Update one month post op

Day 36- I still get sore at times in the liposuction areas and my butt my left side seems to be more sore than the other that is also the side that I would get shooting pains right after surgery which is also the one that has a small dent and the bottom feels hard like a bump I try to massage up idk why I feel that by doing that I can get fat spreaded into the dent (idk probably won't work) but I do it. My butt still feels hard in some places. Some days I'm more swollen than others. My stomach still doesn't look even, I feel like I still have fluid build up in my lower abdomen. I massage myself and get professional lymphatic drainage massage once a week. I don't think it's fat on my mid stomach because I can't pull it, it's hard so I'm hoping it'll heal with time. I've never been a fast healer so I was kind of expecting a long recovery process. I have not gone back to Dr. Hazani since my last appt where he had to drain me but I do have a follow up appt scheduled next week so we'll see what he says. So far I love my results I do see minor things like the dent on my left buttcheek but overall the results are great I can finally wear summer dresses without worrying about covering my sides/flanks which is what I hated! Sometimes I feel like my butt is too big and i want it to go down then there's times it seems smaller and I would like it bigger. My lower back also seems to have a lil bit of fluid so I massage that too it feels squishy not like my lower and mid stomach that feels hard. I need to put something on my scars but idk what to use. Any recommendations? I can still see the bra rolls at times. I think it's just swollen my garment doesn't compress up there or maybe it was fat left over he did take the allowed amount out 5liters of fat so I wouldn't be mad or upset if it was fat he didn't get to take off. I'm thinking it's just swollen though because right after surgery I didn't have them. I still sit on my pillow he gave me while I'm at work and when I drive I just started sleeping on my back last week I change positions through the night so I'm not always laying on my back. Will update again after Dr visit :)

I had my first lymphatic massage I think it really worked wonders. I got up to pee every 2-3 hours that night so that's a good thing. I will be getting 2 professional ones a week. I also bought a shower brush with massage bristles and I use that when I shower or over my garment everyday. I am still using the garment and the binder Dr provided all day. I sleep with the ab foam and board. When can I change to a waist trainer? What other garment do you guys recommend? I still have some swelling and bruising. I don't get any more pain besides my neck and lower back due to sleeping on my stomach and the sitting. I came back to work yesterday and it was a pain! I hated it! My back hurts so much it still does. I sit all day so i am really scared that will affect my results. I have my bbl pillow that Dr. Hazani provided I use that to drive to and from work. I also use it at work but I feel like it doesn't help. I still feel like I'm killing the fat cells and putting pressure on my butt. I dont feel like the pressure is on my thighs. Should I just buy a bbl pillow or would it be the same as this? I had to take some Tylenol yesterday after work and today during work because I am so uncomfortable my lower back hurts a lot! I get up and wiggle around every 15 20 minutes sometimes I kneel or sit with my butt in the air. I just can find the perfect sitting down position that doesn't hurt my back or compromises my fat cells. I go back to Dr hazani next week on the 6th I believe. I think he'll probably have to drain some more fluid from my lower abdomen again, I can feel it building up again. I compress and massage bit I still get the extra build up. I stopped draining at day 3. A lot of girls drain up to day 5 so that's possibly why i keep getting fluid build up. And because of my excess skin like Dr hazani mentioned. So far I am loving my figure. He really is an artist. My husband loves it as well. I can't wait to be 100% again. The recovery is so slow unfortunately but definitely worth it.. now lol.

It really does get better everyday, thank god! I'm able to walk a lol more and faster I get shooting pains on my butt, Dr hazani said it was normal. Did anybody experience this too? I drove to ca yesterday to see him. He drained a whole bunch of fluid from my lower abdomen about 1.5 tubes from each side. My stomach looks somewhat back to normal now. He mentioned how important the massages were at least once for 10 15 minutes. He massages me to teach me how it should be done. Then I got pale and was near close to fainting they had to pay me down even gave me chocolates and water. I turned white as a ghost. My anxiety gets the best of me sometimes. I feel much better now after the draining I had my sister massage me today for a good 20 min and I've given myself massages here and there for 5 min or so. Tomorrow I will go get my first professional lymphatic massage. I only scheduled for 30 min I want to see how it'll be and to start it off for a short time then later we can do an hour. I'm hoping to be able to do 2 a week minimum. So we'll see how the massage goes. I will see hazani again at about 3 weeks if everything goes normal. I go back to work Monday. So they ended giving me the 2 weeks off afterall. I'm so blessed and thankful everything seems to be working out and I'm starting to feel like myself again. Slowly but surely.
