5 weeks post op
Not a whole lot has changed. Just decrease in swelling and a lot of softening to my butt. When I look naked I feel like it’s gone down a lot, but then in clothes it is perfect! I took some up close pictures so you can see the definition (I’m not flexing at all!) and see my scars. My lipo scars will end up being very faint, it’s the drain scar that sucks. I’ve been using bio oil on it everyday, hopefully that helps. I’ve been going without my faja during the day and only wearing it at night. It definitely helps wearing it. I wake up to my skin looking tight and no swelling. By the end of my work day I can feel the swelling creeping in so I put my faja on right away. I’m going without it to acclimate my skin to wearing clothing though. It’s sensitive to the touch and delicate feeling to clothing still. Couple more weeks and I can start wearing jeans, that’ll be nice considering the weather. Good thing I’m forced to stay home in sweats because of this coronavirus crisis. Lol
Reduced swelling and body is softening!
I am a little over 3 weeks post op now. Where I live is somewhat of a vacation/resort area so finding a post op massage is impossible. Everything is luxury and spa like. Therefore I have been doing my own massages, which is helping but definitely nothing like the real deal. I went to Miami 3 weeks post op, 6 hour flight. Awful! I had to constantly stand up and walk around. The bbl pillow is great if you can lean forward so it’s perfect for when I’m working (went back to work at 10 days post op) but vertical weight or leaning back kills your thighs and low back. I still have very little strength in my low back, glutes and groin. Still slow to bend down and almost impossible to tie my shoes lol. I had a massage in Miami, it was amazing. Ultrasound, suction cup fluid movement and lymphatic massage. This weekend I am driving 3 hours to go to a post op spa that I found on Dr Campos’ IG. I’m really looking forward to it. If you only have access to basic lymphatic massages, then just do them yourself and save money. If you have access to actual “post op lipo massages” do them!
The last 2 days I have been itching really badly. My skin felt like a bad sunburn. It’s normal for lipo to cause burning and itching sensations but this felt different. I stopped using the foam that Dr Campos gave me. It has a silicone backing. I switched to my 360 lipo foams from amazon which aren’t typically used until week 5. So far it’s helping tremendously! No more itching. I am finally on my tightest clasps of my faja since my swelling is reduced. My butt seems like it’s gone down just slightly, but not necessarily a big size difference, it’s just softened. Which I’m happy about!

Ab and foam pictures
I tried to take step by step pictures of my foam/faja dressing. The imprints from the foams for my “6 pack” won’t stay like that Dr Campos says. It’s only to apply the pressure heavier in the areas he etched.
Waiting for my plane right now. TSA was easy, I can walk totally normal. I just let them know as soon as I placed my items to go through the scanner that I just had surgery and have a drain. They acted like they see see this all the time, and I’m sure they do lol. They just said I would need an additional pat down. No big deal. The agent even let me slide with my 5oz lipo gel in my carry on because I told him I needed it to tighten my skin and repair the bruising and tissue. He asked if he could have some for his body too then lol.
I’m SO excited to get home. I haven’t seen my step son and boyfriend in 8 days! It’s definitely worth it, but hard to do to come alone. My 3rd and final roommate at Cocoon left this morning for her surgery with Dr Campos. She is 22 and came all the way from New York by herself because Campos is THE BEST!
