Still Healing

I'm about two months post and I absolutely love my butt!!! My waist could be a little smaller, but I am just hoping its just swelling. This is my last procedure, so whatever I have at this point I have. I'm back working out 3-4 days a week now. I haven't worn my faja in two weeks. I just couldn't do it anymore cuz it was killing my inner thighs. Lord it feel so good to not have it on. I do have a shaper that I wear though. If anyone knows where I can find an xs please let me know.

try inthepinkroom.com and that may be why your waist isnt where you want it to be because i heard the faja is what actually does the shaping during the healing process and that you should wear it between 3-6 months after sx but you still look great luv

Try Amazon.com or ms.faja.com and yes you need to wear your compression everyday Hun ... Please don't messed up your results ok .. August 20th I'll be 6 months post op and still wear my garment everyday ... I just stayed a few weekend ago to not wearing it 14 hours and Saturday nights I sleep without it ... It was hard to go without it at first but it a slow process , now I still have a bit of swelling from my belly button down to my pubic areas ... Stay encouraged best wishes .

Waistline

is there anyone that can tell me how long did it take for your waistline to go in after lipo? It's been 5 weeks tomorrow for me and I'm thinking I should have a smaller waistline by now. When I look in the mirror I see the same look that I had before sx.

you look great luv they say 4-6 months will be when you see you final results...i also seen a helpful tip to tie a hair scarf around your waist tight over top of your faja to provide more compression just on the waist line

Get yourself an abdominal binder from Amazon and wear it over your faja at least 4-8 hrs per day put it a little below your waistline and all the way up under your breast as tight as you can be comfortable... Hope this helps .

I had a tummy tuck , muscle repair and LIPO , my waist was about 53 before SX and now my waist is 35 ... So give it around 5-6 months when 95% of the swelling is gone ... Girl I kept buy clothes because I never really understood about the process with these procedures so now I end up with a bunch of new clothes that are was too big ... Hun just give your body time and let it heal ... Your stomach is going to be so flat with a tiny waist and a banging booty .... Trust me .. You will see ... Happy healing Hun .
