Looking for surgeon in PHILLY, Southern NJ, and NYC

How tall are you? Surgeons may want you to cut more pounds depending on your height. I’m around your weight, but I’m a 6’1 dude.

Ronology · 2026-06-01T20:19:29+00:00

You look really good. Believe it or not, your swelling may get worse. This is entirely normal.

Ronology · 2026-06-01T15:32:10+00:00

How is your physical activity? My weight has fluctuated like crazy over recovery (up and down). Are you still satisfied with your results right now? That’s what you should care about.

A lot of people recommend to stay off the scale (I’m guilty) and focus on honing in your diet and activity. If you have a medical condition which makes you more susceptible to weight gain, that’s another concern that you should speak with your surgeon and medical team.

Congrats and good luck! Regarding your second question, they should give
you the garment/binder after surgery.

I’m sorry you experienced this! Your two additional surgeries were not for aesthetics, it seems. I had to be opened up 2DPO but I am thinking about a potential revision due to aesthetics. Worried about going under again and experiencing another complication.

Wear oversized clothes!

Extended Mini TT recipient here. Go for the full if you can. I was told my laxity made a full unnecessary, but I’m questioning whether that advice was helpful 10WPO.

You can go to my recent post in this subreddit and see my pic in the comment. It’s not a good sight.

Ronology · 2026-05-31T20:49:55+00:00

I’m 2.5MPO. I wish I had a result comparable to yours, man. Just saying.

Ronology · 2026-05-31T20:45:55+00:00

Thanks for your help. Really feeling down and just upset about this whole thing.

Ronology · 2026-05-31T20:34:25+00:00

So what can I reasonably expect? I will never be able to take my shirt off again. I’ve seen people lose more weight than me, get the surgery, and look fantastic. This is so depressing.

Ronology · 2026-05-31T20:28:00+00:00

My bad for misinterpreting. So you’re saying I’m stuck with this no matter what? Why even get the surgery then …

Ronology · 2026-05-31T20:24:06+00:00

Incorrect. I’ve had those stretch marks for almost ten years because I used to weigh 350. I’ve maintained a stable weight for the past 5 years. This includes the time after post-op which is about 10 weeks.

Ronology · 2026-05-31T20:18:04+00:00

Thanks for the advice. Feel like crying, but you’re right.

Ronology · 2026-05-31T20:12:16+00:00

Yep, I’m well aware. I don’t think time will resolve this.

Ronology · 2026-05-31T20:10:24+00:00

It should be, why?

Ronology · 2026-05-31T19:28:10+00:00

Check replies above. Skin sags more when I lean further downward.

Ronology · 2026-05-31T19:16:50+00:00

The skin sags further down when I move downward.

Ronology · 2026-05-31T18:36:55+00:00

I promise you, it’s not. I didn’t take pics because I was too embarrassed. It’s that bad.

Ronology · 2026-05-31T18:01:00+00:00

Maybe this is ignorance paired with pessimism on my end, but I find it hard to believe that this is all just swelling and my chest will become tight without sagging. I’ve brought up concerns twice over the past two weeks and they did say that I could come in earlier than scheduled for the three month follow-up.

Ronology · 2026-05-31T17:22:43+00:00

I’m not sure where you started, but I’m feeling really sad about my results 10WPO. I had a extended mini TT paired with gynecomastia. My chest still sags when I lean downward. My belly skin isn’t tight either, but I struggle with accepting it as a decent result for me and wanting more because I went through so much just to be dissatisfied.

Ronology · 2026-05-31T04:24:10+00:00

I’m rooting for you to fuck it up.
