TT revision

juliegeraci · 07-24-2008, 10:29 AM

Has anyone had a tummy tuck revision? My PS wants to do one in the Winter. He said he would lippo and remove more skin, moe the port, etc. I am not going to use him though since he did a poor job in April. Any advise? I am going to lose another 20 lbs before the procedure.

No advise to offer as I've not been through this but I agree completely.... it would be tough for me to go under the knife with someone who didn't do such a great job the first time around. I'd say look for other PS's in your area (didn't you go to Standford for the 1st procedure?) as you have a plethera in a driveable range.

I hope this one goes a whole lot better!!!

I had a revision, but it wasn't that extensive. She fixed a dog ear on one side and then cut about a 10 to 12 inch incision in the middle and removed about 4 to 5 inches of excess skin. It was done under local in her office and was able to drive from her office to work. It was relatively easy. The best part is that she didn't charge me a dime. Hope yours goes well. Keep us updated.
