Still loving my results and about to turn 64!
I had a touch up about a year ago, at no cost, to...
Had a touch up done around my "belly button" area,...
The actual suctioning lasted about 15-20 minutes and one small incision. I felt no pain during the procedure and was able to drive home. I was under general anesthetic the first time so this was a very strange experience for me.
I have only a little, very faint bruising which you can hardly see because of my tan. Recovery this time is quite easy and I was back to work on Monday and today (Wednesday) most of the soreness is already gone. I have my post-op check tomorrow.
My doctor does feel it is necessary to wear my abdominal binder for 6 weeks again. I don't mind it that much and I want to make sure I have the best possible result.
FYI, I was told I could go back to work the next day but the office was closed and I didn't have to work anyway. My personal opinion is take that next day off if you can. I felt a little worn out the day of and the next day and then bounced right back.
I will post pictures in a couple weeks, the swelling is not a lot but still comes and goes.
Provider Review
Dr.Gupta took all the time needed to answer all the questions I have had at each visit. Never at any time did anyone pressure me in any way to schedule. He is board certified in both surgery and plastic surgery. On an average he performs this particular procedure 25-30 times a month. Everyone was very kind, friendly and reassuring yet professional. I was hesitent to rate Dr. Gupta so early after my procedure but the excellent results were already so obvious at my post-op check day 3. See my pics. My recovery has gone excellent so far and can't wait to see my results continue to improve with time as the swelling and bruising subside. I was quite sore day 1 and 2 post op but not in pain. Day 3 was a remarkable improvement and day 4 even better. I took a week off to allow my body to heal, remember this is surgery. The man is a genius, an artist and did way above and beyond what I ever expected!! I can not even find the scars from the procedure, they were covered with steri-strips which he removed yesterday at my 2 week visit. Everything is healing so perfect! MAJOR BONUS, I had an vertical keloid scar from my belly button into my pubic mound from about 12 years ago. The lower it was on my tummy the wider and more knarly it got. He released all the scar tissue underneath when he did my lipo and didn't tell me!! It looks amazing now and when I asked him about it his comment was "oh, I guess I didn't tell you. I released the scar tissue underneath so your scar would lay flat." I think he didn't want me to get my hopes up about how much difference it would make. What a wonderful surprise!! My husband and I are so blown away by how fantastic everything Dr. Gupta did for me looks!! A great big THANK YOU Dr. Gupta!!! You get 10 stars and yes it was more than worth it!!
