3 weeks post op?

Almost 4 weeks in 2 days. I lost a lot of fat. I am really bummed about it. But all in all I am happy with how flat my tummy is and my hip dips are gone which is essentially what my original main complaint was prior to surgery. From the side there isn’t much difference at all from before. You only notice the difference from angles and from the front or directly from the back. There’s not much fullness at all from the side view. It’s a much more natural look. While that is fine I wanted more of a dramatic result. That being said I still have 2-4 months left until I see the “final” result so I could still lose even more fat. I have been extremely careful and have not slept or sat on my butt at all. I occasionally have to drive but I always use my pillow and I never drive for longer than 10 minutes. My back and sides are still numb and I continue to massage them for feeling. Sleeping on my stomach has been brutal on my lower back and neck so I occasionally throw an extra pillow under my hips to even out my spine. I had gotten an infection a week after the surgery and it scared me to death how quickly it spread, but the doctor was quick to give me antibiotics and after a few days the redness and heat subsided. I am happy with my body but I am still slightly swollen at my sides/back.

I Had a Good Experience

This is my review so far I will add update photos and what not later on, I am day 4 post op from BBL. The experience leading up to BBL was good, nerve wracking, but good. He seemed a little busy and distracted but that is expected with most doctors with busy schedules. He at least double checked my charts every time and made sure I was correct patient so I was not to worried there. He was very straight forward and honest which was good. Payment and everything (I.e. paperwork/signatures) was over the phone/email. I didn’t have my pre op and full consultation until day before surgery. I understood the changes with covid and everything so it didn’t surprise me. I almost didn’t do the surgery because I was so nervous and was paranoid of my vanity being my demise. But everything went well and I had the best possible nurse (Melanie? I believe was her name). She was very reassuring and friendly and knowledgeable. She was great at explaining everything and answered any and all questions I had left. Before I knew it I was on the operating table and then in a blink I was done. My surgery lasted about 4.5 hours I believe. I can’t say that I was in pain but it was extremely uncomfortable after all my medications wore off around midnight. Mind you I had my surgery at 6am. Getting a hold of the doctor was quick since I had his personal number and there was no middle man to deal with. I never had to contact him until I was ready to do my post op appointment before my flight home. So far so good. I no longer have fluid discharge and I don’t have any lumps or bumps as of yet. But I also started massaging myself the day of surgery. So I’m not sure if that’s helped. You definitely need someone that can take care of you especially when showering because it is rough and takes a lot of work not to pass out when taking off the garment. Especially the first time. I am still faint now and then but I am able to move around a lot. Which I should slow down on since I am getting too confident and don’t want to burn off any calories and lose the precious fat that was transferred. I recommend him so far and hope everyone to do their research to make sure this is the tight doctor for them. So far I can say he was a good choice for me. Also I’m 5’1” and 145lbs. I’ll post my before measurements if I am able to find them later along with my after measurements.
