8 weeks post panni removal pics posted.......

I just posted my post panni pics I am 8 weeks out from my anchor cut panni. I honestly do not see a difference. thought I would be shaplier. maybe I am still swelling. I still fee like the panni is there. I still have a drain in, yuk! I need a shower, but sponge baths  it is until the last drain comes out!!! 

 

Let me know how I am doing and what you think.

Hi, I think you look great and are healing fine. Incision looks awesome! I never knew there was different kind of panni's? I just had the hip to hip one. I had mine done almost 5 weeks ago,but, developed an infection a couple of weeks ago. I had 2 drains in for a max of 24 HOURS. Yes I said HOURS. I believe this is why the infection happened because lots of stuff kept coming out where the drains use to be. All my best to you .

Dawn, I can definately see a change for the better!   Give yourself some more time, you probably are still swelled.  It takes a while before you see the final result.
  Hang in there and good luck!

I looked at your pics and can definitely see a difference. I think you look great and agree that you probably still have quite a bit of swelling.

There is definately a difference. You seem to still have a lot of swelling. I know it's hard to be patient to see the the end result but you really won't know how you are going to loo****il all of the swelling is resolved. Hang in there, it will all be worth it!

you are lookijng great, you are stillvery swollen but there is a definate difference

Hi Dawn,

I find it interesting that you do not see the difference because I can clearly see it in your pictures - LOL I hope the swelling goes away soon, maybe then you'll feel different about your results?

Have you found a difference in your clothes?

You look great, I can see a big difference. Thanks so much for your pics as I was struggling with just a panni removal since I don't have the funds at the moment to upgrade to a full tummy tuck.  My PS stated the same cut and sewing the muscles together in the upper area. Is this what your doc did? Because it sure looks like he pulled some stuff together.
