360 Abdominal Lift, Lipo of Flanks and a Small Amount of Fat Injected into Butt

Just had surgery 2 days ago with Exparel and let you tell this has been the easiest surgery I’ve ever had. My Dr. has developed some techniques through the years that apparently make a huge difference in recovery. I’ve had very little pain medication and other than major soreness I’ve had little pain.
I stayed overnight and was up and walking 3-4 hours after surgery. Also walked a lot yesterday after I got home. Today is my second full day after surgery and I woke up feeling great after a good nights sleep.Barring any unforeseen complications I think this is going to be a pretty easy recovery.
I am close to seventy years old and have lost the same 15 to 20 lbs numerous times causing loose skin. I started working out about 6 years ago and it just didn’t look like it if you saw my middle . I workout about 10 hrs a week and have maintained my weight for about 5 years now. It was hard decision because none of my family thought I needed it because I camouflaged it so well in my clothes. Will post before and after pics soon.

Went back for first post op visit yesterday and had 1 of 2 drains removed was able to drive myself as I’m off pain medication at this point. I was really close to getting both removed but wasn’t quite there on second drain.
I am still doing great and feeling good. This has been so much easier than I anticipated and so far everything has gone smoothly. I have very little bruising and swelling and incision is healing well.
I couldn’t be any happier with my results, what a difference!
I can’t say enough about my Dr.’s expertise and talent! I highly recommend him , his staff is wonderful too.
I go back next week and most likely will have second drain removed and can get into some fitted clothes!

I haven’t posted in awhile because my recovery has been so non eventful. I’ve been back to the Dr. twice and each time had a drain removed. Didn’t feel a thing.
I couldn’t be happier with my results, I will even be able to wear a two piece bathing suit!
I highly recommend Dr. Sawan. He is a very skilled surgeon and couldn’t have made me look any better! And he also has a wonderful and very efficient staff. Everyone is so nice. And while not cheap the prices are very reasonable.
