1.5 Month Post Surgery
It’s been a month and a half since I’ve gotten 360 lipo and arm lipo done by Dr. Rhee, and I’m happy to say that I’m pretty satisfied with my results. I’m not overweight but I’ve had some excess fat and skin that I couldn’t get rid of after having my child 6 years ago. The consultation and surgery day went smoothly and everyone at Dr. Rhee’s office was so sweet and made me feel so comfortable every step of the way.
The recovery process is not easy, but I mentally prepared myself for the struggle. The first couple days you will 100% need someone to help you with everything, and every little thing you do will be truly uncomfortable. You get painkillers, and I didn’t have to use all of them, but it was just little things such as not being able to bend at the waist, everything being swollen, not being able to raise your arms above your head, having to wear the compression garments, and not being able to move when you sleep that made the recovery process feel very long. I recommend those with babies or toddlers to wait until your children have more independence to undergo this surgery because the first 2 weeks will be very rough, and it’s only at the one month mark where you’ll begin to see the light at the end of the tunnel.
Now that it’s been 1.5 months, I’m feeling so much better and can really start to appreciate the results of the surgery. I’m particularly loving the lipo 360 results- Dr. Rhee did an amazing job of making my waist and stomach look amazing. Everything looks smooth and even, and the incision points are all healed. There is also a visible reduction in size in my upper arms, which used to be such a complex for me when I wore anything sleeveless. I didn’t know beforehand, but arm lipo takes a very long time to heal and I’m still massaging them daily to make sure they don’t leave any bumps or lines. I’m also still wearing all the compression garments, which Dr. Rhee said should be worn for 3 months, and I can’t wait until 3 months is over because it’s not easy to wear the tight garments 24/7 under your clothes. BUT, my body does feel better when I wear the garments and I feel very sore and achey if I keep the garments off for more than an hour, especially if I’m sitting or lying down.
It’s a long healing process, but I would not want to do it with anyone besides Dr. Rhee and his staff. I’m satisfied with my results so far and can’t wait to see the final results!
