Just had panni removal
...and I have a question. My surgery was Thursday morning... The pain is nowhere near as bad as it was with my original surgery..if it weren't for the staples and the drains. How long did you have these before they were removed. The binder really pulls on them and that's what causes the most amount of pain. Other than that, I think it's not too bad.
I have a follow up in the am with the plastic surgeon. Think I'll lose some of the staples tomorrow or will that be in a few weeks?

14 pounds lost before surgery. My first ticker is when I hit onderland: this was my goal when I started on this journey. I want to focus on that right now...once I get there I can reevaluate.
My second ticker is my dream goal. Even if I only visit there for a short time, it would be nice to see that number just once. I am pretty sure I'll need plastics to hit this goal.
I didn't have any staples with my Fleur De Leis Tummy Tuck. I had 2 JP drains and they stayed in 2 weeks. I will be 3 weeks post op this coming Tues and I'm still wearing abdominal binder.
I'm sure the panni vs tummy tuck makes a big difference because of the muscle work. My tummy is still very sore, hope to drive this next week.
Best wishes on your recovery.

I had 4 drains, removed on day 11 after surgery and no staples. I still wear my stomach binder some but can't stand anything on my legs.
