WORTH IT$5,500
3 months since my survey I've came a long way. Working out 2-3 times a week and eating healthier has help a lot! My Dr. Still says I have swelling and some loose skin he hopes that the skin will continue to tighten and I don't have to have another surgery to get it removed ????

I will be 2 months post op on the 24 of May m! Still healing but man! I feel so good. This surgery was one of the best decisions I ever made. I've mostly always been confident except I struggled with some issues when it came to my stomach but now I'm in LOVE with my body

You look good girl for being 2 months post op!!! Thanks for all the advice and tips. I've bought quite a few items on Amazon to prepare for my surgery. I'm currently deployed so my husband and kids back home are like what in the world is all this stuff lol. I will check out the site Leonisa, I've been on the site but wasn't sure what to buy. Do you recommend buying one now or waiting til the dr. tells me what size is best? I wear a large is stretchy pants or leggings or a size 13 in jeans. Do you have any numbness in areas? And again girl you look awesome!

Thank you so much!! We wear about the same size so I think you will be ok with purchasing now plus if it doesn't work they do fast returns. Buy a large because I also wear a size 13 in jeans as well. I had numbness for the first few days that was it. And thanks again love! I hope you document your story I wish you a fast and healthy recovery!!

Ok. I'll try and see if I can purchase one now from the Leonisa website. I've done one review about what surgery I'm getting done and the dr. I'm going to. A few pics of myself with clothes and some before pics. They aren't great because there are no mirrors in the room I live in at the moment. I'm trying to workout as much as I can before I get home. Because I've got two weeks after I get back before my surgery. I'm super nervous. Please more post op pics as you continue to heal.

Will do! And it's OK to be nervous I was a wreck waiting to go into the operating room but all I remember the Anesthesiologist saying is think of a beach within one minute I was knocked out and the next thing I knew I was in the recovery room hungry!! Lol they didn't allow me to eat anything 12 before my surgery those were some of the best saltines and ginger ale I ever tasted. Lol

How has the recovery been to this point? Do you still have pain or was that pretty much done the first week? How are the visible results since your last post?

Pain is mostly gone only time I feel it is when I don't have my compression garment on I am exercising then it kinda of hurts cause I am still healing I can exercise perfectly with it on. My results are definitely day and not noticeably difference since my first week

Hi there Mayalou, I love your story and your results are coming along well. You look good girl. I've been strolling this site for months on end. I'm getting my boobs done and lipo of the abdomen and flanks next month. What I'm scared of is the lipo, the stories have me super nervous. I'm a petite girl 5'2 and thick, but after 4 kids my mid section isn't where I want to be. Exercise and diet hasn't been able to improve it like I want. I wanted to know did you do any professional lymphatic massages, or any on yourself? I've read those really help with swelling and drainage. What do you recommend for the best compression garment? I'm in the Air Force and I'm taking about 2 weeks off after my surgery, I'm trying to get the best garments that will fit under my uniform. Sorry for all the questions.

Hey Girl! I problem ask all the questions you want this is surgery we are talking about. This was the first survey I ever had and I was super nervous but it was one of the best decisions I ever made! I did not get any massages and my doctor even said it would be no point in getting them unless they were for comfort but I will be 2 months post op on the 24 and I am still healing so I honestly don't see the point in the massages plus that is extra money and I spent enough on the surgery however everyone heals differently I say wait until after the surgery and see how you feel. I feel now I am a pro at compression garments! Lol I went through 7! Before I found the perfect one and the best hands down for me was the Slimming Braless Body Shaper in Boyshort Slimming Braless Body Shaper with Thighs Slimmer on Leonisa.com I say that because after surgery for me I did not want ANYTHING though my stomach because it hurt like hell and when it was compressed it hurt like hell. With these it compression it very very well and they also have a open in the vaginal and butt area so if you have to use the restroom you don't have to take it off. I brought two so that when I needed to wash one I would have another one it made a huge difference in my healing because of the great compression. I think two weeks is good depending on how you heal I was good to go back to work in a week.
