Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

6 weeks post op
Six weeks and so far so good. I've had no real complications other than some spitting stitches that are annoying. My boobs are coming down slowly but still very hard.
My TT scar isn't and even as I had hoped but it is very low. I'm pretty flat in the morning but swell hell hits in the afternoon.
The jury is still out on my final result as I can't really tell that I had Lipo to the outer thigh or love handles as I requested. Plus, I'm pretty sure I have a dog ear. Hopefully it's just swelling I will continue to see improvements. Overall, I'm satisfied so far.

2 weeks and 3 days post op
So, recovery is still going well but slower than what I thought. I'm probably about 99 to 95% upright but it's a strain in my back. I'm using a 3 n 1 postpartum binder during the day because it has boning and helps me stand straighter.
On about day 9 or 10 i developed a shooting, throbbing pain in my right arm. I emailed Gail and she said it was healing nerves. It got progressively worse until it was a pinpoint pain at the too if my implant, traveling through my armpit, hotspot on my elbow and then down through my forearm to finger tips. I was taking ibuprofen and Tylenol around the clock and it got so bad one night i had to take a real pain pill. I'm also using arnica gel and cream for swelling. That pain finally subsides on day 17.
I'm still swollen and have some soreness on my Lipo sites. Coughing or sneezing is a [RS bleep]!
I feel better every day. My incisions are all closed and most of the scabbing is gone. The belly incision is still raised and hard but improving.
I can stand and walk a little longer each day. I would like to fast forward a few months to see my final results but I'm happy for now. I'm very swollen so I look bigger than before and my breast are high and tight. Patiently waiting for things to fall in place.

Drain removal
Drain removal
I read a lot about people havung serious discomfort from their drains but mine were more of a nuisance than painful.
Dr P had me wait until I was draining less than 30 30ml in a 24 hour period for 2 days in a row. That came on day eight.
I have a friend that's a nurse practitioner and one that is an RN who volunteered to pull them. The way everyone's schedules are, we couldn't work it out so in steps my very squeamish sister and YouTube!
There was a little pinch and burn but it was over in a flash. I did take a pain pull before just in case. The dread was much worse than the actual procedure. I should stay out of some of these FB groups! I know everyone is different but it really was only bad enough to make a face and then it was done. The sucking sound was gross!
It's day 10 today. I can say with total honesty the worst part if this is not being able to stand up straight. I have some tenderness in my and but real pain in my lower back. I can only walk or stand for a few minutes because of it. I'm getting better every day.
