Finally an American review of Dr. Frank LaMadrid!

Here is a video of how I look in jeans instead of just underwear. I love it!

I am now 3 months post-op. I can still see and feel swelling. I am doing lymphatic massages 1-2 times per week, which helps. My friend who is about 3 months ahead of me in terms of recovery says that she is waking up super defined, so hopefully once I get to 6 months everything is perfect! I no longer wear the faja, although it does help with controlling swelling. For me, I hate wearing it. I took it off after about 8-10 weeks. I am back consistently in the gym because it no longer hurts to work out, so hopefully my next progress pics will begin to show more muscle definition. A lasting side effect I have noticed is that I am not as flexible, and sometimes when I twist too far it hurts. I think this will go away with time because it seems to be getting easier week-by-week.

Here are some updated before and afters.
I’m finally two months post-op, so I have started light weight training 3-4 days a week as I ease back into a routine. I admit my diet has not been the cleanest, so I need to work on that. I am doing lymphatic massages twice a week (Monday/Thursday or Tuesday/Friday).
