Thank you so much for sharing.  I look at my body and am having a hard time wrapping my head around what I will look like once I have my plastics on Dec. 1.

Your pictures help me visualize how wonderful someone can look after surgery.  For 6 days out, you look pretty awesome, you'll have to keep us posted as the weeks go on to see the transformation.

Congratualtions!

Oh I was just curious, that's all.

I had the same swelling over my incision .. or I thought I did, ended up being fat that my surgeon left there and now I have a perm-muffin top :( I really hope yours doesn't end up like that.

Darn - it is on the sides that it bothers me and I may be stuck with it.  But I plan to have some work on my upper back later so maybe it can be addressed then. 

Was there any revision work that could be done to improve your results?

You look really great!!!!.  

It is so helpful that you posted these pictures.  It give those of us who are nervous about our upcoming sugery, something concrete to visualize.  I can only hope I look as good.

Thanks for posting.

Thanks Lin - that's why I posted them.  I looked and looked for someone pre PS that had as dense an area removed.  Seemed to me like I still had so much "fat" not just all skin.  The doc said though that even if I lost more pounds that area would be the hardest to lose it in.  I have always been large through my torso and just did not see a lot of other shapes to compare it to . . . . anyway - we always fell like we are worse than others, right? 

I'm glad it's helpful and thanks again.
