5 Years Post
Almost 5 years ago I made the leap to have my abdominoplasty and I have never regretted my decision. I still get frustrated at the height of my scar, being above my panty-line, but the it has faded significantly making it less noticeable. This picture you can hardly see it but under different lighting it is more noticeable but the scar has significantly faded and thinned out.
I have decided this year to not care about people noticing the scar as I have worked so hard to get stronger and fitter and want to show off my body a bit.
It took me a few years to get the courage to have this surgery done but, 5 years later, I am so glad I did.

I can't believe how much better I have felt this week. I have been able to resume my normal day to day activities (which unfortunately includes dishes and laundry). I am sore and wiped by the end of the day but every day I feel better. I am still really sore on my lipo areas. I feel it in my thighs more often as that's where pressure is when I sit. I am very happy with the flatness of my tummy and my scar is healing beautifully! I am most frustrated with the swelling in my flanks. There is a ridge on the top of my scar, especially on my left side. I am staying positive though as it has only been 22 days. I am thinking (praying) that it will all settle done and look normal.
Does anyone recommend one make of spanx over another? I need one from my knees all the way up. The reviews are so mixed and there are so many choices!

Here are my 2 week pics. I am happy with the looks of my scar. The swelling is a neusence. I just hope it is swelling and not some crazy weight gain. I am trying to keep a positive outlook. Life gets easier everyday. Tonight is my CG cleaning time so I am trying to massage some of the areas while not compressed. Hs anyone else had any good success with swelling?
