Home again...

Hello my real self friends. So sorry that I haven't posted an update since I got home. I seem to have picked up a cold/flu bug on the plane, and on top of running out of painkillers, I've been hit pretty strong, so I am just feeling incredibly weak and physically miserable. I think I may be feeling a little bit better today but am still nowhere near 100% Thankfully I picked up my dogs and went to the grocery store before this thing really took a hold of me, so I have my furry friends to keep me company and plenty of food and water. Trying to force myself to eat though my appetite is non-existent right now. No chicken noodle soup for me, I can't believe how much sodium that stuff has! Hope you all had a wonderful holiday and best wishes for a happy new year. I'll post an update with photos as soon as I'm feeling a little better :)

The Wellbox (Home Endermologie Machine)

I was planning on having Endermogie treatments done as it really helps to soften up the fibrous tissue and enhance the results, but I think I'm going to buy "The Wellbox" instead. It's a home endermologie machine that is made by the same people who invented the technology. At $1200 it is spendy, but I just spent that amount on lymphatic drainage massages, and would probably easily spend that much or more on endermologie treatments at a medi-spa. This way I'll have the machine at home and will be able to give myself unlimited treatments indefinitely. Anyways I'll be the guinea pig on this one. Going to order it now and will start treatments when I get home. I'll let you all know what I think.

Getting better all the time! Pictures 13 days post op.

My bruising is much better, drains are gone, and I am LOVING my shape... thought I'd snap a series of photos so you can see how things are looking.

Overall rating

I've always found it odd that RealSelf doesn't ask patients to rate doctors on the only thing that really matters... SURGICAL RESULTS. I think most of us can forgive any sin if the doctor does an exceptional job on our surgery. How often do you hear a patient say, "Well, he screwed up my surgery, but he responded promptly to my emails"... I'm guessing not very often. Most of us spend very little time with our surgeons, therefore, I am going to forgo the ridiculous real self rating system and give him a 5 out of 5 based on the only thing that I care about and the one thing they don't ask you to rate; results. Dr. Mendieta, you are a genius with a cannula! On a side note, I found Dr. Mendieta to be very personable and friendly :)
