If I had to do again I would not have had the abdominal tightening. My abs were already really nice before, but because of the tightening it looks like one roll of abs, more like the appearance of a ear of corn down the center of my stomach. If your abs are ok, ladies, don't let then tie and tighten them together!!!!!!

I'm just shy of 8 weeks post op and I have quite a bit of swelling still. My stomach is SOLID and round. Almost pregnant belly like. My scar looks pretty good however. My lipo is not very impressive. I don't feel like it looks any different to be honest. I am ready for the swelling to go down. I will start working out again and hope for good results!
