Liposuction on abdomen, flanks and back

User Avatar

I got liposuction of my abdomen and flanks and my bra roll aka back handles. My surgeon advised me that this was the best option to improve the contour of my previous TT . I had some issues with the way insision healed I had some residual fat above my incision and it looked a little sunken in. My surgeon has been great and has shown he truly cares about my satisfaction. I guess I'm excited to see how it is going to turn out. It already looks so much better. I am 3 1/2 weeks post op. I have been massaging daily and taking arnica pellets and using compression. I will be posting my progress. However I have been feeling extremely anxious and terrified that I am going to gain weight. I'm so scared that I will gain weight in my upper body. I have a inverted triangle figure and this second procedure has really made me look more like an hourglass. I just hope I don't gain it all back from the inactive recovery period. I've read stories about women who's arms get really big and I already have big arms and that scares me. I need to focus on my diet for now until I can go back to the gym.

Extremely happy! It's so worth it , you just have to keep up with massage, so you don't get lumps.
