I'm healing & feeling better

Yesterday I went to see Dr Salama for my post op check up at 6 days. My steri strips on my tummy tuck scar were coming off due to my showering so he removes those and put a solid piece of brown tape. They gave me a compression garnet with soft foam like pads to place inside 1 on each side and 1 on my stomach. Also Dr Stern checked up on me and gave me medication to help with possible start of a yeast infection. When you take antibiotics a common side effect is a yeast infection and I still have my drains in place so I've been taking antibiotics 3 x day for the past week. The garmet is extremely uncomfortable i had a difficult time sleeping at night. The doctor said I need to do messages in about a week and a half for deep tissue for my flanks - wondering if anybody can give me advice for messages and for for the foam inside my compression faja.

Honesty I was so pissed with Dr Salama. He or nobody from the office never called to check in on me the day after surgery. Appointments were brief and quick. When I was in the hospital on a Sunday I called the office there was no voicemail or answering service. I had no way to get in touch with him, no cell number nothing- so I had to text dr stern to ask him for dr Salama's info- the doctors at the hospital wanted to get in touch with my plastic surgeon. Even after I got discharged from the hospital I was disappointmented- it was a brief visit - I felt he didn't express concern. The doctors here in Fl were great, my health comes first - I was luckily enough to have symptoms which lead me to the hospital- I feel like the office just wants $$, and to get as many patients in and out- how does nobody call the next day to check up on you ?? And how does the doctor not even provide a cell number in case of an emergency - and how is there no voicemail or answering service after hours or on weekend ?? And he has no mal practice insurance - I'm hoping when I hea my results are good but honestly as an individual I don't feel like I was cared for at all-

I'm so sorry :( Your experience does not sound typical which makes me nervous that he's become too busy and forgotten about patient care! Most girls here carry on and on about his amazing attentiveness, along with his staff. Everyone had his cell number and said he responds immediately! I'd be lying if I said your situation didn't have me concerned about my own upcoming surgery. I hope you heal well and that your results are all you hoped for. Take good care of yourself! Xoxo

I'm glad to See you are doing fine. Your implants are sitting high which is to be expected and your swollen and bruised. At this point of healing things will look off because of the swelling, but in time that will go down and everything will look right. Camera angles have a lot to do with it too, if you could get someone to help take your progression photos so that you can have accurate pics for you to compare to.its hard to tell how your TT scar is based on the pic used and your breast cuz of the angle. Remember to eat lots of protein and drink and eat pineapple

I'm definitely swollen and bruised but I'm already off my pain meds. I feel the bruising is worse. Tomorrow I see him and hopefully the drains will come out. I have a stretch mark right on my scar line that I do not like - more pics to follow

Mommy makeover complete

TRANSF0RMATI0NNovember 6, 2016
So I had the surgery on Thursday and all went well- I am in a lot of pain and taking the medication every 4 hours on the dot. My boobs feel fine just tight and stretched - my lower back and scar line is where I'm having my discomfort. I'm upset because the day after surgery I went back just to have the bandages changed- dr stern was suppose to meet me there for my "consult" then surgery was going to be on Monday for my labiaplasty. Already there was issues because the mommy makeover and labiaplasty we're suppose to be done the same day- but anyway that was another disappointment. Nobody from the office or Dr Salama called to check in on me- I was shocked- how do u just perform surgery and don't even call to check in on ur patient - but I'm recovering and trying to stay positive - I'm hoping going forward I have such a great positive experience. So far I'm so swollen, my scar is very long which I knew it would be. My breast have been covered just applying neosporin on them. They say don't judge everything takes time to heal and for the swelling to go down. So I will just wait and see.
