28, Tumescent Lipo of Upper/Lower Abdomen and Flanks

Just a quick u update - not as sore anymore, no bruises and stomach is looking much better. Honestly, I wore the ab binder for maybe a week straight but it bothered me so much that I wear it sparingly. I know it helps with swelling but I'm in no rush and I expect my results to be more visible in 3 months. Loving what I see so far :)

Finally, its been an entire week... The hardest adjustment is the binder I'm in. It scrunches up almost every time I move which causes it to poke me in my sides. I keep adjusting it, but I'm scared that could impact my results (which I'll talk with my doc about at me post-op appointment on Monday). The swelling is down some and I only have a few bruises on my sides. Still, overall, the pain from the procedure isn't bad. I've stopped taking the meds, but I'll take Tylenol if needed. I'm back at work and actually feel better moving around versus doing little stuff around the house. I was soooo bored.

I'll post another pic once I hit the 2 week mark.

I recommend Dr. Weiss to everyone in the Jacksonville and surrounding areas!! ..... On another note... the recovery is not a joke! Lol well the pain wasn't half as bad as I expected but it was hard to sleep comfortably in the compression garment. I never sleep on my back so I could barely sleep the last few nights. The pain from the upper/lower abs is not too bad and I don't have much pain in my flanks anymore. Overall, I'm happy I went through with the procedure and I'm ready for the swelling to go down. I'll post more pics as I go along.
