Default Tummy Tuck Pics before and after

OK - I had posted pics 10 days post op and I was thrilled with the results then - but now, swelling has gone down and I'm ever more thrilled. Someone had PM'd me and asked for post op pics so here I am - the day before the tummy tuck and 4 months post op. Yeah, and I'm in a bikini .. . NOT for public viewing - I had an open RNY - so I have the scar in the front - the other curves - those are my abds. The RNY scar was revised when I had my plastics - so it's fresh again . . . and a lot thinner. The last pic is from a shindig at the Governor's mansion last night - totally fun. If anyone has any personal tummy tuck q's feel free to PM me. I had an extended abdominoplasty . . . one that went all the way around - also known as a belt limpectomy I think.

Wow excellent job on the surgery and you look amazing. I agree...in a few more months it will look even better.

You barely notice the RNY scar at all...hope mine fades like that!

holy crap thanks for posting. You look damn amazing. I don't have the words. So if you don't mind me asking these pics that are 4 months out would you say you look alot better in them than say 3-4 weeks out?

My doc and everyone around keeps telling me it gets better and better as time go's on but, I just don't see how thats possible. Is there really that much swelling ...how can I tell looking at myself?

Also how long did you leave your binder on? I was thinking two weeks on mine. How long did you leave your drains in? How many did you have? How long before you could start working out again?

Did you drop a dress size because of the skin removal? How much skin in lbs did they remove from your midsection?

Sorry I know I just asked like 20 questions but, its cause im going through my stuff right now and im full of questions for people who are 4-5-6 months post op.
