6 weeks
WORTH IT$4,300
Finally finally moving like my old self. I'm sleeping in my bed on both sides so getting a good night rest. I'm walking pretty normal, belly button has dried up and the drain hole is drying as well. 6 weeks feels like the beginning of feeling like a normal person. Still sore on my side and on my back from the lipo. My lower back lipo swelling has gone down enough to show me what my butt looks like now. Loving my results. Dr. Mejia really knows what he's doing. Especially if you want natural looking results that no one will question. My scar looks amazing I can tell at a year PO it's gonna be hard to make it out. I'm still swollen in the front but its going down gradually. All in all 6 weeks feels amazing! Any questions drop a comment or send a PM

Swell Hell!
Ugh the swelling! Nothing prepares you for the swelling. I'm over this recovery it's a little under 5 weeks and I'm so over it. Still sleeping on the couch because the bed is uncomfortable. Still not standing all the way straight and the swelling is still annoying. Anyway rant done.

You look great! Are you wearing the same size pants as before or has that changed? I'm almost 3 weeks post op but my tummy was so I big I just always wore my old maternity pants. No idea what size I am now.

Well those were pants I had before but because they had stretch they fit ok... now that I'm almost 8 weeks post op some of my pants are loose in the morning but by the end of the day with the swelling they're back to fitting again

Week 4: Scar
Hi ladies here are pics of my scar at week 4. Today the tape came off and I no longer have to wear it. I still have quite a bit of swelling which are also making my stretch marks look more aggressive. So over the swelling!! I had a lot of stretch marks prior to surgery so I knew I would have some after. Especially the large cluster/scar that occurred during pregnancy where my belly button was pierced. The drain site has finally stopped draining now just waiting for this belly button to heal it's so annoying. I love my scar I can literally wear any type of underwear. Dr. Mejia said to start the scaraway gel twice a day. If you have any questions feel free to ask.
