Chronology of the Recovery from Smart Lipo and Celluaze - Keeping it Real!

It has now been 8 weeks since I had my procedure. I have been on two vacations and am scheduled for another one within the next 10 days. Due to this, I have had minor weight gain but I must say that my body shape is beginning to look different in a good way. I still feel lots of numbness in the abdominal area and the back of the thighs from the cellulaze, which means there is still swelling but I am excited to begin to see some real results. I am checking off the "Worth It" button for the first time!! :o)

It has now been four weeks, I started to get the massages last week. Since the recovery process has been slow for me, I was nervous and a bit skeptical about he massages. However, I actually felt better afterwards. I began to use the treadmill again and will continue to incorporate other exercises as well. I still have bruising around my lower back. My body is beginning to show an improvement. There is still numbness and swelling mostly n the lower abdomen area.

It has been 3 weeks since my procedure. The swelling subsided significantly but I am still pretty swollen in the lower abs. The lower back area is still bruised and I still feel a tremendous amount of tenderness and soreness around the midsection. I am still wearing a Spanx garment 24 hours. It has been a slow recovery process.

So what does my body look like? At this point, it is still hard to tell what the final results will look like. My body appears thinner in some places but it looks different on different days. I can only hope for a positive result as time passes. The thighs where the cellulaze was done still shows signs of cellulite. I will have to continue waiting for results.
