I have had a very similar experience. 4 kids, 44 had procedure 1 mo. ago today. I also had significant swelling and bruising. It is all gone now. I had 19 places where he made holes, ugh. Originally, he said around 8 would be needed. This going back to work the next day is baloney. I still have more crepiness of the skin than I had hoped. My upper abs have wrinkes now. He is supposed to do refractionated laser resurfacing as part of the price we agreed on. I am going on a cruise next month, and hope to see more improvement by then. Overall, I am happy, but it is not quite as good as I had hoped:(. You will see more improvement. Try drinking Trader Joe's 100% cranberry not from concentrate. Water in down in a 2 quart container 1/2 juice, the rest water. Add stevia(a plant based sweetener). Drink a container(32 oz) a day. it will help flush the toxins out of your body as well as improve your kidney function. I started on one of the well known diet plans the same week I had the procedure. I am down from 128 to 121 in 4 weeks. i am 5 ft. 7 1/2. The Doc said he took about 2 lbs of fat out. EEEW. My lumpiness has improved SIGNIFICANTLY in the lastr week. My biggest complaint is one area to the side of my belly button where it is a little poochy. i am going to ask him again about it next week. Keep the faith! It will look better.
