3 weeks post op still swollen
WORTH IT$4,000
So I am swollen again. One day I am flat the next day I am not. I am down 14 pounds from when I got the surgery. Just started the gym yesterday. I am in pain because of the gym maybe I went back too soon. With chlothes on I look 100 percent better than before. I am hoping to keep shrinking and I can't wait for the swelling to go away.

Day 8 post up in shock did not get laser lipo like I thought I did
So I went in for my post op. During my consultation I spoke to 2 other ladies not my actual surgeon. When I left I was under the impression I was getting laser lipo which is why I did not go all the way with a tuck in hopes that the laser will tighten my skin. As days went by I started thinking about not remembering the laser part so I asked my surgeon and he said I did not get laser. He said it was tuscement method and I should still see results. He said I have to be patient as the swelling will decrease month by month. And he was surprised that I thought it was laser lipo as advertised on the website. He works there part time. I would have been more angry but he is a great surgeon with great bedside manors and has done work all over the world even reconstructive surgery on poor children in other countries. Anyway he said I looked as I am suppose to look for 8 days post op. My insicions are so tiny you can't see them and I can't wait for time to go by so I can get back in the gym and I am praying for my skin to do what it's suppose to do. I am really swollen especially after 12 hours at work and it hurts only when I bend down or if I have my compression garment off and start moving around. Updated pictures below

What is the tucemont (spelling) method? I think I'd be pissed if that's not what I asked for. Good luck with your recovery

Did you find out the correct term for your procedure? I tried googling it how you spelled it and I could not find anything. Your results look good by the way!

Hi yes. It was actually in her original post. Tuscement . I googled it all these various surgery options are sooo confusing lol

He said that with tuscement there is little to no bruising or bleeding and less damage to nerves. I think it breaks down the fat differently. So he said he didn't melt the fat to suck it out. That's probably why I was laughing and talking through the procedure and I had no bruises afterwards. As far as a tummy tuck he said not to worry he thinks I will like the results and after 9 months he can do a revision if I want to look even flatter. I am trying diet and exercise first. And yes all these surgery options are confusing.

No i didnt post mine. Im still sore around the incision areas. Right now wearing compression garment 24/7 is the hardest part especially sleeping with it has been the hardest. Without it feels weird aswell. How long are you planning on wearing yours? Btw as far as results, i see its just like yours but i want it to go more flatter. I guess we will have to wait 3 months for the actual results.
