i know how u feel...i am near 6 wks post and i had a period where my belly button was on the side, i still looked puffy and not a whole lot different (apart from the hangy apron) but over the weeks it has improved. One side i still feel is a little bigger and could have done with a little more lipo, but he said we can't judge til 6 wks so i will see him this week. U do deserve the job u paid for tho, hoping for you it settles and u love ur results, def agree on the fact that u may be holding more fluid without having drains, ask your doctor how much lipo he gave u, mine had exact weight written in my notes, that can indicate whether he did take much. Best of luck with the next few weeks. x
i know funny huh? everyone told me i should have got that removed but it is me and that is not why i wanted my tummy fixed so it stayed :-) at least u can see how much skin was pulled down :-) good luck with ur op, hope it goes as well as mine did x
my surgeon said the binder had to be worn for several months as it supplies the right compression, i tell u without it i would not be as comfy and mobile it is awesome...they said to not use the support style undies yet. Definately if the wound has not healed as it will make u sweat more than normal and can irritate ur wound plus the binder helps with the hourglass figure ;-) i am using the dale abdominal binder..not sure u have them there but google it and see what style it is u might have similar there, and the nurse and dr did it really tight i was not doing it near tight enough, is not that uncomfy..i am so much better wearing it.
he is pretty good...i am impressed! I had a few red areas yesterday that i thought i should get him to see so i went in and turns out my body was "spitting" out the internal dissolving stitches, so he cut them out and a piece of skin under local that was making my scar look untidy so hopefully it will be ok now. I still seem to be a little uneven but he said he would have to wait til 6wks and if i need more lipo to even it out i can arrange it...not that i am against more fat coming out of my boby but i would prefer it to just even itself out! hope u r loving ur belly, you look great xxx
