No- Drain Full TT W Muscle Repair and Lipo - Cary, NC

Can't believe it's been a year! No issues to report, still loving my results. Dr. S is the best!

Not much to report other then I am thrilled to pieces with the results of my surgery. I can do almost everything like normal. I have minor discomfort when I am in the push up or plank type of position and have not attempted sit ups yet, aside from that I am running and working out pretty much like normal. Here are the pics from my 3 month check up with Dr. S and one super recent picture.

I can't believe it has been 4 weeks since my surgery. I love my results and am finding that I am just now able to get through a normal day of work and parenting my 3 "energetic" kids without feeling so exhausted in the evening. The little poking, pulling pain I had in my belly button last week has gone away and I am regaining a lot more feeling in my skin over my stomach and sides. I had some lipo of my love handles area with my tummy tuck which up until now was totaly painless because I felt numb all over for weeks after my surgery. I am now noticing an occasional mild burning feeling under the skin in my sides and lower back. The post op documentation my Dr gave me describes this as normal for healing lipo areas, but I find it interested that I have felt nothing in those areas until now. I am still wearing my marena compression garments around the clock. In just the past few days I have been taking the surgical binder off for a few hours at a time. While my Dr has approved me wearing only the Marena garment, I find the binder gives me comfort and stability especially when doing a lot of standing or walking. I am going to continue to start taking the binder off more and more though so I can begin weaning myself off it. I decided to try on (and buy) a bikini today to celebrate 4 weeks, hurray!
