I am one week post op. Smart lipo on my abs and outer thighs. I have a desk job so it is a bit uncomfortable for me to sit. My abs did not bruise but my thighs did big time. I have been trying not to take pain medication and I have to wear this binder that goes from my shoulders to my ankles. I don't know if I am being paranoid or just a baby. It seems to have made a big difference thus far but I still feel a bit of pain and soreness. They took out 2100 cc total. 980 in the thighs and rest in the abs. I am just wondering how long does it take to start feeling a little better and does it feel better once the binder gets to be off. I did not hear anything yet from doctor about massaging but I go for follow up tomorrow. I would think that it would hurt too much to do this now. I think I am being impatient.
