3wks post surgery. According to scale, gained several lbs. :(
Am unusually swollen.
Do you swell more after surgery? Or does salt affect you more after surgery? Or maybe this is PMS?

I can only hope that my mini tummytuck results end up as nice as yours once my swelling has gone down some but as it is I think my results are very poor with my tummy :( ill just have to wait and see

Hi Youngmummyof2! :) don't lose hope! :) My friend's TT took 4months to deflate. :)
I'm trying to wear the compression garment as much as possible as it's supposed to help with swelling.
Also, was told that lipo causes swelling and trauma to the tissues which takes awhile (3-6months) to soften and recover. Hope this is helpful! :)

What a Difference 2wks Make
MMakeoverOctober 18, 2013
It's been 2wks since my MM. PS removed some of the post-op tape, and now I can see my scars.
I am impressed!
My c-section scars were horrible. It was explained that the c-section's ugly, bulging, noticeably raised red scarring was due to my skin's tendency to keloid. I assumed that my MM would leave me looking like Frankenstein. Amazingly, after only 2 wks, my scars look the way my c-section scar looked after YEARS of healing! AND(!) bonus, my PS said the scars would likely fade to barely noticeable. I wanted to kiss him! Very surprised and thrilled!
