14 weeks Happy St.Pattys Day!!

It's now been 14 weeks. I'm still seeing the results come in I am getting more and more excited. I'm also very comfortable with my scar. With all the belly fat nearly gone it's a brand new me. I'm also using a waist cincher hoping it helps in giving me a little shape. I'm still continuing with the vitamin E oil and scar treatment oil rubbing it on my scar 3 to 4 times a day. Confidence has always been there but it's gone way up. My hubby really noticing the change. Only complaint is why did I wait so long for surgery :) Wish I would have done it sooner. All smiles tonight feeling happy it's really showing

Shelly Belly.... This review is for you. You've been so supportive. I appreciate it. Answers to a couple of your questions. Yes I love how thin my scar is. That's 1 thing I said was I was very surprised how thin the line could be. I will post a couple picks of my incision. And the scar oil I will post a pic of that too. It's kinda to early to say I barely started using it. It has the vitamin E in it also. I love how soft it makes your skin feel and it's not greasy I rub it all over my scar. I bought it at Walmart for like $ 12 not bad. I seen good reviews on line and I wanted to give it a try. The binder they gave us at surgery i also still wear that every day but I also have a couple other compression garments I use and rotate. They give a good fit on my tummy and holds everything in place. But only thing is it doesn't do anything for the bra rolls . That's why I want 1 like you have. Thanks again for sharing the type of garment you have. It helps reading and seeing what every one else is using and hearing about every ones experience. Thanks for keeping in touch , love reading your reviews they really help me :) I will post some pics for you :)

He has great knowledge, experience and great bedside manners.He is always open for questions and concerns and gives you his complete attention with any discussion. I would recommend anyone considering having any type of cosmetic procedures done to seek Dr Knoetgen they will not be disappointed.
