This is a picture I took after I had my Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty)
Plastic Surgery with Lateral Thigh Lift to remove excess sagging skin
from my midsection (150 lb. weight loss).
The blood stains on the
compression garment
show the seepage from the
suture areas,
which stopped almost immediately. Note that the
surgical drains
are squeezed to make a suction for the drain fluid. Read My Story and

Background: I am a
54 year old man who is 5' - 7 1/2" tall and had attained a weight of
over 300 pounds. Over 2 years of dieting and daily exercise I reduced my
weight to 155lbs (lost
over 150 pound weight loss). This left me with a lot of excess skin
around my belly and midsection. Since I didn't want to live with this
for the rest of my life (See my
"Before" Pictures), I decided to look into a Tummy Tuck operation.
