Thank you soo much

Hi, did you travel to Miami? What did you bring with you? I've received an assortment of answers to this question. How are you healing?

Yesssss thats what i wanna hear..thanks soo much for positive comments

yes, I traveled from New York. you will need abdominal pads for the incisions. those need to be changed every day. you will need LOTS of towels and a shower curtain to lay on the mattress in the hotel. there is a LOT of drainage in the first two days especially. your faja will be literally soaked the first night. you will definitely need two fajas. i purchased mine right from dr. ortega's office the day after surgery. i bought another one that was the same size as the one they put on me after my surgery so i could put one on while washing the other one. you will want to stay somewhere that has a stove if you don't stay in a recovery house. i made the mistake of staying in a hotel where i couldn't cook and i couldn't eat a lot of the foods i was supposed to such as lean proteins and low sodium foods. i was very swollen because of this and when you swell, it is painful! i brought lots of loose t-shirts, sports bras, sweatpants, yoga pants, dresses, flip flops, mild antibacterial soap. if i can think of anything else, i will let you know. i am now 7 months post op. i healed great, no complications. the only problem is the lumpiness in my stomach and my results were not what i hoped. there is a slight improvement but i was hoping for a little more of a bubble. i may need to go back for a revision. I'm a little nervous because judging by what I've been reading, it's very difficult to correct uneven lipo.

Thank you sooo much.I appreciate all the kind words
