Scar has settled. At the centre I have some hyper-granulation it’s very small barely noticeable. The rest of the incision is smooth and flat. I used micro pore tape to stop the incision from stretching and keep the scar flat. The scar keeps fading as the weeks go by. I want to redo my bellybutton but I’m probably going to leave surgery alone. The experience was a whole lot for me. The results are great. But I can’t bother. I’m getting tattoos to cover the scars. I get lots of compliments on my body. My waist is snatched so my natural booty looks huge. I’ve been in the gym and eating my veggies and protein.

I'm feeling 80% normal. I actually whipped my hair while dancing with my kids today lol. I've been so stiff the last little while, I can move my hips in a full circle? but it's not "my normal" yet. I've been able to lay on my stomach briefly for my massages. I've even woken up to find myself in the fetal position or semi prone (half on my stomach). My boobs looks great! I still can't believe they're on my body. I had a friend who didn't know I had surgery ask me what the hell did I do? She was in awe... Said I look phenomenal. I honestly feel phenomenal! I'm looking at my old belly pictures and I don't regret making this decision! I've put on dresses that I've retired and cried over having to give up because of my tummy. The change is unbelievable! Its a huge sacrifice... The time lost and the pain experienced. I've lost weeks with my youngest child (not even a year yet). Not being able to pick them up and run to their aid quickly and it's brought forth a different kind of relationship. Its hard... Being that I'm type A and Ive had to sit back and literally let other people do things for me. Even up to this point I won't pick up anything too heavy.
Next week is a new week.... I'll be clear to work out again. I've been wearing my faja only in the day and taking it off at night. My lower back is still numb although I itch a tonn after a shower. I lower the water temp to not dry out my skin and lotion my skin immediately. Scar is flat and thin... Its tender though. I keep micropore take on it and leave it on for a few days before changing it again. I'll have to look into putting sunblock on my scar. Its gonna be a hot summer! Gotta protect it from sun damage.
Hope you all are well!

Almost 4 weeks post op.
Incisions are healing well. I still have some stitches polking out. My body is beginning to expel the ones that won't absorb. There aren't any more scabs on my body. I've been using scar away and im gonna buy some merderma especially for my tummy tuck scar. Its sooooo long. Kinda depressing and im hoping it doesn't darken.
My partner massages me 4 times a week. The back lipo burns. You can't even tap my back without me feeling pain. At least the numbness is going away. I didn't get a bbl. That's my natural booty! Hehe But I find with swelling of my abdomen in the day that I can't stand straight and my booty tucks. Almost disappears lol. So it's not as big as im used to. I've sat and thought ... Damn I should've taken the free bbl lol. But even Dr Mallol said I didn't need one. But it's hard to look back there with my posture tucked in. They say it takes time for your posture to readjust so you get the curve back in your spine.
I've been going out and running errands. I got my nails painted etc today. So yes a little by little I see improvement in daily activities.
I don't know if I mentioned... I had a hugeeeee hernia in the center of my abdomen. That my ab separation wasn't really that bad. But in fact the hernia was about 10-15cm in length vertically and extended horizontally 5 cm. When u pressed it you would literally hear a squish sound. Under my muscles would touch I could actually make them connect with no issue. I went to dr up here in Canada and they dismissed it as being diastasis. One said it was a hernia... I even went to a hernia specialist who thought it was too small to operate on when I was 5 months post pregnancy. But dr Mallol told me himself it was quite huge after opening my stomach up. He pushed it back in and did muscular plication. I eat food now and my stomach stays flat. No issues! Im still swollen so my inches aren't all the way down. But im happy with the change minus the scar.
Can't wait to hit up the gym.
