Hi,

Congratulations!

I saw Dr. Simon Talbot at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston.

I work in the recovery room at this hospital and I do have to say, his patients love him.

He will be doing my panniculectomy on July 15.

Contact the company and ask what they require to approve the surgery. Most of the time, though, you pay the surgeon the difference between the cost of the panni and the tummy tuck. Ask you surgeon's office for advice. Most surgeons have an insurance coordinator that can advise you.

I had swelling, but wore compression sleeves for quite a while after surgery, which helped. You'll want to keep your arms propped up on pillows to help with swelling also.

That is fantastic! Im so glad you are thrilled with your results. I had lower face neck lift and neck that bothered me the most, now Im thinking about and researching TT, BL, Arms. I have red pigment in my hair skin, I swell like a freak, I am concerned about the swelling of my arms if I were to carry on. Did you have any trouble with swelling? Were you able to keep arms down?

Hi Kelly,

Not only was I satisfied, I actually went back in November 2020 and had my thighs and back done, along with a torso-plasty! Now the only things still loose are my neck and my calfs. And honestly, I wasn't in much pain - even without narcotics! The worst of it (aside from the cost) was the tightness from the tummy tuck and being restricted to sleeping on my back after both surgeries, as I'ma side & stomach sleeper.
