Almost 8 weeks
So pretty much since my one month appt with my surgeon I have not worn much for compression. To make myself more secure with my decision I also posted a question asking what it her PS thought if I were to need continuing to wear it and if there was still risk for seroma. Thankfully I feel secure going without. This last few weeks have been almost as if nothing happened. I really haven't started exercising though, not bc I haven't wanted to, but with changing jobs and figuring out schedules I just haven't given the gym the time it deserves, lol. That being said, I gave not gained weight but I gave noticed a significant loss in muscle tone...so I will be "getting back in the swing of things" real soon. I have been using my silicone scar tx although not religiously as I am in a rush most mornings and forget...and in the evenings I end up falling asleep outing the kids to bed...plus it has rubbed off by noon most days. Hope everyone is doing well!
Around week 5

One month follow up
Saw Dr. Abdullah today. Everything looks good. I got the clearance to resume working out(easily), my lifting restriction was ended, and I was told that my compression garment was not tight enough. Well, about that, the clinic was unable to provide me with anything smaller and I had already went and spent close to $100 on two different shape wear garments. I got a Med, but anything smaller is going to cut me off and make me lumpy....soo considering I have been wearing these for 10+ days.....I'm just going to keep on. The PS did say I don't need to wear compression at night...we will see how I feel tonight and through until morning. I also was told to massage my scar and that I can start scar treatments if I wanted....starting tomorrow!
Provider Review
Dr. Abdullah
I have no complaints about Dr. Abdullah other than I wished he would have been willing to combine lipo with the TT. He's conservative and I think that's just fine. :). He is kind and willing to ask any questions that I may have. His nursing staff is so nice.... Marlyss is a patient queen, I just want yo go to the clinic for her bright smile and kind words! As a nurse myself shes an aspiration! Loved her!!
