I had a tummy tuck five months ago. I am writing this blog to help people who are considering undergoing the procedure, as well as those who are post-op and looking for some perspective or reassurance.
I’ll be honest with you: it’s not an easy surgery. It took me several days just to get comfortable sitting up in bed. But once I was able to get up, it became easier. The first week was rough, but within two weeks I was driving myself around and doing my own laundry.
This timeline is not meant to be representative of everyone’s experience—it’s just what happened with my recovery. I will say that it was a much longer process than I imagined, so if you’re getting ready to do this, prepare to give yourself lots of time and space to heal.

5 months post op tummy tuck
TUMMY TUCK PATIENT 01
DESCRIPTION:
This is a woman in her mid 30’s after a ME makeover. This woman lost an extreme amount of weight and was left with excess skin on her abdomen as well as droopy “ptotic” breasts. I performed a Tummy Tuck (Standard Abdominoplasty) with a Breast Augmentation. Her tummy tuck included muscle tightening, and the incision is below the bikini line, with a hidden belly button scar. No drains were used. We decided on Sientra 355cc moderate profile implants. These photos are nearly 3 months post op. The implants are still settling. It takes 6-12 months for implants to settle. Tattoos were blurred. The patient is beyond happy with her results.
