Almost 8 months post op & still loving my butt!
Before & After 4 months post
3 weeks post BBL!!!
Lipo foam
She suggested that if I continue to use the Lipo foam that I move it 1/2 inch up or down each time I wear it to avoid making indentions on my body. I have decided to only wear the triangular piece of lipo foam that goes right above my butt crack while I'm sleeping. When I'm awake, it's nothing but my garment.
Faja garment
She said that my surgery garment was still fitting pretty snug at week two. However now at week three, I can feel that it's significantly more comfortable for me, which is a No-No LOL. Compression is so important throughout the healing process. I'll be ordering a new smaller garment this weekend. If you ladies recommend any particular brand, please let me know.
Fluid & swelling
A lot of the fluid retention has gone down, because pre op I was 200 pounds. Immediately post op I was 213 pounds. At 3 weeks post-op now, I'm back at 200 pounds. I haven't had any alcohol for a month out of fear of swelling up LOL. I still have some tenderness to touch and swelling on my back, which is understandable because she did aggressive lipo and that area. I only take the bromelain supplement pill when my swelling is particularly bothersome, not taking it every single day anymore as of last week.
Diet & exercise
I have been eating clean. I can't wait to get back into the gym, but Dr. Sato says I have to wait 4 to 6 weeks. I am going to email her right at week 4 next week and ask if I can head back to the gym and how hard I can go.
Bye bye lumps & bumps
I have been sleeping with a Ab board I believe it's called. Here's the link to it: https://www.amazon.com/Tabla-Abdominal-Liposuction-Compression-Garments/dp/B00PG4PK0U
I do think it's been contributing to helping keep my stomach flat, lump and bump free. That, along with my personal massages. I have a deep tissue massage scheduled at Massage Heights this week, so I'm looking forward to a professional being able to reach all the spots I can't myself.
Really no other updates ladies. Just back at work, back sitting on my butt, although not as much. In fact, I have been making it a point to stand up A LOT more at work, because I work a desk job, like standing probably 90% of my 8 hour shift! Coworkers and friends who know nothing about the surgery have been complimenting me on my weight loss and my shape. Besides that, I'm living my life like it's golden LOL. My next appointment with Dr. Sato is at post op week 5, which is in 2 weeks. I'll update you ladies anything interesting happens before then. Thanks for the support dolls!
Provider Review
Dr. Sato is AMAZING, so skilled, knowledgeable and personable. She took her time with me during our consultation, answering every question I had and more. I came to her with realistic expectations and she gave me impressive results. People have complimented me on my figure and my butt since my surgery. I love that it looks so natural on my frame that I can actually get away with saying it's squats to those who I don't want all in my business lol. I don't like a whole lot of attention, but when I go out, I feel the eyes following me. Even now, nearly 8 months post op, I'll occasionally text message Dr. Sato pictures of me. She responds and knows exactly who I am. That means a lot to me that I'm not just another booty to her lol. Her staff is so sweet and accommodating too. I'll be going back to her to get my arms taken care of pretty soon. I have also referred two friends, one who came with me to the consultation and one who came with me to a post op. They love her too and are considering taking the leap themselves. With all the horror stories and disappointments I've heard of, I feel so blessed to have found Dr. Sato and her team!
