You are too funny.  I saw your before pics, and was impressed what a nice job capella did fixing up your ken doll poof.  I still have a little poofiness down there but nothing I would recut over.  It is only noticeable when I am bloated.

Good luck, I hope it turns out great.

He does do an amazing job. Since I will be Franken-Barbie when all of this is over, I may have him tattoo Capella on my right ass cheek just like Barbie has Mattel on hers! hahaha

Oh, too funny, when I was on the phone with Scott, he asked me if I meant my vagina. Thank goodness that I knew by then what my vagina is, and I said "NO! I had my daughter by c-section. I am not stretched out." Geez... I don't want people thinking that part was all disfigured, too.

I am looking forward to having a tight little pubic area.

VERY nice!   Your tummy looks wonderful - and natural.    I am twelve days post TT, and I am absolutely amazed at how my tummy looks.   I am seven years post-op, and never expected to have one.   I developed a ventral hernia, however, and my WL surgeon and I discussed the possibility that he could perform a TT along with it.  He did not feel that I had enough panni for insurance approval, but he submitted for a full TT anyway, and they approved.   I am 52, and stand and look in the mirror in awe. My stomach now looks like that of a 15-year-old.    The only problem that I have, is I now want the rest of my poor saggy body done, and I don't see that as a possibility, financially.   My poor surgeon has opened a Pandora's box!

Yes, they get us hooked on crack - LOL! But wow, you do not look 54! You are rocking it!

Thanks for your nice note! I bought a few great dresses size 10 today. I have not been this size since I was a teen. And my stomach hasn''t been this flat since I was 16 and wore a size 7. OMG!

52...not 54...I'm trying not to add any more years than I have to!   I am small...a size 4 or 2 pre-op....I'm not sure how I feel about having to go and buy new pants.  I have lost 8 lbs since my TT.

I plan to post my before & after photos at the 3 month mark. I'm 7 weeks post TT today. I've had very little swelling in the past week so I'm starting to feel real pleased with what I see in the mirror.
