6th day Post Op
WORTH IT$6,200
Everyday is getting better! I'm still sore of course. Tomorrow I go work which I'm kinda nervous because I'm a teacher so it's kinda of a non stop job. My swelling fluctuates which is kind of annoying. I'm not really leaking from my incisions anymore which is awesome! Like I said before I have 9 so trying to make sure it doesn't get infected is really my #1 priority. Now, I hate my abdomen binder! It bends and creases which causes me pain! When I go to my post op I'm going to see if I can get another type of compression garment. Another than it being painful you can not discreetly wear it under your clothing. I wear it 24/7 even though is hurts me. My post op appt is on Tuesday so I'm looking forward to it. I will update Tuesday!

4th day
Hey guys, I'm still feeling sore! I am able to walk around and I finally got out there house. I know I need to walk more but it's hard because I don't want to feel the soreness! I have my mom to motivate me to get up and walk around. I'm only leaking from the side incisions and the back incisions. I still get lightheaded when I stand up, I've been trying to drink more water and juice.

How has the recovery been? So far you look great!
It's been good. I would say definitely have someone there to help you after the surgery. My mom had been staying with me since I got back home. The pain is not as bad as it was on the first day but I am sore. It's the third day and I'm not leaking as much. The compression garment is annoying but you have to wear it. Today I will update with pictures!
I had my consult with Dr Newell. Not the most personable doctor but great experience and lots of good results. Which in the end, I want results not a new BFF. I think I will be choosing him. Im doing a TT and Lipo. Leaking? Like out of the holes from the Lipo? Doesnt it get all over the compression garments? Would you say its worth it?
Which other doctors did you have a consultation with?
The consultation was very short! He was very polite. He was very straight forward. I read a lot about him and everyone said that they felt he wasn't personable or he didn't spend a lot of time with them. After doing my research he seem to be the best doctor to do what I wanted done. Before procedure I met with him and he very was reassuring!
Leaking- yes I have 9 incisions! You cover the incisions with Kotex pads. The first day I did bleed through the pads and it got on my compression garment. They gave me two compression garments so when I take a shower I use a clean one. My mom said use cold water to get the blood out of the compression garment; no bleach!
Yes it's so worth it! When I change my pads I will take a picture to upload!
I look so much different it's amazing :)
He was the only doctor I had a consult with. I knew he was the right one after all my research and after meeting with him.
Wow, ok good to know. Feel free to share any other tidbits or things that were helpful! Im so nervous but excited!
