Fantastic results! I go on the 24th for my brachioplasty. I know it won't be half as bad as my tt was, but again, allllll worth it!

Take care,

Annette

Looking real good!  Isn't it a total mind job (in a good way) looking down and not seeing the gut?

How long before your swelling went down all the way? I had an abdomnioplasty & breast lift/augmentation and i'm a copule weeks out. They removed 17 lbs of skin almost and I feel like I'm still stuck in the same size of clothes as before.

Completely - a year.  Mostly - 6 months.  Significantly - 2 months.  It takes a lot longer than you expect.

I didn't change clothes size.  It doesn't happen for everyone.  Kinda depends on how you carry your weight.

I still have swelling, especially later in the afternoon/evening or when I eat anything that's a little bit salty.  Big swelling!  Doctor says it'll be months before this goes away.  My swelling primarily occurs between my belly button and the top of my pubic area.

OMG you look incredible! So inspiring! Thanks for posting these.

I am hoping to go next summer for this procedure and your pics answered a lot of my questions.

YAY Tracy!  Look at your before vs. your after!  OMG what a difference!  Look at those abs!  You look amazing!!!  I am so impressed with the afters.  You had a great surgeon :)

I am almost 6 months post op from LBL and BL and it's such a distant memory.  So distant that I am having my arm lift in five weeks.  I can't wait!
