The results were good for a while.. Don't gain any weight!!!! My waist is gone and now I have a very unsightly crease at my lower abs and my waist is nowhere in sight. All the fat that was removed traveled to my boobs. Some of you might think that is a good thing but at 36F, I was weighted down.. So I had a breast reduction and now all the fat is in my stomach. I am trying to reduce my weight and have lost a few pounds so far, so maybe this will help.. Bottom line .. If you are somewhat overweight, I would caution against this procedure.. You can't fool mother nature!

I had my surgery and it was fine. The healing process is something you really can't imagine! It's not bad but seeing your body all banged up and bruised is hard on the eyes. To add, nobody speaks about the blood coagulating and having to be smoothed out .. Another process you must endure ( for a while) ... But I am reaching out to you about this garment concern... My doctor actually gave me a comfortable garment! I have actually become one with this garment lol it's just that comfortable. I just looked on a website for you to see if they sell them and they do.. http://www.marenaeveryday.com/bodysuit.html ... The one I have I actually don't see but I have a triactive appt today and will ask which one exactly!!! I hope your doing fine. Some days I want to wake up and be back to normal but hopefully we will get there soon...

Hi Georgia P,
Yes, I did have some swelling down there, not inside but on the outside. It went down in a few days. Be paitient...everything improves with time. Dr. Boutte told me she gives 150% each & every time. You will be ok or she will make it right.

Swelling is natural "down there" as gravity pulls the fluid down to the lowest point. It will go away!

Day 22 My main challenge concerning this...

Day 22
My main challenge concerning this procedure is the compression garment in general and sleep issues in particular.
The Body Magic Garment that was highly recommended did not work for me so I am wearing a garment I purchased from a store in the Disover Mall thanks to a tip from a fellow realself blogger. This is my 2nd day in it. It's tight and immediately removes inches from my waist. I can wear it all day, but cannot sleep in it or at least I couln't last night. I also cannot sleep in the velcro wrap I was given after the procedure. I can sleep in a Spanx but it's not really tight enough even though I bought a small. I was given a medium Spanx after the procedure.
Issues with compression garments aside, I am VERY PLEASED with the results..no more belly hanging down, I have a waist now and the soreness is gradually diminishing. This was definitely worth it but still, I am really looking forward to feeling completely normal again and storing away these garments! LOL
