This has been a very long journey. I still swell everyday and my internal stitches have busted through a few times in the last two months. I still haven’t been able to do any core work in the gym as it’s too uncomfortable (and painful at times).

How do you know they bust

You can actually see them. They bust right through the skin and sometimes causes [RS bleep] cyst like lumps to grow.

You look great and I’m not sure I see where you are swollen. But you know your body best. Has the doctor told you how long you would swell up for? Will the swelling stop?

Just found your review. Your results are fantastic! I’m sorry to hear that the swelling continues but I can’t even see it in the pics. Thank you for keeping the updates as you heal. It really helps those of us behind you in the process.

Dr. Lowenstein is truly an artist! He exceeded my expectations! He’s professional, kind, and attentive. I consulted with three other Plastic Surgeons and I am so happy that I decided to go with him. His technique is truly amazing. I’m ten weeks post op and my scar is flawless, my belly button looks very natural, and my contour is absolutely beautiful. Thank you Dr. Lowenstein!

Long journey

Ten weeks post op and still swollen like a potbelly pig! I’m praying that the swelling subsides soon as it is causing back pain. Not sure if it’s nerve related but my lower back is killing me by the end of the day. I’ve been working out a lot more (added weight training) and my abdomen has been super sore. I’ve not done any sit-ups yet but it feels like I’ve done 500!! However, my stamina is back in full swing and I can perform all of my cardio exercises without any issues. I’m thinking about wearing my compression during exercise to support my muscle repair. I feel like it’s less strenuous for some reason. Ok ladies...this is it. Until next time.
