Round 2 With Dr. Salama

After surgery I suggest you have the person accompanying you check your body for any abnormal coloring on your skin. The coloring on my butt was definitely abnormal and I'm glad we caught it before it made even more damage to my skin. It ended up boiling up and leaving my skin raw and pink. Dr. Salama and Nomie were both on top of things from the very beginning and I am SO grateful for it. If any of you followed my first review you'd know that Vanity did little to nothing to help treat my 'faja burns' according to them. Dr. Salama said these were caused by my poor blood circulation and he was quick to put me on medication for it and we had my faja removed until things looked better. This is what they're looking like as of today, I've been prescribed scar cream as well as hyperpigmentation cream and I'll update you guys on how they heal up once I start using those things. I'm hoping they don't rise like the scars on my waist but honestly the Elite team has been doing such a wonderful job at treating them that they haven't risen at all. So we'll see.

I'm officially 4 weeks post op today, yay! I flew back home on the 14th of December, it was a dreadful 8 hour flight. I was so pissed at the flight attendant because there were TWO empty rows and she wouldn't let me go lay down in one even after offering to pay for the extra seats. Guys I was in so much pain, I kneed down on the floor for most of my flight and by the time I got back to my hometown I could barely even stand my knees were wrecked lol. Being home has definitely made me feel better, I'm not nauseous anymore and my weakness isn't as prominent. I took this picture at the airport after my first 8 hour flight because I was scared i had flatten it out from bending over lol.

I'm 12 days post op today, I am still very sick. This round two has been way harder than my first. Maybe it's because I had a lot more lipo done to my arms and chin? I don't know but I've been throwing up at least once a day and I have absolutely no appetite. I have to force myself to eat, SMH. Here are some pictures for you guys.

Also, I found out why I had those "burns" during my first round with Fisher, they were due to poor circulation. Dr. Salama said I have poor circulation problems and he prescribed me some medication for it because guess whaaat? I ended up getting poor circulation on my right butt cheek, the one that I really liked lol it was the left cheek that needed all the revision and now I've got the right cheek recovering poorly. BUT I'm staying optimistic and hopefully I don't scar up. I'm so over this surgery, I just want to feel better again.
