So far healing has been not too bad. I have had my days where I've felt worse than others physically and mentally! Went back to work on Friday and cause my job is really physical with a lot of moving around and carrying things by the end of my shift I was exhausted.. (10 hours straight of being on my feet)
Had a bit of s down day yesterday as trying to get dressed to go out for lunch with the family was just a nightmare as nothing fits since I'm still swollen and I have to still wear the compression garment. Just wanted to stay at home and be a hermit to heal. Plus I still had to work later as well.
Hoping that the puffiness will go down soon as I feel as though I have put on weight since most of my tighter clothes don't fit me at the moment.
The tingling sensation and tight feeling is almost non existent. Doing regular massages myself everyday to make sure there are no lumps and things heal evenly plus going in to get massages done by the nurses every few days. Still staying positive as I know each day things will get better. :)

Looking great doll!! Try the arnica gel for the bruises. At first I was skeptical about this homeopathic gel but it works like a charm. My thighs used to be black and blue and after using it for a few days now the bruises almost gone.

Hey doll.. are you doing anything to prevent scars on the incisions?
November 8, 2016
Just wondering
November 27, 2016
Hey! Sorry for the late reply. The incisions are quite small so they have healed up and can't really tell they are there anymore now. I do massage myself everyday for 15mins with bio oil thoighto help even out the healing of the skin and preventing a scars from forming.
How has recovery for you?

Day 3

So it's been a full 3 days since my procedure. I'm starting to feel a lot better, less sore and finding it much easier to move around now. Tomorrow I'll be going to my post op check up! Looking forward to being able to get back to most of my normal routine.

How's your bruising? Looked pretty minimal in your pics yesterday. Glad your recovering well :)

Hey there! Yeh brusing is very quite minimal.. did you have bruising in your pubic area? I look very swollen! Don't like how I'm looking but I know I have to be patient as it's still early days! Did your lumps end up going away?
October 31, 2016
Yep! Pubic bruising and swelling was the worst! Had bruising down the inside of my thighs too.. gravity I guess.. I had my lumps injected last Monday and they're pretty much gone now. I see the dr next Monday for final check up and comparison photos..

Hi there,

Could you please provide an update, I've just had the procedure done yesterday. Feeling very painful. Can't wait to wash my garment and see my stomach. Feeling like i've just been run over by a bus!
November 5, 2016
Hi Natty28,
Yep that's how I felt the first day! If it makes you feel any better you'll everyday it gets easier and changes are definitely visible. First time I took my garment off I had mixed feelings but mostly positive! I had my procedure done on Friday and felt heaps better by Wednesday and even went back to gym on Thursday and did a light weights session. I'm still really swollen and have bruises in weird spots like public area, inner thighs and on my back. Hope recovery isn't too bad and you start feeling better soon.

Day 2 Post Op

fitmum86
Finally I was able to shower and take off all the bandages and drains! Had little to barely any leakage which was awesome. Was really nervous with unveiling to see what I looked like. So far I'm quite happy with my results.. I look like a wrinkled sheet but cannot remember the last time my lower tummy was that flat! Pain is not so bad just finding it hard to get up/sit or lay down. I actually prefer walking around..

Same with me! When I first wake up I can barely get out of bed, but once I start moving I feel better. I feel like an elderly person with arthritis. I can see your curves!
October 30, 2016
Same here if I have sat or laid down in a spot for a long period of time I find it painful to get up but once I get moving I'm fine. Hope you are recovering well too! Thanks at this moment in time I'm not to look at myself in the mirror too much as I feel bulky and disgusting. I know it will take time for everything to heal and for my body to look half normal.
