5'1, 130lbs - Beverly Hills, CA

Okay here we go again. 4 weeks later and I'm somewhat back to normal. Still no sitting or laying on my back. I wear the Leonisa garment about 85% of the time. I wear a waist cincher about 20 hrs every day. I mentioned a dent on my tummy. It's still there unfortunately. I massage my whole abdomen about 2-3 times a day. It doesn't seem to help then at times it looks better. So all I can do is hope that time will help it even out. Three is also a little fat picket on my lower back. Idk if it's due to the binder not helping it drain or if it just wasn't lipoed. Anyway I don't notice anything wrong until I take pictures lol It's been a very hard recovery. There are somethings I'll always dislike still, but i wouldn't consider doing it again. My butt is getting softer and wear what means is it doesn't feel like a basketball anymore. Feels like I just finished squatting a plate lol. Well here you go ladies... Any questions ask away.

Here are my pre-op pictures.

5 days p.o still in some discomfort. Drainage has stopped day 3. I didn't use drains. Bruising is still fairly bad. I have swelling in my lower back because the binder doesn't cover that area. Overall today is a better day, first 3 were bad I'm not gonna lie. Body pillow has helped me a lot and although I'm a belly sleeper my neck and my already troublesome back are exhausted. I'm eating as many times a day to feed my new fat and I haven't sat down on my bottom. I'm wearing a size small garment from Leonisa and I'm also wearing the binder that I've been alternating with a waist cincher. I find it easier to sleep with the cincher than the binder. I will say compression is very important for the swelling. And although it's a very hard recovery I hope it'll get better day by day. Dr. Hazani is great I trusted him and I'm confident I'll have a great result.
