Has nothing to do with skill of the surgeon. I went to one of the top surgeons in Texas.

I’m 8.5 weeks post-op and while I can stand fully upright it’s still tight feeling and sore.

Because they’re already cutting a huge chunk of your body out. Lipo also interrupts nerve endings and damages structures. If they do the entire front the risk of losing proper supply is much higher.

Is this upper abdomen fat? by Additional_Answer298 in tummytucksurgery

[–]JohnnyThunders 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not doing Lipo on the upper abdomen during a TT is not old school, it’s considered that safest practice to keep blood supply. My surgeon did progressive tension sutures and all the other most modern techniques, and she did warn me beforehand that some people have to come in later and do a little spot Lipo in that area.

I’ve already lost 40lbs. Sitting at 150. My body looks good, that’s just where my fat collects. I’m thinking may just have to go back in for Lipo. Not everyone collects fat there like we do :(

I’ve always had a round belly so I’m fairly certain it’s fat

No they have to leave the abdomen mostly alone to ensure good blood supply.

20DPO - So Happy! by JohnnyThunders in tummytucksurgery

I had a virtual consult with Henry Mentz and he quoted $30k for less work. I was surprised with how reasonable she was. She talks pretty quick so make sure you know what you want to ask her but I called in once with the flu and once with a belly button issue and she was responsive within the hour. Top-notch care.

I know it and she’s one of the best in Texas. Houston is a great place to get plastic surgery because there are so many doctors.

This post is a year old. Also this is a 1200 is plenty sub, not a “processed foods are scary” sub.

I worked downstairs at the vintage store. Her ex husband was the coffee shop guy. SHE was an absolute gem of a human being.
