It's been 2 years n the trauma from this surgery still hunts me... I tried to file a suit against this practice but it was too late.... never go to a doctor just bc he's cheaper...u will get cheap results....
I have another surgery booked for next month with a good doctor who has his resume to prove it. So stay tuned for my transformation. ... and never compromise for money .

Had first post op visit today with doctor. I am so uncomfortable right now bc of all the lumps. .. it feels like hard playdoh spread along my abs.. and I don't like the feel of it. .. doctor says it's skin swelling n will go down in next couple weeks. ... I don't much curves in fact I feel fatter bc of garment I have to wear.... I am glad my bruises are gone. ... only small patches left. .. the pics re from few days ago. .. before lumpiness began. .. now most bruises are gone altho the drainage locations still sting n has scabs... will post pics in few days or tomo whenever I have time. ...

Day 4

Day number 4 post op... I am feeling discouraged... I woke up with big lump right under my ribcage and I am literally Yellow purple and blue all over.... looks like I got beat up really badly.... not feeling attractive or skinnier... feel hideous and ugly... Arnica cream doesn't seem to be helping either.... I want all the bruises to go away then at least I can bare it.... I cried in the bathroom after I looked at myself.... I am hoping I will get better soon.... this is not what I was expecting...

When do you go back to your dr? It's only day 4, once the swelling and bruises subside I'm sure you will feel better. I think you're going to look great! Please continue to post pictures. I'm planning on doing this next month and your post has been very helpful and detailed as to what I can expect pre/post.Thank you.

I am at day 8 post op and the bruises are starting to fade and move down south (to put it a nice way) I had my upper and lower abs done. Still very swollen also. I too hope it gets better. Feel like I'm gaining weight because I have not been able to go to the gym

You are going to look fabulous darling! From the pics on here the girls just keep shrinking up to 2 years. I think you are in the swelling stage due to the trauma.
Congrats!
