It's fine, but was definitely not there before. Has this happened to anyone else?

Do you love your results after a year?
July 17, 2017
Yes and no. I look fantastic in clothes, which is something I never had before even at my fittest. The hourglass is extremely flattering from all angles and I get compliments left and right.
But there is one tiny pocket of fat next to my belly button that was missed, so I look lopsided. And there are ripples on my belly that make it look like I had a child. Now if I stretch or have perfect posture, it isn't as noticeable, but I do miss how flat and taut my skin was before.

I just wanted to thank you for getting back to me and your honest reply. I've been debating back and forth on getting lipo and weighing the risk of having ripples. Unfortunately for me, if I was to get it done on my arms and I have rippling, it would be always wearing long sleeves. I hope with time, maybe your stomach will improve.

I'm sorry this is your case. I have similar rippling on my belly as well, but I've had four kids. Still, it wasn't like that before and I understand feeling disappointed over it.

Hi Kerij929. I looked at your review of lipo too. Do you regret the lipo even with the rippling? Your photos looked amazing.

One Week Post-Op
AlteredEgosMay 21, 2016
These pics were taken on May 5th, exactly one week post-op. The first week the bruising was terrible, but resolved almost immediately thanks to all the watered down pineapple juice I drank daily.
Now I'm 3 weeks in, and the swelling has gone down dramatically, to the point where everything I wear is very flattering. Unfortunately, I look pretty terrible naked at the moment, because I'm in the lumpy stage. AND my belly button is lopsided, which I really hope will fix itself with time. *fingers crossed*

Your results are comíng out great. I want to do the same to get rid of the fat on my upper And lower Abs. But does the pain go away in a week or so?

The pain goes away eventually . It takes time. Remember it is surgery ..... You will be so happy with the results. Its worth the discomfort. :)))

Yes, and no. Pain was very minimal but there is this awkwardness that remains. My whole torso had (and still has, a tiny bit) that feeling that you get when your foot falls asleep. So as long as my stomach or hips didn't bump into anything, I felt no pain. But suddenly being touched accidentally was very uncomfortable. Right now, I only feel a slight tingle when the skin is touched, but I still can't touch my belly button without feeling discomfort. Every day is better though, and absolutely worth it!
ENJOY
