Late 30s, a few kids and Doing Something for Me - Harrisburg, PA

I have been in for two consultations and will have my surgery in two sessions with the first one being March 4th and the 2nd March 11th. I am doing a combo surgery on the 4th. I will be having labiaplasty with fat grafting to the labia majora and also smart lipo to my upper and lower abdomen. On the 11th we will follow up with smart lipo to my flanks. I am very excited I'm cannot believe that is in just a week from tomorrow. I have taken a half day on the 4th and will go in for my surgery then. I have off the following week completely and I will return to work March 14th. So I have a good 10 days to recover from the labiaplasty before I have to go to work. I've heard mixed reviews on the recovery of SmartLipo so at this point I'm not sure what to expect. I have a high tolerance for pain, but I don't know. Anyway I'm going to include some photos as horrifying as they may be. I do not have any good photos of my abdomen and flanks, but I will add the ones my doctor took what's the surgery has passed.

He did the wedge technique and I watched with a mirror. I did like how it looked when he was finished but now it's it's pretty sore and I don't have a mirror to look at it. I'm going to have to get one today. I'm not sure how I feel about the liposuction yet because it looked kind of uneven and my skin looks loose but they were still that fluid inside the numbing fluid and the uneven parts were the incision so they were probably just extra swollen. When I get the energy to go take a shower later I will check everything out and I will keep all you ladies updated. Thanks!

I just took a shower and it wasn't too bad. I use the shower head sprayer and put it on so it kind of like drizzles not a hard spray in order to wash off any blood. Surprisingly there wasn't much blood at all. I'm definitely uncomfortable but I wouldn't say I'm in pain. Even my abdomen where I had the lipo isn't that bad. I did just take another pain pill but other than that I haven't had one since yesterday right after surgery. I got a peek after the shower and so far I am ecstatic with all my results. I don't have before pictures of my ass so I'm not going to show them to you yet I will wait until I get them from the doctor. However I just took some photos of the nether region and I will share them with you now. Oh and he did a wedge resection with fat grafting to the labia majora and while he was in there he did a small hood reduction at no extra charge which I was very happy about because I was worried about having too much left up there but it looks so good already. I have been icing on and off and I'm trying to relax today. Yesterday I was completely unable to relax because my one and a half year old is a maniac hahahaha. When I look at it with the mirror, it looks better than it looks in these pictures like it looks like there's one part that is like extra but their suits are there and I don't think it's going to look uneven at all. At least I'm hoping not but it's already so weird like when I was washing in the shower it was so bizarre to not have all that extra stuff to wash. I almost felt like I couldn't find everything at first but it's there just so much smaller
