  • Posted to Any tips to speed up tummy tuck recovery? on 7 Feb 2012
    I had an easy recovery compared to my hysterectomy. I didn't need pain meds after about a week. I was walking the mall a week later and three weeks after that I was shopping for new clothes and undergarments..I spent over a thousand dollars at black white market buying smaller size clothes and the style of clothes I had always dreamed of wearing. I did not have lipo at the same time which I'm sure made it easier. I did have lipo a year later to tweak the areas around my waist and my upper back..you will get there and you will love it. The garment Dr. Nicole Patel in Tulsa did my sculpturing and she is awesome. Wouldn't have anyone else doing anything to my body and I'm getting addition facial improvements and would do all of this again keep positive which h

    My tummy tuck was easier than my hysterectomy. I was at the mall a week after surgery. Still had my drain tube but I didn't care. You are fine. Just be patient. The results will all be worth it. Just relax and enjoy your recovery time. Every day will be better than the day before. Keep me posted. I love looking in the mirror at my new body.

    Mine was out in nine days but I didn't have lipo at the time. I had the lipo in November. Almost one year later. I was walking at the mall a week after my tt. I was still a little bent over. Walk as much as possible. It will all be worth it. I look on the mirror now and I am always amazed how much better I look. U will love shopping for new clothes!

    I am going on 6 wks post op and don't have an appetite and feel nauseated. I thot it was the tight garment because I feel full just eating a small portion of my food. I had more energy the 3rd & 4th week than I do now. My dr. Is out of the office but I can email her but hate ro voter her on vacation. I even have more swelling on my right side than my left. Am I overreacting?

    U r in ur 17th week? Do u still have swelling from ur tt? It seems I have more swelling than I did last week..I wore a spanx for a couple of days but went back to my girdle garment because of the swelling..I still get tired in the evenings. I don't work but it seems I always have to go someplace and by evening, here comes the swelling. I am impatient with the healing process.

    Since I didn't have lipo I havent has pain since 2nd week so since I have no discomfort I forget to slow down.

    Did kimmer ever say how long we will have the swelling?I'm ready to get into my jeans! I thought after tt I would go down a size but I almost need to go up a size.
