Pics posted

If you are brave---I just posted some before and after pics of my Extended TT and bleph of 4 eye lids with canthopexy.  Julia

Thanks for sharing pics Julia. Glad you are doing well and recovering! Brenda

Brenda,  I did hesitate to post the pics but then I know I have looked at a lot of before and afters with WLS and with PS and hoped my pics would be helpful to someone else.  Julia

Wow, Julia!  You look great.  You look sore too though.  Do you tend to bruise a lot or is that a normal amount of bruising?

Kim,  I do bruise easily but the lipo on the tummy and a little on the hips caused a lot of the bruising there.  He did a lot of work on my eyes but I think bruising is normal there too.  It has been sore but not really extremely painful except for the first two days.  I stopped taking Percocet 5 days out and just take tylenol 2 to 3 times a day.   Got the drains out today, so feel more normal.  I tire easily but that is improving some too.   Julia

wow Julia! it looks like you were in a big fight-I would tell everyone that you won! Seriously I can see the potential already. I see a tummy tuck and lipo in my future as well so thanks for posting the pics. It will help me prepare! I cant wait to see how it looks in six weeks! Tina

Tina, yes it does look that way doesn't it!  My eyes look a lot better now and I can wear some makeup and try to cover some of the bruising.  I will post more pics at about 4 weeks.  Julia

Thanks for posting the pictures.  I think its great to see what is possible after weight loss surgery. I too had bypass surgery 9 years ago and needed some lifts and tucks. You go girl! Thanks again for sharing. Robin

Robin,  Better get going on your Plastics.  Julia

Julia, thank you so much for posting those pics! It helps me see what I may look like after my eventual TT. Your eyes look fantastic already-wow! I can't wait to see how everything looks once you are healed. Is it weird to suddenly not have your panni in the way? How exciting!
