Question:
Lordy. I went to my ps yesterday to ask about a revision on my abs. I sitll have the "hangover" on the top of my jeans. I'm needing to "tuck it in" (gross) when I sit. The PS said that I needed a TT to rid of that. He said most of it is and the only way to achieve the flat ab look is to get a TT. He suggested a full TT instead of a mini, saying the mini would leave skin hanging over the top of my jeans. I'm all signed up for the 24th with some of the back (thanks, Cocoadiva, this is truly because of your posts of the roll free back you now have) and replacement of one of my implants. I think Olga had a TT with her lipo? Not sure. I have been busy looking around the TT board for information, but I feel like I know you ladies better. hhmm... I know you have drains in for a week. Where the heck do the drains sit when you are in a for your boob, back and tummy?? Anybody here know about FTT's?.
Answer:
Blondecat, I totally think doing the back is worth it. Only if your PS says it okay with the and not toomuch at one time. I had no idea how much of an improvement the back alone would do.
Had you already had lipo? Could your PS not tell before that you had that needed to be "tucked" and couldnt be resolved with the lipo? And where will you tuck the drains?
Answer:
I had a FTT after lipo to the abs! I wish I had done that first rather than the lipo. My PS doesnt do lipo with a TT so I have to go back in March and get some loose fat taken out...which is ok cause I dont have allot of fat there anyways! I had drains for a week....the came out my hip and my PS taped the tube to my hip so when I moved I didnt pull on it or nothing. Its easier than it looks with ther drains..they are on a long tube so you have more enough slack to put them down when you change or go to the bathroom. I found my BA to be more painful than he TT, I was an average case. I'm 6 monhts PO now.
Answer:
Thanks so much, Mysty! Yes, it is "loose fat" instead of only . I also wish I had the FTT to start with. I also had a BA and to the flanks at the same time. I don't know if the PS should have been able to tell at the time if a FTT would be needed for all the results I truly wanted? No sense rehashing through all of that, though. Perhaps with long tubes on the drains as you say, they can drape out the bottom edge of the ? At 6 months, PO are you happy you had the FTT done? Did it give you what you wanted to achieve? Are you pain free now or still have some remnant pain? Thanks so!
Answer:
Yes the tubes are long enough to do this!!! I'm so hapopy I did this...I have the tummy I wanted. The recovery was easier than I ever thought....the day I got home I was able to get up and walk around. The next day I was up and walking around the culd a sac....the kicked my butt worse! All in all I would all the procedures again if I had to they have given me more confidence than I expected and best of all I like what I see in the mirror!
