Dr. Kent tummy tuck question.....

Hi There, I had a TT/BL with Dr. Kent last June and I beleive the whole process was about six hours.  Don't worry about the drains they really aren't bad at all.  I came home with four, two in my breast and two in my tummy area.  Depending on the amount of fluid that you have the drains will come out pretty fast.  If you have any questions just call his office, Norma his nurse is great and she will be able to answer all your questions.  After surgery I was taken to a home that Dr. Kent uses for an overnight stay.  I was treated very good, however I barley remember the ride getting there!  My husband wanted to visit me that evening and that was something they did not allow.  It was probably for the best anyway, I slept on and off most of the day! Good luck with your surgery, you will be thirlled with your results. Kathy

Thanks Kathy....I am really excited for it. I did call and I was wrong....they said 4 hours for the tummy tuck and 1 hour for the Lipo......:-) Thanks for your help!

My wife Dolly's TT and saddlebag lipo with Dr. Kent took about 7 hours.  She looks fantastic, the man is an artist! 

Scott, I just can't wait.....I have so much skin that having it off will be so wonderful! WHooo hooooo!!!!

Hey there...I have an appt with Kent next week.....I'm going for a tummy tuck consult.  Gosh, 7 hours seems like a long time....sounds scary too but I'm sure he knows what he's doing.  Good luck and I'll find out myself how long I'll be under.

Gus, You look great! WOW! I called the office and they said the tummy tuck is about 4.5 hours......the lipo of the neck is going to take 1 more. The total is an estimated 5.5 hours. I was totally off and wrong! sorry!
