Hello ladies, hesitated to write a review for a while now, finally gave in. I have spent a lot of time here... Im 5 weeks and 3 days and its really a long transformational journey with many ups and many downs. This site helped me so much. I knew what questions to ask and what to look for and what to expect.

I can't really say anything that hasnt been said. It hurts bad specially MR which I had (no lipo). Wearing a faja 24/7 takes some prayer and getting used to. Drains are worse than entire surgery :-/ .

So far, am very happy with my results. I learned a few lessons along the way reading all the amazing, inspiring and funny stories you guys shared. Lessons Learned: DO YOUR RESEARCH! Let the PS know - you know the ins and the outs. You need a strong support system. Most important lesson I learned - we are all different and our starting points vary so don't compare your results to other people!!. Give your body time to adjust and heal.

Thank you for your update ! I was really happy to see your results being that I am planning on getting my Tt with Dr. Yager as well. Love his work and he definitely did a great job on you. Please continue to post pics. This will really help me and others who are planning on surgery with him.

Hi there, So far am very happy with my results. At first it was really scary looking and I thought to myself WTF? I did not do lipo - but he said he would give me a nice waist and tighten me up - I had a dent (yes! a dent on the side of my BB) after surgery and I looked totally deformed. But ... it all smoothen out... so good luck to you will keep an eye out for you updates. Feel free to contact me ..

Im turning 39 in less than 2 weeks! - Im active - work out 5 days a week - and was nicely toned EXCEPT... yeah you guessed it...Finally said that's it - Im doing something for ME. I have 2 kids (18 & 12).

I started back at the gym taking it light but getting my body back to being active. It feels strange - not painful - but strange sensation that am going to break in half - can't explain it.

I still wear my faja 27/7 and now have gotten to love it! Its my friend and comforter ;-)

Scar treatment. I massage by tummy every day after I shower with Bio Oil - taking my time and close attention to my scar. I then put a silicone strip. I have been doing this since week 3 and I notice a lot of improvement. Scar is overall smoother, thinner.

Here are the updated pictures.

Fajas.... Well after sx I was wrapped like a taco in a CG (I see all you ladies loved that one NOT)... Then moved to the one the PS gave me - then I bought my own - which came down to the knees - then got too big... and now using this one....tank/corset in a small and I LOVE IT!!!!

Oh.. and wanted to show you guys the scar close up.

Congratulations and you look good! Great inspiration and what kind of silicone are you using on your scar????? It's almost time for me to start that part in my po and I want to be prepared, lol I already have bio oil and my ps has me using it already.

Im using Scar Away - I purchased from Amazon... a bit pricey - but good quality and I can see the difference already - I know it will take time - but am committed to making sure I care for the scar best I can.
