my tummy tuck was pretty bad for me. Not all people react the same. I walked hunched over a little for 3 months because of tight skin. I had my second set of surgeries when I was 20 months out. I had breast lifts and my arms done. I also had a couple of fluid bodies removed from one thigh. I developed more fluid bodies that had to be drained (just serous fluid) often but the problem resolved itself. The pain from my second surgeries was much easier to overcome. I do have to say that I was unable to really raise my arms comfortably above shoulder level for several weeks. I hope this information helps you out.
