Tammy Slaton opens up about her skin removal surgery
This came just a month after Tammy Slaton told People about finally receiving the green light for the long-awaited skin removal surgery — a milestone she’d envisioned since the very beginning of her journey to take back control of her health.
"After six years and losing over 500 pounds, I was finally approved for surgery," the 38-year-old shared.
"I was just overwhelmed with excitement. I worked really hard for this, and now it's here. I'm pretty sure it was noticeable on my face how immediately shocked and then overwhelmed with joy I was,” the reality TV personality added.
Slaton underwent bariatric surgery in July 2022, marking a dramatic turning point in her transformation. Earlier this year, she took another major step in her transformation when she travelled to Pittsburgh to consult with renowned plastic surgeon Dr J Peter Rubin at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center.
She confessed that the idea of getting her skin removed felt even more intimidating than the gastric surgery that had first set her transformation into motion.
"I was really nervous for the skin removal surgery because I was really just kind of afraid of how I'm gonna feel looking at myself without the belly there," Slaton said.
"The night before my surgery, I was, like, seriously freaking terrified. I was even more nervous about having skin removal surgery than I was for the [sleeve gastrectomy] surgery because they’re actually cutting the whole belly!" she recalled.
