9th week update

I am currently 9 weeks and 1 day post-op. Since sitting on my butt I've experienced my butt soften-it's jiggly now. So my butt now feels like it's a part of me and not foreign. My lipo'd areas are still somewhat sensitive and when I scratch I could still feel the numbness. I have also been feeling itchy more often than not which is pretty annoying. When the itchiness feels unbearable I put on an anti-itch cream I bought at Target. I think it has helped reduce the itchiness.
Another thing I've noticed after sitting and sleeping on my back is that my butt settled or drop. I started noticing that it looked smaller even though I was still measuring between 44 inches and 45 inches. However, as of today I'm 44.5 inches in the butt/hip and 30.5 inches on my stomach. It still fluctuates a bit and it hasn't significantly decrease.
The recent changes that I've noticed are subtle but noticeable to me. I'm posting pictures to show how my butt and overall body's inflammation has subsided since my 5th post-op pic and even the 6th week ones.
The latest pic is a 2 month post-op pic which I took last week....

Henna Tattoos

So I've been thinking about how in the world am I going to cover up my bbl incision scars this summer. Especially if I'm going to wear a 2 piece swim suit, which by the way I have never in my entire life worn. Crazy, right?! Then my hairstylist mentioned henna tattoos (they are temporary) ! I thought it was a great idea. So I will be doing that at least until my scars fade...

I thought I should mentioned this since you might be wondering the same thing. In the past I encounter an article about a woman who caught infection, i think it was outside of the U. S. though. Therefore make sure you research the facility and these tattoo practitioners prior to acquiring one.

Also, I am not sure if these tattoos could impair the scar healing process. So I will ask Dr. Dass about it.
