Mini and Vaser Done 2 Days Ago !! - Albany, NY

WORTH IT$10,000
I am at my 6 week mark, still can''t say I'm healed, as my stomach is still numb in most of the lower section, still hurts to touch me but not as bad, noticing some lumps here and there where the lipo was done and in the stomach, hoping they smooth out, when I look down on my stomach it's very uneven, and my back is either swollen or not enough was taken out. My back was really the worse part and my stomach, so being realistic, the job done is great, she took a lot off me, and I still have up to 6 months before final results, so all and all I am happy, but hoping at this point that when my 6 months are up I don't have to go back for a revise. Just want people to see the different fazes in different people, I think everyone heals different, every doctor does things different, at this point, I would still absolutely recommend Lucie Capek. If I need a revise I will go back to her. I figured out how to get my before pictures on, just waiting for a time that I am alone long enough to do it. As I said before, no one knows but my husband and mother. It seems as though my children have been home a lot lately to visit, or get their laundry done. LOL !! Either way glad they are here . Have a great night everyone !!!

The first time I called the receptionist was very friendly, then I go for my appointment and they all just make you feel welcome, I meant with my PS and I don't know what it was but I felt like I have known her a long time, just down to earth and explained many things and options to me, I felt so good about her I booked the surgery 1 1/2 weeks later, didn't go look for some one else, I had met a PS 5 years ago and felt like I was on an assembly line, but his repution was excellent, so I booked surgery, with him then I cancelled it as I just didn't feel right about him, so glad I did.Dr, Lucie Capek is fantastic. I highly recommend her.

I posted 3 days ago, and said I wasn't sore, I wasn't being honest as I don't know how to describe it, I am sore or burning or what I don't know. If your foot falls asleep and you go to stand on it, I guess it does hurt when it's waking up, I am a little frustrated and am trying real hard to be positive, my husband has to be real gentle when touching me, or I can't rub up against something, as it wakes the nerves and it hurts. If I cross my legs I have to be careful how long as it hurts to uncross them. Last night while sleeping everytime I rolled over it woke me up. I think my compression garment may not be small enough, I have a spanx that I tried on and that seems to be a lot tighter than the second stage one I bought ,made by marena. Could this be my problem, is the garment not tight enough, will that help, is this normal, Anybody tell me how long this last, it doesn't limit my daily activities but it is real annoying and at times painful. ???????? Am I not being patient enough ??? Need some advice. Still loving the way I look though !!!

It's been 1 month post op, i'm not really sore anymore ,I feel like everything is waking up from being asleep, like when your arm or foot falls asleep and it's just waking up. It doesn't really hurt just annoying. Been doing a few things I shouldn't be but all and all not to bad. My left side where it was more swollen is probably going to need a revise on the scar, but the rest is looking good, I'm using the silicone strips, not faithfully which I should as they do seem to work. I have been going places a lot lately and don't want to have it on. Things are slowing down , so I can get back to a routine. I'm back in my size 5's which is really great, there are a few pair that are still a little tight, but it won't be long. I will post pictures at my 6 week mark, and once I figure out how to scan and get my before pictures up, I will post them. Have a great day everyone.
