Has anyone ever had the Combituck?  I'm scheduled for this on Feb 1st with Dr Schloemer in Troy AL.  For those of you who don't know what this is, it's a minimally invasive tummy tuck....He will lipo my stomach, back, flank areas and then remove all the extra skin and give me a flat stomach.  The healing time is FAST..I will only miss one week of work.  I'm just trying to find someone who has experienced this procedure.  I wanted to see how well it worked for them.

 

Thanks:)

Do you not have much extra skin? It sounds like a regular tummy tuck. I don't see the "minimally invasive" aspect.

From all I have seen lipo hurts and bruises badly.  I have personally never had it, I had an extended tt with muscle tightening with my belly button repositioned and I was off for less then two weeks of work.  Six years later I still have a perfect flat stomach that isrock hard.

 

Good Luck

I had Lipo and it did hurt, but very very very doable.  I am between week 3-4 and feel great .  No bruising at all.......
