Congrats on such a healthy state of mind!!! That's awesome!! Don't forget arnica tablets. It'll help with bruising and swelling from inside your body. Start taking them 2 days before your surgery and for 5 days after. The arnica gel is good for the bruising/ swelling you see on your skin but be super careful not to rub it on/ into open skin. I can't wait to hear more about your journey!!!
Hi Perky! (I absolutely love your screen name! :-) I'm between 5'6" and 5'7". I don't own a scale but wore a size 4, on average, when I had my consult. I would say I probably gained close to 10 lbs by the surgery date. (Due in large part to Christmas cookies!) Even my PS was surprised at how much fat he got!
Thank you!!! I have lost volume- however- it was inflammation. I really don't feel like I lost much fat from my buttocks at all. I think the heated throw was really helpful. I made sure it covered my bottom while I slept. (That was using the theory that because heat dilates the blood vessels, my body would build up all the connections needed to maintain the new fat... This was completely my theory, not my doctors- but I should run it by him... :-)
