Yes it is all very confusing..And I think all PS's operate differiently....My PS said this would be an easy case and the results would be astonishing, He was right...I know that a Full TT means above your BB ( I had extra skin above my BB)... I had my muscles stitched together, I did not need Lipo and had alot of skin removed...My Incision is from back hip to back hip (which surprised me) and I had 2 drains for 5 days...Oh I lost 105 lbs through Gastric Bypass in 2007 and carried my weight primarily in my stomach... I think everyone is also differient. I go to my PS on the 28th...Well find out more then.

Hi Pamela!
Congrats on your successful surgery! I'll be having an extended TT on March 5th and I'm curious about the Merena binder you are talking about... please tell me more.... like where I can get one and when will I need it.
Thanks so much! I'd love to hear any other good tips you picked up along the way... feel free to share!

I love my Marena compression garments. I got the one that cme almost to my knees & I wore it for my TT & then 6months later for my thigh surgery. and I just wore it again when I had some lipo done
I bought the sleeves for my arms and I wore them for 6 weeks. my PS even like them
I went to the PS surgeon today cause I am getting neck/face done and I wanted to show him the different chin straps for the face and he said he would order them for me.
the garments also kept my incisions flat
