Horror Stories

In your search for tummy tuck stories, you are very likely to run into a few horror stories. Make sure you take these with a grain of salt. Find out why these tummy tuck stories turned out so badly. Were they truly the surgeon's fault, or were they the result of something the patient did? For example, if the surgeon told the person to remain bed ridden for at least three days and they went ahead and worked out or something, that could produce very bad results for the surgery and that could have resulted in a bad tummy tuck story. If you get a lot of bad stories regarding a particular surgeon, at least you'll know which cosmetic surgeon or surgeons to avoid.

Tummy tucks are performed all the time and many patients are more than satisfied with the results. Still, it may pay off to get some tummy tuck stories just so that you'll know what to expect before, during and after this life changing surgery.
