Here are some 3 & 4 weeks PO photos. I'm much smaller than pre-op but still very swollen. I have a large area near incision that is bulged out (which I hate) but I'm trying to be patient. I also have some fluid above my BB that I'm hoping will go away soon.

I am scheduled with Dr. Van Natta in March. I wanted to see how you were doing and if you have any suggestions for me. I am also having a TT with lipo. I will be 42 this year and have wanted this for 17 1/2 years. My first stretched the heck out of me and I've never been the same. I am beyond excited but worried about all the reviews I read about the pain post lipo. Hope you are doing well.

Hi Lilnicki!
Yaa for you and your upcoming TT! It can be absolutely nerve racking leading up to it. I am now 3 mos PO and overall happy I did it and the pain is like childbirth in that it's awful but forgettable. I'm having some concerns w area of my TT and Dr V and I discussed revision yesterday. I wi say that I was discouraged bc my revision of 3 areas is going to cost me $1125!!! He doesn't charge but this is the fee for the surgery room for 1 hour! I don't know what you look like but my biggest advice is to make sure your at your ideal weight before you do it. I feel like my results are not ideal bc I had so much fat removed which meant less stretchy skin to pull down. I have a small very vertical incision bc my skin wasn't loose enough to pull my old BB down into incision. The good news is Dr V puts ur incision very low! Lipo definitely caused more pain than the TT bc I got Exparel. Where are you having the Lipo done?
