I had full tummy tuck. My cost was $5,000. That is because I am in NE Ohio. When the surgeon worked in Boston, the same procedure was $13,000.
The first week I was in a lot of pain and had to walk bent over. I had two drains and they were left in for three weeks. That is because I kept moving around. I was supposed to stay resting and only get up for the bathroom. I was able to work because it was computer work from home. I was pretty uncomfortable with pain for about six months. I wore a binder for three months.
There is a scar that a bikini covers. And I am now comfortable wearing a bikini. I love the tight feeling in my abs. I went from size 8 pants down to size 4. I would do it again in a minutre.

Thanks for the feedback. That is so awesome that you are able to wear a bikini and I am glad to hear that you would do it again if you had to. I don't consider myself a woos by any means, however, from the little I know about plastic surgery it seems like there is significant pain.
I will definitely check out the link that you had sent to me. I am in the northeast and surgery (of any kind) is so expensive. My sleeve was over 65K and I heard others pay only 15K or less in other parts of the country.

Congratulations! I had my panniculectomy done yesterday - and it's been an amazing change already. AND, I only had 4.5lbs of skin removed. They also did a hernia repair and I can't wait to see what my new navel looks like when it's all healed.
With 28lbs gone, you must feel so much better! Thanks for sharing your pictures.
