Just over 2 months post.

So it's been over 2 months and besides the incessant swelling, there isn't much else to report. I put the pre and post picsside by side and I do notice a difference. My PS told me that in won't see optimal results until probably 3 - 4 months post. So I am being patient, but some days I question my decision since I still feel the love handles. The loose skin on my lowe backside is looking somewhat better, so that is a bit of a relief. :-)

I will wait a few more weeks and post more pics of my progress.

4 weeks post op

The last couple of weeks have been relatively uneventful. I have gotten a couple of massages from a pro masseuse who does an excellent job working the hard areas on the flanks. It's strange because sometimes they feel really soft and non-existent. Then some days I feel the hard lumps under the skin. But the areas are not very big, probably the size of a lime.

I still get swollen, but some days are better than others. I am being patient and giving it time, but some days I question my decision to have gone through with this. No so much for the recovery, but because I don't see much of a difference when I compare pictures. But then I have had moments in which I am very happy and definitely notice a difference in the treated areas. I'm just worried the loose skin won't snap back in the lower back and I'll always have that crepey look. I took some pictures to compare before and after but not close up of the loose skin.

Oh well, I will give it more time and see how the final result will be. :)
