Your results look great!! Congratulations! It looks like you recovered quicker than a lot of people and had less initial swelling. I'm wondering if that's partly because you didn't have lipo? How long did you keep the drain in? I don't want lipo - it does look like your flanks got smaller - was that just a side effect of the surgery or maybe from losing weight during the recovery period? I wouldn't mind having my flanks get smaller but adding lipo to a big surgery and adding that swelling when you're trying to get a scar to lie flat seems like it wouldn't give the best result... Do you have any thoughts on doing it without lipo? Thanks so much for your advice!
Hi Tamara, Did the swelling finally go down? Are you still happy with your doctor and with your results? How long did you keep your drain in? Do you wish you had kept it in longer? Thanks so much for your advice!!
Congratulations!! I am visiting with your doctor this month to consult. Did you post pictures? I saw mention of it but I don't see any. Are you still happy with your doctor? Thanks!
How is your stomach now? Has the swelling subsided? Do you think the dr handled it okay? I am thinking about getting a tt with the same doctor so I'd love to know if your perspective on him has changed with the swelling issue. I really hope it is better for you now!
