I am scheduled for a total abdominal hysterectomy for 1/27, and I'm having and extended TT and BA with a mini lift around the areola.  I'm just concerned that my TT will not be to my satisfaction.  My stomach creases over vertically from just below my breasts to just below my bellybutton, and I'm afraid that this crease will still be there after the surgery.  Would I be better off with an anchor TT?  He doesn't think so, but maybe he doesn't see enough of us WLS patients?? I'm so confused!  Help!!  He IS highly qualified, highly recommended and respected, and even had a TV show, so that leads me to trust him... Any advise is greatly appreciated!!
Thanks!

Hi Adele,
I had the same "crease" that's why I decided to do the Anchor Cut.
Feel free to PM me and we can chat about it.....(I'll give you my phone number if you want to talk about it)...

I have the crease (aided by 3 verticle C-sections) and I will be having the anchor cut on 2/2.

I had that crease too and opted for the anchor TT. I'm 2 weeks out and am already thrilled with the "lack of crease".
