7 weeks post TT and Breast Lift - Pics

Well, it's time for me to be brave and share a few pictures as part of my paying it forward.  Here are some progress pictures documenting my TT and Breast Lift 7 weeks ago.  I only had 2lbs of fat removed from the TT and minimal skin from the breast lift.

The shots taken today were taken just after I'd removed my silicon strips and compression garments so there are lots of lines which aren't normally there and of course I'm still swollen.  The scars are a little red, but I guess they are coming along as they should do at this stage of the process

I go in for an inner thigh lift and arm lift tomorrow so probably won't feel like standing up and having my progress pictures taken for a few weeks or so.

Thanks to everyone who has replied to my posts and/or shared their pictures - this site and you guys are amazing.

Wow congrats you look great. I'm getting mine on August 12. How are you 7 weeks out? Any problems, any pain? Thanks,

Paul

Hi Paul

7 weeks out and I'm fine - my tummy only hurts now where I have some of the muscle repair - in particular when I laugh (jus****ched a funny TV programme and am regretting it !), sneeze (you do that more than you are aware of) and occassionally if I try and lift something that's too heavy or if I twist too much.  I still have the odd day when I'm really tired, and of course am still swelling - but overall am great considering I had two major surgical procedures (I think sometimes we forget that this is major surgery - partly because it's aired so much on TV shows like Dr 90210 etc!).

I wrote about my plastics journey on my blog, so feel free to have a read and see how it went.  

The surgery and recovery have been better than I expected and as I live in Dubai where it's difficult to get strong meds prescribed, I managed on panadol tablets only once out of hospital without too much difficulty.

Good Luck with your surgery.
Regards
Debbie

Thanks for the reply. I hope to be back to work after 3 weeks, then back to full work after 5. So I thought maybe 5 weeks would be ok if I don't pu**** I remember after GB Surgery I went back after 7 or 8 weeks but could have gone back after 5-6. Ok I'll take a look at your blog and thanks for the feedback. Your surgeon did an awesome job.

Regards

Looks great and you definitely can see the definition in the last pic.  Looks like your scars are healing nicely. 

you look fantastic

Looking great.

Thank you so much for sharing!  I know it really helps people to be able to see what plastic surgery can do so that we have realistic expectations.  I had my own breast-lift yesterday, and couldn't be happier!  I will have to post some pictures sometime.  The change is pretty shocking!

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU FOR SHARING!!!  I'm four weeks out and even though I KNOW I have a long time to see the final results, seeing your difference from 4 to 7 weeks is COMPLETELY MOTIVATING TO ME!!!!

You've made me very happy tonight, lol!!!

PS - How did you create your side by side picture in the single frame?  I'd like to do something similar!!!
