Met with my PS today. Incision is healing, so on to my scar therapy! No more super sticky tape....Thank god! Per my PS its just a normal swelling and NO seroma!!! I just want to add that for the many times I went to my appointment, my PS is always there for the follow up's and not just a nurse. I appreciate how hands on my PS is. Even though my drive time is longer than my consultation, you will never feel rushed and he takes time to answer all your questions.

I have the same swelling as you, and it bothers me. My swelling is also bad in my girl parts which is annoying. It really makes you understand how long the healing process takes. Sucks! :(

Hi goofyfoot I know.... I still have my good and bad days of swelling. But at least we see a glimpse of our final result when we are not swollen ;)

I pretty much always have swelling above my incision between my bb and incision line. And my pubic mound area stays swollen because of how tight my binder is. But I hear you. I will be happier when I actually have a moment where I see no swelling, even for a minute :)

How do you feel about your results now and how did your scar therapy go?

Any chance we could get an updated picture? My TT is scheduled for 2/13/18! My before pictures are similar to yours. Would love to see what you look like all healed with no swelling!

tired of swelling

It's been a while since I last updated my profile. Nothing significant has change except less bruising. I am still swollen which is really getting in to me now. I have been reading a lot of reviews and they say it's better in the morning and then gets worst at night. My swelling doesn't seem to be that way. I'm swollen all throughout the day :(
My swelling is mostly between my bb and incision. It's like a pooch sticking out. I have never really seen it flat. I was doing a seroma check but the swelling is not like a water bed when you touch it...so I guess there is no seroma. I am very careful with my body. I even walk still a little hunched and still taking arnica and turmeric. I am wearing my cg regularly with an 2 hrs break just in the morning. I'm doing everything I can think of that will help the swelling down. I also watch what I eat. I'm actually trying o get my appetite back. I'll have my 1 month post op next week, I'm hoping things will be ok.
Is there other ladies here like me? What did you do and how long did it stay like that? I'm just trying to be really positive as much as I could.
