Did your ps tighten the abs good enough I wonder? I feel like I have extra skin too!! smh, this procedure is painful and risky so no one wants to get cut again, but I want lipo on my abs too and no worries because a lot of ladies get their abs lipoed!! Im starting a light workout now because I want 15 pounds off, but I still want it lipoed!!! lol I want my tummy flat with zero fat!
he did..but I only felt really tight for the first week or so...I also what my tummy flat yo zero lol..n I also would like to lose an additional ,,10 pounds before my lipo
I am four weeks today and I am super swollen also!!! My doctor said it could take up to one year for the swelling to go down!!! I have also heard that after your scares fully heal try lymphatic massages! Also, eat pineapple and look up different things that decrease swelling! I am also cutting out processed food! I don't eat junk food or drink soda. I have tried to cut out all things that lead to belly fat!! Good luck!!
hello...im 5months post op my doc already told me I need some more lipo...I still have a lil swelling but by this far out what u c is your final result..so im thinking ima get my lipo done next month
I dont blame you because Im thinking of doing the samething! You are going to look great!
I know exactly what you are feeling. I am 5 months out and I'm not flat. some days I get discouraged others I try and think about where I started. I am seriously considering smart lipo. I have lost 6 more pounds since having my tummy tuck and still my upper belly is big. I am concerned if I get lipo will my skin sag? I feel my PS could have been more aggressive with my tummy tuck but he did warn me that I could have roundness in the upper portion of my belly. A revision is not an option for me. I pray all works out for you.
thanks
I also feel like my doctor wasn't aggressive enough...I feel like I recovered fast
I saw my ps yesterday and he said he would go back in and make corrections! I am not sure if I will be totally flat, but he also told me to give it time! ugh. still says it can take up to a year to see results

You look great! As my Dr says...lots of swelling.. I didn't wanna hear it either. At first my stomach was super hard and flat. Once it softened y up I began to look fat again. I went to a lady here in Philadelphia that does massages and she told me I was full of liquid. The massages and tighter garment is slowly working. I would ask if massages will be helpful! But you still look great!
what kind of massage???
