my doctor appointment went well...said as far as my workouts go dont do anything that hurts....next day sore is ok...but nothing that hurts me...i will have to wait approx 4-6 onths for results...still swelling...in the morning i am a lot flatter...he said thats what it will always look like after my body adjust...compression garmentas needed....really encouraged me to massage my scars, its up to me if i want to use scar treatment..his pa rubbed my scar and said when i rub over it and look at it...thats what he is most likely to look like when i am healed! (neat trick)...i am a little unhappy with my sides (pictures dont show this...i will try to take a pic of it) my sides have an area i pinch and he said...stop pinching it...hahhaha...but said there is a office procedure to lenghten the scar which will help (just numbing it locally)...but i am to wait 6 months and see...i said i am not ready to do any kinda of cutting right now! hahaha...after working all day i am swollen...but i can carry my 23 pound baby now...and no pain with a lot of movement...sneezing and coughing still tighens /hurts a bit....i cant say enough how happy i am i choose dr. desantits...he is a hidden jewel and his pa jennifer is great!

Great results, Sclark! Your belly is really smooth, and your scar looks like it's healing well! Hope the healing continues well for you!

You look great. Your flanks will probably continue to look better every week as your swelling goes down.
