I had a Full TT last year. I'm still happy with the results of my tummy. I was left with a small fat pocket on my side. I decided if he was going to suck out the fat pocket. Then why not get my entire waistline done. So, I'm feeling very excited. I'm telling myself that this is my last time with PS but who knows what the future holds.

I'm now a little over a week past my lipo. I had my flanks, upper and lower abs, bra line and lower back done. I was very sore when I woke up and for about 3 days I was moving pretty slow. Man I thought I was bruised when I had my TT. The bruising this time looks scary..lol. I'm still pretty swollen but I can already see the difference. I found a cream called Traumeel on Amazon and it has made a world of difference in the soreness. It's supposed to work on bruising too but this only my second day so no results yet. I will keep you guys informed. Trust me get the cream !! Wish I known about it sooner. My PS thinks I'm doing great. I have seen him 2x since the surgery not going back until next year. Well happy healing everyone. Hope to post pics soon. Check out my other profile in TT to see the beginning of my journey.
Great review?

Hi Will you be posting before and after? I am scheduled in 1 week. A little nervous. I have used Arnica and Bromelain for swelling and they both work great. Excited to see your results. Happy healing and sore and bruising

I'm done had lipo on Dec 5th. I'm in the swollen bruised stage now.

Thanks for the updates! I'm glad everything went well for you and you've found something to help with the swelling. Have you tried Arnica for bruising? A lot of people seem to use it and have success with it. I haven't used it myself, but it seems to get good press around here.
