Did Your Lap-Band Tighten after PS?

I'm scheduled for panni removal and TT in about 5 weeks. I'm feeling like I need a tiny fill but am wondering if I need to wait until after surgery.

If you are banded and had PS, were you tighter after surgery?

How long after surgery was your belly healed enough for another fill?

Thanks!

I am banded and had an LBL and arm lift. I didn't have any noticeable band swelling or tightness after my procedures.

Good luck with your surgery!

Thanks Robin!
Thats good to hear! From reading everyone's posts it sounds like everyone is affected differently.  I shouldn't be surprised at that because the band has it's own mind...LOL

Hey Shirley!
I'm good, have not had plastics yet, I'm scheduled for June 10th. It's almost as exciting as when I was banded. I know it will be a totally different recovery though. The lap band surgery was a breeze! 
Hope you are doing well these days.

Bless your heart! I have decided to wait it out. I don't want to risk being too tight. My lap-band Dr is 2.5 hrs away and I can't imagine traveing that far for an unfil while I'm in the early stages of recovery. 
Good luck with your band!

My band did swell alittle after TT but it went away after a month or so and I did not have a fill tell 4  mos later.
I just had a breast Augmentation a week ago and I have no swelling of my band, In fact I can eat like a horse and now I am up 9 lbs after BA ugh I sure hope alot is swelling not just the weight of the implants, I really feel fat after the BA  HMMMMM wonder if the implants just make me look fat
