My husband made a promise to me years ago that after we had a few children I could asses the bod and treat myself to some plastic surgery..so after doing much research I decided to use Beleza MedSpa (had great reviews online). The surgery was yesterday and today I went to another location for a lymphatic massage (which i was able to drive myself to). I'm pretty sore, but it isn't unbearable...i took a shower this morning and removed all of the bandages..nothing appeared to be seeping anymore so i left the bandages off and just put back on the support garment. it's hard to say really how pleased i am with the results at this point because everything is still pretty swollen, but one thing i'm definitely not happy about is my breasts..the left one is noticeable smaller than the right one (and even it - left one- IMO isn't much bigger than the original size and definitely isn't a cup size larger which was what I was told by the Dr. and was this expecting...)...

Anyway, I called the clinic and complained and was told by Dr. Broder's assistant (Tori) to come back in..i drove back to the clinic after the massage (different location) and after speaking with Torri (Dr. was in surgery) put my mind at ease (somewhat!) that we just need to give it some time...so that is what I'm going to do (no choice really!)...I have a sinking feeling that I'm going to need another fat transfer procedure to my breasts..I really feel like I shouldn't have to pay more $, but pretty much signed my life away before the surgery... Will keep u updated... side note: i recall at the end of the surgery them (Dr. and asst) holding up a really small mirror (which i could barely see into!) for me to examine my breasts in...and we all decided the right one needed more volume..so they added more fat to it..I regret not triple looking after this to be sure it matched the other...guess we were all pretty exhausted and me pretty loopy from the 3 lorazepam pills...!@#!@$@

Awesome, looking forward to seeing your pics!

It's definitely hard being patient, but you have to give your body time to heal before the results start to show!

No, I was there alone. You were telling me about your issues with the breasts and I was telling you about all the photofacials and botox that I have had done there. It was pretty early in the party and I was hogging up a lot of food.

Hello..Well this is the 8th week and I've had approx 5 lymphatic massages..so far, i'm somewhat satisfied with the results...i don't look pregnant anymore..however i was expecting my breasts to be larger (am starting to see the stretch marks again due to breastfeeding..) and stomach flatter (the doughnut around my belly button is still puffy..)..so most likely i'll need a "touch up"...am opting tho to forgo another fat transfer to the breasts and get implants instead..
