Thanks JSmom! I use Mederma and Pure Vitamin E twice aday, and my PS keep those brown tapes pn my scar for 3 months. I think they were silicon strips.

Thank You! WildOrchids
Wow! You look great. Glad things went so well for you. Your scar looks really, really good too!! I will have my TT/MR/lipo on Oct 19th. I'm a little worried about the swell hell that all the ladies talk about. How long did you have it before it resolved?? Now at 12 months PO, do you every get swelling anymore??? Thanks. All the best to you.
Thanks momcathy, The swell hell was the worse, but if you keep making sure your limiting your sodium intake it helps. The swelling last for me at least three -four months, and even after that you have little swelling here and there. But your will definitely see your results better every month. I will say total relieve of swelling for me was 6-7 months., but the numbness was here until I was about 8-9 months. At 12 months no swelling or numbness. Good luck on Oct 19th! You will do awesome!

Hey I was looking at your picture and reading what each one say. I want to know did the seroma hurts? and how long do it take to heal? I am having my surgery done tomorrow tummy tuck,arms and neck. Thanks
Hello Wanda47....The seroma didnt hurt at all. It was just more uncomfortable, because it was a bubble of fluid under your skin that made the skin tighter. So I was bent over a little longer because I couldnt stand striaigh until the fluids were removed. Once the fluids are removed it felt great..LOL. You will do great. Having a tummy tuck is a very emotion ride, but in the end you will look fabulous!!! Best Wishes for you tomorrow. I will be following your journey. I pray you have a speedy recovery.
You look fabulous yourself Brooksie! I can't wait until I am all healed!
Thank you!
Hey Brooksie, your results look GREAT !! Happy Healing !!!
Thank you!
