So i decided to get surgery with dr carlos recio in cali colombia.... i got done muscle repair ...ab etching...mini tummy tuck and liposculture with fat transfer and butt and hip!!!! Im 16 days post op now and i have seroma! He didnt put a drain in my mini tummy tuck. The massages i got was NOT manuel drainage .... it was lymphatic massage which means he activates your glands and massages toward them so then you can [RS bleep] and sweat it out! I believe this is the reason i got seroma but he tells me it can happend after a tt and lipo done together! Well for the past 5days he been draining me with a syringe ... Honestly i should have gone to another doctor i had in mind

I still have some liquid left and im in nyc. He said he it will come out by urine with time. But until it doesn't leave my body I can't continue my massages ..... yeah he does like natural bodies. But he should have told me that. From.the beginning. I paid for it so he needs to do as the patients ask. .... if i would have known. I would have gone to another doctor. .... p

Hey hun Im good thank you. I still wear my fajas and I had my op in July...I get so paranoid that if I don't wear them I am going to get saggy skin. My waist is tiny however I feel like I just don't have round enough hips so I don't know that to do. I don't want to go through the op again because that pain was absolute hell for me. I was feeling to get dermal fillers to round my hips more as I didn't have enough fat to start with.
How are you doing? Hows the body looking? xx

I had fibrosis in arm's but im getting rid of it little by little
I also had to get my fluids taken out by syringe as he left minimal scarring and my drain hole (beneath my comic bone) closed up after a few lymphatic drainage massages. So I had to get the fluid out by syringe.
But Had I known what I know now I would of chilled out abit more. I was really depressed cause I thought I went into surgery to get lipo and walked out fatter than before lol. I say keep your head up and stay positive you're only 17 days post op. You still have a lot more healing to go through and the more massages you get the better. Dr Recio recommended only 10 massages but I ended up getting an extra 5 more cause I still had a lot of fluid to massage and drain out with syringe [RS bleep]
Oh and I forgot to mention I got my lymphatic drainage massages done in Splendor centre. The package of 10 massages came up to like £50 which is so cheap!
