12 Days Post Op
WORTH IT$11,875
Happy to report that all is well with recovery process. Had 1st post op appointment day 7, wounds are healing well, still have paper tape on them. Wearing compression garment really helps with swelling. I will start scar treatment in about 10 days. I'm very pleased with outcome so far, and love my new belly; will be nice to see final result in months to come. I will post a picture 12 days post op. Happy healing ladies!

Five days post op
Mostly taking ES Tylenol for pain. Trying to eat healthy, low sodium meals. Had BM without problem. Walking almost straight. Tummy below BB feels like "Fake Skin", no sensitivity in that area. I guess that will come back overtime. Overall, I feel pretty good. Swelling and tightness to be expected. Happy with progress this far. Praying fo no complications.

Sounds like you're doing great!! It was the swelling that I didn't like the most during recovery.. thankfully it all goes away :-) Praying for you!

Thank you! I leave my compression garment on most of the time, but I do take it off for few hours at a time. Did you keep CG on 24/7?

I had a lot of swelling so kept it on all the time at first. I kind of liked that thing, LOL. It made me feel put back together. How are you doing today?

Feel good today. CG definitely helps with swelling. First PO appt is tomorrow. Last night I slept in my bed instead of recliner. Feel more rested today.

The first couple of weeks are the hardest, you have such a positive outlook :-) Glad you got some good rest! It feels good when things get back to normal again (back to your bed).

I am really glad you are doing so well! I am scheduled with Dr Turkle on Nov 18th and am hoping for a similar experience.

Thanks! I researched ps and read a lot of reviews. I am only 6 days post op and think I'm going to love my final results. Good luck!
