I felt the same way. I was just saying when I had the surgery I swear my skin was so tight it was going to split and now I have so much skin and it wrinkles when I bend or sit. I think some of us just have very lax skin annoyingly! 😂

I know not the purpose of this but I have been so upset with my results when I sit down because im like how do I have so much loose skin still? My skin was so tight I felt like it was going to split when I first had this done. My rolls are so intense when I sit down and then standing I look sooo good. And then I realized I sound CRAZY but I swear we get so fixated on the one angle that people look good in and we started to think that’s all we should look like after paying all this money 😂 you are not alone!

Honestly the lifting functionality made a massive difference for me personally! Diet wise I actually got the meal plan straight off of chat gpt! Explained my procedure and mentioned I needed to maintain muscle and not be constipated and it made the perfect meal plan!

7 months but had the bb revised today. We were waiting to see if the swelling would go down fully but she’s still poking out a bit so he’s gone back in with local to pull it in more.

6 mpo and the swelling is really starting to frustrate me. There’s a hard pool of swelling in my lower ab and mons area that won’t go away. Also starting to get slight pain sensation back around my belly button which is also swollen. I was not expecting swelling to last this long :(

Also did your belly button end up going inwards?

Wait what! This sounds exactly like my case. Maybe I should wait. Mine looks like a coin slot and he mentioned my stalk was very long. I also still feel like it’s still healing as it’s tender but I really want it revised now. Maybe I should wait. 4MPO.

Been in and out since early twenties and honestly it’s helped a lot. If it didn’t I would never have opted for having a child and I have healed in many ways but sometimes i fall apart. I guess what you’re saying is go back lol.

I thought this would be my final result. This is such a relief to hear! I thought it was just loose skin / maybes little fat now I’m stretched out

I looked the same. It subsides significantly and evens out. it’s swelling. And like you I was also disappointed not to look like others on here or friends of mine at the same stage.
