Day 2 Post Opp - breast lift with implants, 360 Lipo and skin removal on my stomach

On Tuesday (6/30) I went in for a mommy makeover I had a breast lift with implants, 360 Lipo and skin removal on my stomach. It wasn’t technically a mini tummy tuck because we didn’t tighten muscles. It wasn’t necessary per the doctors office since there wasn’t separation. We just removed the skin to tighten my lower belly.
The first night I was in a lot of pain. I was able to sleep through it. Overall each day is getting better. I think most of the pain is from the Lipo. I’m pretty bruised and swollen. I’m excited to see the final results but I really like the results so far!

I feel really good. Still dealing with some swelling and bruises. But overall, I’m surprised at my recovery time. I’m able to get along without much help now.

I’m excited to see what everything looks like once fully healed. I am thrilled with the shape of my waist! And the brief moments I get to sit without compression on, I love my stomach. It’s so smooth.

So, I feel amazing. I still have soreness in my back but OTC pain relievers have been okay. Doesn’t take it away completely but makes it tolerable. I’ve been getting lymphatic massages, which has really helped. All the steristrips are off and the incisions look good. I think they’ll heal well. Overall, I am so happy I made this choice for myself. I was comparing this to pictures when I was my lowest adult weight and my stomach now looks much flatter and I have curves that I didn’t then. I want to eat healthy and start getting back in shape. Before Covid, I had just finished my 54th marathon. It’s been hard to be motivated. But now I have a reason! It will only help my results.
