Extended Tt, MR, and Lipo of Flanks - Salem, OR

sorry - lots of typos...*4 areas of lipo*

Give it some time!! I know its frustrating, but the swelling will go down....eventually. My lipo swelling took 4-5 weeks to go away, and I am still swollen from the tummy tuck at 7 weeks. My tummy is still numb, but no as numb as yours. After the first 2 or 3 weeks or so, things will start to change more rapidly for you - like using your muscles, etc. Just relax and rest. Before you know it you will start feeling more normal. You can try taking bromelain from GNC for swelling. otherwise you will have to wait it out. $ areas of lip and a butt lift plus tt is a lot for your body, hence all the swelling. I had a vrotchless garment too, but it didn't bother me too much. I just wore underwear over it - looked hilarious. Take it easy, get plenty of rest right now, and give yourself some time to heal! :)

Thanks!! :)

Hi ladies! I hope everyone is doing well - I haven't been on here much lately. Taking careof the kids is about all I have energy for! Overall things are going well for me, and I'm happy with the results...but I feel thick. From a side view I mean. I don't know if its swelling (6.5 weeks po),, if this is just how my body is naturally, if the muscles are not as tight as they could be, etc. I was quite large before surgery due to muscle laxity. Not overweight though. Anyone else feel flat yet thick?? If I suck in a little - thats what my ideal figure would look like. Any thoughts??

Great...how did yours go?? How are you feeling? Feel free to email me if you have any questions or need any support! natalochka@sbcglobal.net
