I researched it, had a Breast Reduction a while back and will be getting a Tummy tuck if I see the need for it when I reach my goal. As for having no feelings? That surgeon must have messed something up, because I have several friends that had the surgery and had never problems. There are also other options (Mini Tummy tuck or a Panni (panni they only remove the excess skin) or even Lipo) My bulge is just below the bellybutton and I am guessing I probably would be needing a Panni once I hit goal. DH is very supportive and with the Panni the scar would be a lot smaller, too. My BR scars have faded after 2 years so much that you can hardly see them anymore.
