Thank you for taking the time to write about your experience. I found this very helpful. Please keep us posted on your second and third month post-op results.
Thank you for posting! I just have a question... everyone talks about using their garment 24/7 what kind did you get and how often do you wear them.. because I can imagine..it gets tiring?

one month post op

Well... So far I am happy with my results but it is not the outcome I was hoping for. I can tell that my stomach has went down from the original size. I think that my beginning size may have had a lot to do with it. I was hoping to get almost tummy tuck flat stomach with this lipo. And right now I'm far from that lol. I use to have a very bulging fat roll, that is now gone. Which makes my clothes fit alot better. I only had my upper and lower abdomen done so I still have my sides/flanks.

As for the healing process, I feel a lot better. Still have swelling in the middle and lower parts or my stomach. The lower part is still kind of numb and hard. I get a few aches at night but nothing to complain about. I went to a follow up for massage and they said this is normal and if I keep massaging it it will loosen up.

I will post pictures later today

2 week post op

Well it has been two weeks since my procedure. My incisions have pretty much healed, lately I've been experiencing some itching. But over all I'm doing 95% better from day one. I still have aches off and on. I have been keeping my garments on even sleeping in them I might take them off for about 2hrs but then I wear a tight fitting girdle 24-7 under the garments. The swelling has gotten worse it seems at the lower part of my stomach it looks bigger than before. @ 2 weeks I look bigger than my post op picture :(

Thanks for coming back and posting an update- we love to hear how things are going.  I think the swelling is pretty normal- have you talked to your doctor about it?

Any new pics?
