| Who, Where, How Much?
Ok, I think I'm definitely going to need a TT when I am at my goal, I already have the hangy-loose skin, plus I had a c-section when I had my son 3 years ago. Anyway, I was just wondering who out there has gotten a TT, who (Dr.) performed the surgery, where did you get it done, and how much was it? I'm not concerned with cost as much as I am a good doctor who knows what he's doing so I won't die, be disfigured, etc, etc.! Let me know the 411!!  |

State: Maryland | I have my surgeon already, once I am at my goal weight..... (not banded yet).. in Torrance, California (I just moved to MD - but a good Dr. is worth the flight). Dr. Sherif Khattab. He removed cancer from my mothers face, and did her plastic surgery to cover the lost skin...that is how I discovered him. He is an awesome man!!! Free consultations too!!! | |

If you want a good PS start by going to a local support group and see who has had surgery and who they used, and if they were happy with the results :biggrin1: I'm 6 weeks post-op from abdominalplasty, liposuction to hips, knees, and thighs and port change and couldn't be more happier with my results!!! I also used the same PS that someone in my support group used 6 months prior to my surgery so I got to see her work 1st hand :clap2:

If a person looses lets say 100 lbs do u think its possible just to do a tummy tuck or does the doctor have to tuck other places too sice there is so much extra skin around the hips and all as well?
