37 Years Old, mother of 3 for bbl, tt, and liposuction

Hello RS sisters. I just wanted to give an update on my progress and results after surgery with Dr Almonte.
Honestly I have to say I'm a bit disappointed in my results. My stomach is still very loose in the upper portion as I had previously expressed concern. Truly I know that its better than it was but it hurts me to think about not having thorough work and I feel like maybe I was rushed.
A few weeks ago I sent a message to Lesley asking her why my stomach looked this way and she replied that I should have did the fleur-de-lis tummy tuck instead of the traditional one. I honestly would've considered this just to make this stomach of mine tighter. Also I'm thinking I may have some damage to some of my nerves where the liposuction was done near my underarms. I have had a lot of discomfort moving both of my arms but especially my left one.
Overall I think Almonte and her staff are very nice people. I don't think I would fully recommend her even though I was hoping to be one of her instagram models. For the price paid I'm satisfied, not overly, just satisfied. If not for Almonte and her I would never have ever considered wearing a bikini so I'm not trying to give her a bad rep, just sharing my experience with you ladies to help you make the best decision for yourself.

So I'm a little over 3 weeks post op now. My swelling has went down quite a bit and my bruising is mostly gone. I removed my drain a few days ago after asking Dr Tania. It wasn't draining much and I thought it may be ok. Upon pulling it out I seen that most of it was clogged. I was also having a lot of pain. More pain than I could tolerate so I messaged her again and she told me it was normal. Man I have heard that phrase a bunch since this procedure. I waited 2 more days and I wound up going to the er. I had a CT scan and it showed I have a small infection and a seroma that has developed. So now I'm looking for a doctor at home who will take care of me. Almonte has an associate in New York but it's a bit of a distance for me. I wouldn't mind if it was a one time thing, but I read that seromas need to be drained over a few times. I spoke with one local surgeon who said it would be $500 for a consultation and that wouldn't include any procedures or draining I would need. So I am just going to do a brief look around a bit more and I may wind up taking the drive up there.
