Question:
Hi everyone, I posted this question on the TT board and no one answered so evidently no one has had this done so thought I would try here. I had a FTT on Nov 3 and am happy but now have a ledge above incision and PS is doing on it on the 22nd to remove it. Just wondering if anyone has had this done and is happy with it. Thanks for any info. Jeri

Answer:
I had a FTT & BA in March and am getting the same procedure done January 16th. I think its common to have to get this done after the swelling goes down if the isn't tight enough. I am also having of my flanks, inner & outer thighs and neck on the 16th. I wasn't planning to anything other than the excess above my incision..which my PS would have done at no cost..but decided to do the other after he mentioned that he could do it at the same time and how nice it would look. Plus I figure while I'm under I might as well do these other areas at the same time and my PS is giving me a great deal. My husband is mad about the extras I added so I sold some of my investments to pay for it myself. I have heard that lipo is a piece of cake compared to the FTT & BA at the same time. I did great with that, so i'm sure I will be fine. Good luck!! I'm sure you will be much happier to see it all gone and have your tummy be completely flat. I have 3 kids and the last two are 12 1/2 months apart. Being it my mid thirties my body fell apart afterwards. I am hoping this will make me look like it did before the pregnancies. Didn't help matters that I recently had my thyroid removed for nodules suspected to be cancer, which turned out it wasn't so now I am trying to get the hormone levels right to make my metabolism normal. Anyway, I am rambling...so I will end this.

Hey Noodles - Looks like you and I will be under the knife the same day. Good luck to you!! We love success stories, so be sure to post your before and after pics. (Which reminds me that I don't think I have a good pre-op pic of my lower legs - thanks for the reminder...sorta )
Answer:
I saw my PS yesterday and for the TT follow up. Things are healing very well and the reults are just what I wanted but he did have concern that bothered him. On my tummy I have loose fat that didnt reattach to the muscle....no big deal he wants to just hit with ...really quick and its just the obliques, wich will show the muscle definition more. He also wants to go around and do a little are above my butt and touch up the flanks.....this will better the flanks and give my butt more of a curve (that section abpove your butt that dips in)! He was happy to see the but said its very common for lipo to follow a TT!
