I had the back bra, waist and hips lipo done 2.5 months ago and my front feels ok now while my back feels weird...like my skin is on too tight. I'm not wearing my compression garment much anymore but do put it on occaaionally. I'm 44.
I was first told by my surgeon to wait two months to seat on my butt. The nurses at his practice said i can start at 4 weeks. after a few weeks, I emailed my nurse and asked her to ask the dr when it would be ok to seat and travel, and she assured me the dr was ok with me traveling, seating, and doing everything like normal at four weeks. Right now i am at 5 weeks and I want your opinion on what you think it is best to maximize my results.
I am on day 6 after my surgery and I have since never been able to sit down on a toilet seat or any chair. I had lipo on my inner thighs, butt, and abdomin. The abdomin I can deal with but not being able to sit down to go to the restroom is what is killing me. When I lay down I have my legs up above my chest to help reduce swelling. But even that only helps so much. I also massage the swelled areas but cant press too hard since it causes extreme pain. What can I do in my situation?
I had liposuction down about 4 days ago. I know it's way too soon to tell any results but I'm worried that the area looks even bigger and is swollen more on one side than the other. I don't know how much fat the Dr. took off but I saw some results in my abdomen right away but not in my pubic area. This was my main area of concern. Is there a certain way I'm supposed to sit or lay so this area gets flat and fast and swelling go down? Also by looking at the picture do you think it'll be completely flat?
I had abdominal liposuction a week ago and last night as I was laying down I felt a sharp pain on the right side of my abdomen. It's felt like I pulled a muscle or something and now I have to careful not to stretch the right side of my abdomen or I get that pain again. Is this normal? Did I hurt myself? Did my doctor hurt me during the procedure?
I have 16 different areas that were lipo and fat transferred to my buttocks. I've been sleeping on my stomach, however, my neck is hurting. Looking for advice on how to sleep, other than laying on my stomach. I'm on Day 6.
