How did you're surgery go ?? :)
May 10, 2013
I couldn't even stand my first day, I was in excruciating pain. So I understand, hope you start feeling better soon!

Thank you, you too ! I hope my belly gets flatter with time also :/. Let me know if your experiencing the same thing

My stomach got alot smaller, like he shaped my waist very well it just doesn't look flat but I think that's what the garment is for. and then after my bruising goes away probably in a couple weeks I'm gonna get a waist cincher which I heard is helpful!
May 10, 2013
Hmm that sounds like a good idea the waist cincher. I hope my belly gets flatter tho it just looks the same to me :/

Dr castor! lol and I had love handles :( which he got rid of which made a huge difference
May 10, 2013
Same Dr too lol he gave me an ok butt, I wanted bigger :( & my belly looks gross not flat at all on top of my vag looks purple & blue :(. I hope he gave you better results ! My post op appt is Monday coming up so ill address my concerns then
May 10, 2013
Oh wow I'm sorry :( I love my butt right now I just hope it doesn't go down too much. And I had a dark purple spot above my vag too from where they took out fat in my stomach I think but it's already fading away. Try and post some pictures when you're feeling better! :) also I heard it will be much different now then your final results which you won't see for maybe 2-3 months. But yea hopefully he can give you some good news on Monday

I think it's totally normal to feel like your belly isn't flat. Does your doctor use stitches or drains? If your doc uses stitches like mine does, you won't have any leaking, but it means you'll be swollen a little longer than others. Also when you lay down, try to stack some pillows. I put one flatter pillow under my belly area, and two of the same pillow near my head so that I'm elevated a bit at an angle. It's not nice to be sooo flat to the bed all the time I think.
Also, if you think you want to see faster results, ask your doctor about getting massages for your own comfort. People who get massages pretty early tend to see some really good results a little faster.
I had a ton of ab lipo done and my tummy is rawwwwwwwwwwwww and was extremely painful until today. I still feel a lot of pain when I'm getting off the bed and such, but it has gotten a bit better. Hang in there. Wear your compression garment all the time, and I'm sure you'll see better results as time passes.

Thnx bbldollie, I was wondering about the drains. My dr used stitches so I guess I have to wait a but longer. I keep my garment on 24/7 it's just a pain tho. I also feel my butt getting smaller :( hopefully it won't shrink anymore
May 11, 2013
Apparently the stitches are easier to keep clean than the drains, so it does a bit better to protect us from infection. I'd rather be swollen for a week longer than risk infection :) You can always cut holes in your garment to give your butt room to breathe!
