Why Did I Wait So Long? - Hamilton, New Zealand

ORIGINAL POST

One month on after tummy tuck, breast reduction...

WORTH IT$12,000
One month on after tummy tuck, breast reduction lipo on neck and inside legs. Why did I wait so long? Yes it did hurt but had lots of pain relief, then went down to just plain uncomfortable, now I'm healing really well and have no regrets. Still swollen but bruising has almost all gone. Important to keep wearing compression garment for another three weeks.

Mr. McEwan and his staff made me feel so comfortable the moment I stepped into his office. He was thoroughly understanding of my needs and made some good suggestions. His confidence gave me more determination. His work was truly outstanding. The hospital staff spoke very highly of him as a surgeon and a person. I highly recommend him. Mr. McEwan's nurse/assistant, Anna has such a gentle touch and I felt so well taken care of.

No, important to wear compression garment for the next 3 months! ;) I'm 3.5mos PO and I still wear my support bra to sleep, lighter compression at night, and tighter support during the day, especially if I'm doing something more strenuous or active. Even though we feel better, I think it's still important to keep an eye on maintenance and not let things slip too soon. Happy healing! :)

Thank you SO much for sharing! What was sleeping like the first few nights after surgery for you?

Hi, oh it was uncomfortable. Of course there is nothing better than getting into your own bed. I had two night in the hospital but found it was easy to get more comfortable in my own bed. I really only took paracetamol after the first two nights. Hope this helps.
can I ask how much all these procedures cost. You have 12,000 noted but that seems very low for TT, BR and Lipo. Also would love to see a photo of how you look now...if you up to it. I am looking for a surgeon in Hamilton:) Thanks so much
Looks like a big difference and so glad you are happy. My surgery is scheduled for Sept. Can you share more recent photos to see how things are after swelling goes down? Also, what did you have done to your chin?--was it lipo only or a mini facelift?
Hi how was your surgery? How are you feeling now?
