Thanks for all your good wishes. I'm working on getting a new computer as I need to replace the museum piece I have at home. then I can upload some pictures. when I first went for a consult, my surgeon told me I may need some revisions. He likes to be a little more conservative because it's easier to take more skin later than it is to take off too much and have major issues with wound closing. I'm glad that my insurance covered the TT and thigh lift. Got good documentation on the horrible chafing rashes on my inner thighs. This will be billed as a revision and not another thigh lift. I still have about a handful of loose skin still there. Last year, I was cut from hip to hip and up to between my breasts, and from crotch to just above my knee on both inner thighs. The first 1.5 weeks were a little rough. Actually, the worst part were the 2 drains that I had coming out of my crotch. My surgeon said he like to place them there because it's a good place to hide the scars. They were in for 12 days. They rubbed against the opening in the compression garment. I couldn't take a shower until they were out. Yuck! But I would do it again in a heartbeat. Not having the 3 stomachs hanging down and just having my body look like a sharpee, is well worth it. But I will get some pictures posted once I get a new computer. Thanks for the well wishes!
