hysterectomy

Avatar f tn My OBGYN, who was insulted that I had the tummy tuck done at the same time as his hysterectomy, said it is not from the hysterectomy and that a Tummy Tuck can cause long term pain. Is this true, is there anything I can do?
Avatar f tn I have had CTScans and ultrasounds and nothing shows up.)I have lost 20 lbs since the tummy tuck and my waist is bigger than it was before the tummy tuck!

Avatar f tn I had a full tummy tuck in August of 2008....some complications followed with drainage, and I had to be aspirated about 7 times with a needle. It has now been a year and I am left with a huge bulge just above the belly button. It is hideous, and my doctor says he does not know what it is and he has never run across this type of probelm. He says he needs to consult some colleagues about this. What could it be, and what should I do??
Avatar n tn unfourtunalty it seems to come with the surgery,,most gain an adverage of 20 lbs in a years time and seem to maintain that, all I can suggest is speak with your Dr about a exercise routine, what diet may work best for your metabolism ( a endocrinologist may be best for this as they can measure all hormones) last resort if you have the money and it really bothers you would be cosmetic surgery such as lipo or a tummy tuck do NOT do this with out several consults and certanity nothing else will

1311499 tn?1273675955 how much does a tummy tuck cost? can you have one after having 3 c-sections and cut vertical with all 3 of them? I have also had gull blatter surgery and my tubes tied. My last procedure was about 2 years ago. I have bad belly flab from my babies. I have had 4 babies. I have really bad stretch marks too. Is there anything I can do that is not surgery that will help with any of this too? I hate my body!! I just want to look good again. Any answer? Thank you for your time.
Avatar m tn My best friend had a tummy tuck by a doctor who was horrible a year ago. She has since had repeated issues with her belly button. He left stitches in there and they are slowly but surely trying to make there way out. Her belly button is not very irritated & infected not to mention she is now getting blisters all around her belly button due to all the liquid. She went to the ER because of the pain this is causing her but no doctor will perform surgery on her due to the liability.

477608 tn?1238527958 1) Would a tummy tuck be able to get rid of my stretch marks entirely? Or at least get them below bikini level? 2) Given the anchor scar from breast lift/reconstrucion, would an augmentation be better as far as scarring? I tend to think I am too large for aug. 3) Is there anything that can be done for my leg dent? What would that have been caused by? 4) Anything for the stretch marks on my hips? 5) Since I also have cellulite on my hips/buttocks/thighs...would a lower body contour be the key?
Avatar n tn I had a tummy tuck with liposuction 12 months ago. I am still swollen and sometimes my stomach looks distorted. I have not put on any extra weight since surgery.I am so frustrated because at times it hurts like a pulling feeling. I went back to the doctor a couple of times and he tells me to wear a ace band around me tight and i do but it does't help. Is this normal and if so how much longer does it take. i cannot exercise at all or lift anything heavy because it will swell even more.
Avatar n tn It was not planned. I am scared bc I had a tummy tuck April 2011. I have a 9 and 7 year old. It took me a year to stand up straight. Can I really stretch that far?
Avatar f tn However, someone with poor health cannot be a good candidate for tummy tuck surgery. Good health is mandatory for a tummy tuck procedure. And for what you asked, tummy tuck surgery can be a great solution for your problem. It tightens the abdominal muscles and removes the excess fat and skin. It will definitely give you a better result. Because I know many people who are satisfied with the tummy tuck surgery they underwent.
Avatar f tn This is absolutely not normal. One of the complications of a tummy tuck is venous thrombophlebitis. You need to contact your surgeon and have this problem evaluated.
Avatar n tn But I really just want to lose the flab in my upper arms and stomach without losing my *** or breast. I know that liposuction and tummy tuck is an option for me but I cannot afford the cost and all the complications that come with it. My friend pointed me to this advertisement she saw on facebook for a home lipo laser machine called slimray because she found it funny and ridiculous but i am really curious about it cos i am quite desperate to get rid of the fatty tummy.
Avatar n tn If I do get a second tummy tuck later, how would it look? Would the second tummy tuck lock completely flat?
Avatar f tn t have insurance. Although from my understanding, the insurance cos. consider it to be cosmetic surgery (tummy tuck) so i hear they don't cover it most of the time anyway. And that doesn't make a bit of sense to me. I may end up with a flatter stomach because my muscles are sewn back together but who cares how flat your stomach is if you have a scar from stem to stern?!
Avatar f tn I went to my plastic surgeon in regards to a tummy tuck. He said I could do either a full tummy tuck with Lipo or an extended tummy tuck with Lipo. I'm not sure if I need the extended tummy tuck. Pictures for reference. https://imgur.com/a/haCtIK0?
Avatar f tn I had 2 csections. ..a tummy tuck 5yrs ago. ..and now expecting. Concerned about my future tummy tuck and my baby having room to develop. Not the tummy tuck. ..just my babie's health.
1503139 tn?1289436086 Hi, I have a horizontal scar under my bellybutton that bothers me. It's not the scar thats the problem so much as the fat that sticks out above it, between the scar and the belly button. I'm otherwise lean and not fat at all. A few doctors have told me a mini tummy tuck would be able to move the scar lower, so it could hide under a bikini, and others have told me a simple scar revision would work and that I don't have enough excess skin for a mini tummy tuck.
