Worth It
Spent: $5,900 in Walham, MA

I had my lower and upper abdomen and flanks done because I couldn't shed the baggage through exercise.
I love my results. I had little pain. The pain was comparable to the soreness after an intense workout. The bruises hurt the most but only lasted a couple of days. I didn't need to take any pain medication.
Updated on 27 Apr 2011:
The most discomfort was experienced on days four and five which was a result of the garment pressing against the bruises.
At day six, my bruises have faded slightly and are less painful. I have a little swelling but my cloths fit loose over my garments. I've been eating fresh pineapple everyday since two weeks pre-op and taking arnica montana since two days pre-op.

At Day 15 I'm out of my garments and my stomach is tight with a bit of pulling/ripping feeling. I'm focusing on stretching and getting back in the gym.

I was very nervous going into the operation and they answered all of my questions and were very patient with me. The staff explained everything very well and I knew exactly what to expect. Everything they told me was right on and there hasn't been any surprises.

Tomorrow will be two weeks post operation for me and I am very pleased with my results. I'm not sore, instead, my stomach is just tender when something presses against it. In my opinion, dealing with the drainage and garments were the worst part. After day five, everything seemed better for me.

Did the muffin top come back? I noticed it's gone in day 15 (compared to the night before) and it looks really nice. Does it look like it's now the same as before??
It's been 3 weeks 3 days post op for me. The compression garment came off at 3 weeks, and I have very, very little swelling left (if any). There is a very noticeable difference - my muffin top is completely gone, as is my belly. I'm also sore and numb in random places like you. I have an uneven lump on my right hip (2in x 2in) which doc said was a seroma which should resolve soon. It hasn't yet! I'm constantly looking at it, not too happy with it. Hopefully it will be gone soon as it's on my hip so I can't wear anything low cut.
No it didn't come back and I am very happy!! I can finally feel comfortable in form fitting shirts. My results are comparable to the last photos I posted, maybe a little less swelling. I will try to post updated photos sometime this week.
The area above my belly button stuck out a little, you can see it in my photos. The doctor noticed it during my post-op and said it was fluid. It seems to have gone down quite a bit.
