WORTH IT
I had my last visit with my surgeon last week. He says everything looks great. My scar is flattening out nicely. No need to return unless I need some other work done! But I'm happy with my new look. I've started working out at the gym as wanting to maintain my figure. I'm now down 15 lbs from before the surgery, but thats mostly because i am doing more exercise and eating better. I appreciate my body so much more. Anyways just wanted to give an update. I've attached a couple more pics. Until next time, happy healing ladies.

12 Weeks post op

Still maintaining my weight and inches! So no more tape for me. I've started using scar away silicone gel on my scar. Let's see if there is any difference in a month or so. It does feel weird to not cover my scar after 3 months of the tape protection. But it also feels good to feel normal again. I've also started working on my abs as I think most of the swelling is gone down now, especially around my mons pubis. It looks so much better. It does feel a bit puffy though under my breasts, so I guess I just have to wait a little longer for the swelling to completely disappear! Posted some more pics. Until next time happy healing ladies.

10 Weeks, 10 lbs & 5 inches

10 weeks post op, 10lbs lighter and 5 inches smaller in the waist. I'm loving my new body. Its nice to try on and buy clothes that show off my actual style instead of wearing baggy clothes that try to cover up what I didn't want people to see. I went to see my surgeon today. He's happy with the way I'm progressing and even took my 2 month photos. I go back again at the 4 month mark to take my after pictures. He gave me the go ahead to start working out if I want to. I can also start scar therapy after the 3 month mark but need to decide on what to use. Apparently it has to have silicone in it for best results, so if anyone has any suggestions please comment below. I'm still a little swollen at the top of my abs and down the center of my stomach but still wearing my compress garment at night, so hopefully in the long run the swelling will finally go away. Anyways its getting late, until next time, happy healing ladies.
