Smart Lipo Triplex - Upper Lower Abs & Flanks- Franklin Lakes, NJ

Had my post op appointment Monday (2 weeks from Surgury day exactly) and finally got my before and after photos. Changed my status to worth it. Still have swelling and some hard spots as well as numbness and itching but coming along. Doctor said all of it was totally normal and ok'd me to work out but taking it slow since. Not too much work on weight machines and not too much stretching. Don't want to interfere with the incisions healing. Mostly doing cardio. Some days I look more swollen than others. Can't wait for the two month mark!

Woke up today with some discomfort. Was more stiff and sore. I had the doctor call in pain meds just so I can sleep without discomfort and heal more quickly. Other than that I'm moving fine. Some trouble from sitting to standing and vice versa but I can tell I'm progressing well.

I took my compression garment and bandages off and all but two of 6 incisions have closed so I put bandaids on the ones that closed and gauze on the ones that were still draining. I will check them again tomorrow to see how they progress.

I'm also thinking about getting a second garment so that I can shower, wash the one I've been wearing with no downtime in-between. Seems like the smartest thing to do. Wish someone would have made that suggestion.

Appearance. So far my stomach looks very flat. I can tell there's swelling but I don't see any bruising yet.
