THE BEST Plastic Surgeon in the Cincinnati Area......

A year has passed and I am so happy with the results. Over the past year I have augmented the healing with 3 sessions of microneedling, coupled with Alastin's Skin Nectar. The microneedling was uncomfortable but not overly so- after a couple of days it was fine. I had dreaded the lollipop surgery because of the scar but it's all good now. And I love all of the Alastin products- they are expensive but worth it.

No complaints at all. I have been using Vaseline on the incisions to help them along with healing, alternating with just letting them air dry. I wear the compression garment pretty much 24/7, except to launder it, and sometimes I take a 2 or 3 hour break. It honestly feels much better to leave the garment and sports bra on. Have been sleeping sitting up since surgery- now starting to lay down to sleep. Drain is gone (thank goodness). Scars look like scars lol and I'm hoping they heal nicely. Rash on breast is where I had a bandaid over the nipple and it tore off skin when I removed it. I can't wait to get back to the gym and tone up (these pictures help me realize how much I need that! but I had 3 back surgeries last year so I need to remind myself to be patient)

16 days post op and no complaints, other than I STILL have the drain. They don't remove it until it is under 30cc and I have been right on the 30cc for a week. 2 days ago, I had 50cc fill up of blood and went into office. Apparently it was a blood clot that broke free, and I was told to stop moving around so much (I have a tough time sitting still.....). Otherwise, loving the results. Still really swollen, and back/flanks are seriously sore from lipo! Also want to mention that I had a slight lifting of skin over vaginal area as there wasn't enough loose skin to use to pull the scar on my abdomen down (if you look at birthmark on stomach, you can see how far down he pulled my skin). Loving the firmness....
