Tummy tuck was so worth it

[SophiaD]

I'm a 31 year old female in Miami. I had a mini tummy with muscle repair + body jet lipo with fat transfer to butt. I'm sooo excited and happy. I had the procere about 7 weeks ago and I feel great. My recovery was fast and painless. My surgery was so worth it.
Don't be afraid just look for the right doctor. I reffered my doctor to others because not only that he is a smart lipo national trainer but he is a board certified with a lot of experience.
Take the step!!

Sophia: Glad to hear of your good experience. A question for you: I had a mini-tuck without muscle work, with lipo in my midsection. How soon were you told you can excercise? Prior to my surgery, I had been on my eliptical every day for 45 minutes, for the past 2 years. I am at day 12, and am wanting to get back on. Different doctors have different instrucitons. Mine says give it 3 to 6 weeks for going back to excercise, but that is on the "general" instructions given to everyone. My question is do you know if excercise helps the forming of scar tissue or makes it worse? Ever been told? I am finding it difficult to find any information on this on the web.

Not at all. I paid $6000.00 and my doctor is Darryl Blinski. Great doctor.

Well, I have to tell you that my doctor said the same thing 3 to 6 weeks and them light exercise. Prior to my surgery I was doing the Firm and that requires weight, climbing and heavy dutty work out. My doctor said not yet. He is going to see me in a month and them he will tell me. My advise to you be carefulll in the sense that we are not doctors and sometimes we don't want to listen just because we are desperate and that can bring problems later on. Do what you can but don't overdue. Good luck.
