I am getting lipo on my lower back (love handles)...

I am getting lipo on my lower back (love handles) and a fat transfer to the hips to fill in some indentions. I do not have a lot of fat but if there is any leftover, it will go to my butt.

I am also getting a belly button revision to make it smaller and a scar revision to make my scar straight and lower in the middle.

2 Month Results for BB & Scar Revision, Lipo & Fat Transfer

It's been about 2 months since my belly button & scar revision, lipo of the flanks, and fat injections surgery. Let me just say that these combined procedures were really tough to get through! The belly button and scar revision were not tough but the lipo and fat injections were. I couldn't sleep on my stomach nor my back! I couldn't sit for over 2 weeks!!! The garment with the holes on the butt was sooooo hard to get into. I had to constantly take it off because it hurt my butt. I felt so much pressure on my butt and I had no sensation in the lower back because of the lipo. My belly button was very wide, the doctor close the top part of it but I feel like it is still kind of big. I just had my check up and he said he could make it even smaller under local anesthesia in the office. I am just putting scar sheets and waiting to see if it looks better. I am even considering piercing it to cover it. My surgery was done with Dr. Rios in Edinburg, TX. Here are some pictures right after surgery and what it looks like today. Please ask me any questions you would like. Happy healing everyone!!! :)
