Forum : Tummy Tuck & Body Lifts : Tummy Tuck & Body Lifts http://www.surgeryforums.co.uk/forum/ I think 6 weeks is normal before you can stop wearing sports bra, unless you have had an uplift, in which case it's 8 weeks. http://www.surgeryforums.co.uk/forum/messages.cfm?messageid=A49320C4-3048-8D61-F87FBE131A33BFE7&r=1 2008-03-12T19:59:08--01:00 Abdomniplasty and BA Please keep conversations within the forum for the benefit of other users.

I wasnt told to wear any sort of support garments after. I was just told I could wear a sports bra for a few weeks and if I wanted to I could buy a support belt!! I ended up having a triple hernia repair at the same time which I didnt even know I had, but am healing well, and was up and about the next day after the op. I had the clips out on the 5th day but still have the drains in! How long before we can wear a normal bra? http://www.surgeryforums.co.uk/forum/messages.cfm?messageid=E44E2EDE-5070-B652-0441DA8A759997D7&r=4 2007-07-20T15:45:35--01:00 Abdomniplasty and BA I have been given antibiotics in case of infection. Not sure if I have one or not, the doctor took a swab but have to wait until Tuesday for results. Apparently it's commen and I have heard of people spitting stitches up to 4 months post op! http://www.surgeryforums.co.uk/forum/messages.cfm?messageid=D5BCD01B-5070-B652-044C571336D51054&r=5 2007-04-09T09:46:32--01:00 First thread! Have just found out, it looks as though you can only get the Next support underwear online but Marks and Spencer do something similar! Hope this helps! http://www.surgeryforums.co.uk/forum/messages.cfm?messageid=D5B189E0-5070-B652-04155BEEF78D0FA0&r=6 2007-04-09T09:34:14--01:00 Can't live without my binder! Also I saw some really good support underwear in Next which I think will do the trick when I have to stop wearing the binder. The underwear comes up quite high and looks supportive so will deffo give it a go. http://www.surgeryforums.co.uk/forum/messages.cfm?messageid=D5A97015-5070-B652-04148373BB250622&r=7 2007-04-09T09:25:23--01:00 Can't live without my binder! I'm also feeling like that! You must have had your op a couple of days before me! I'm gonna carry on with it for a couple more weeks and see how it goes! http://www.surgeryforums.co.uk/forum/messages.cfm?messageid=D5A8023D-5070-B652-0417C1EAC8378922&r=8 2007-04-09T09:23:49--01:00 Can't live without my binder! I had ftt with lipo to flanks about 6 weeks ago and I'm finding it hard to say goodbye to my binder! Does it matter if I keep it on for longer? http://www.surgeryforums.co.uk/forum/messages.cfm?messageid=D59F355F-5070-B652-04FDD60872C9813E&r=9 2007-04-09T09:14:12--01:00 Can't live without my binder!

Hi, I'm the first person to make a thread on this tummy tuck forum! It's kinda lonely here he he! I had my TT in February with M/R and lipo to flanks at Beaucare. Was healing really well until at 5 weeks a internal suture decided to work it's way out! :( http://www.surgeryforums.co.uk/forum/messages.cfm?messageid=D01B31E8-5070-B652-0423C68716F973C5&r=11 2007-04-08T07:31:55--01:00 First thread!
