I underwent lipo of upper and lower abs, plus flanks. I received IV sedation in a surgical center. I was awake and felt some burning at times, at which time I received more medication. Overall, it was tolerable. After the areas were treated, I received Morpheus which was uncomfortable and brought tears to my eyes. I did experience nausea and vomiting after the procedure after drinking a few sips of water. I also had the worst headache of my life. I experienced a great deal of swelling that started on day 3 and improved greatly by day 9. Also, had some bruising on my lower abdomen and labia. I’m now ten days out and feel back to normal with the exception of extreme tenderness in the treatment areas. In addition to the garment, I am wearing an ab aboard as recommended by the provider. My abdomen is definitely smaller with 1 liter of fat removed. There is still some swelling on the flanks and lower abdomen. My skin is rough and itchy, I think due to the Morpheus treatment. It’s also very wrinkly with a couple creases. I’ve had 3 lymphatic massages and am set to start my evolve tite treatments. Hopeful time and these treatments will improve the appearance. I would recommend taking off at least a week to recover. I went back to work in 4 days and work 12 hour shifts and had a hard time standing on my feet due to the due to swelling. If you sit or work shorter shifts, you may be ok going back sooner.
