How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Zero complications. Minimal pain. I am stiff and tight if I stay in the same position too long. I plan to stay mostly sedentary and to keep the compression garment on for at least another two weeks. I am ready and motivated to get back to yoga, but I know I am not ready. All of my incisions are scab free except at the t-junction in my groin, so I am using silicon tape across all of my scars except the t-junction. I have been using dry gauze around my t-junction and belly button since these areas stay moist.
I have enjoyed trying on old clothes from my closet that (previously) didn’t fit well. Hard to resist the urge to buy new clothes, but I want to wait a few more months while my body continues to change. My compression garment is easy to wear under jeans, capris and dresses, so I have been getting dressed most days.

Day 18 - I slept in my bed completely flat.
Day 19 - Most of my incisions are scab free after my shower. I gently use a wash rag over my incisions, and what few scabs were left are pulling free. I’m using lotions/Vaseline on my incisions since my skin is dryer than before surgery.
Day 21 - At dinner, I realized that I had not used any Tylenol today. I have a bit more swelling directly above the mons area since this is where my compression garment is loosest. I ordered an ab board from Amazon to help give the area some pressure. I wore it under my compression garment for about 12 hours today. It isn’t incredibly comfortable, but it did seem to help the tenderness I’m feeling in that area. I’m standing completely straight. I’ve been getting dressed the last few days, and I’m thrilled!
