So still have a roll and am still sore and swollen to my flanks.
Sorry this is so short I will update more soon. Still not heard about my complaint from Mya. Looks like I'll be having my wedding blessing without the vaser to bra line. So annoyed it's partly why I had this all done in the first place.

Hi lovey, I've just had my revision with him this last Monday. I'm putting in a formal complaint about him as he was so rude and nasty to me when I asked him to clarify what I was having done. He rushes and doesn't explain things properly and ended up shouting at me. It was horrible but I went ahead as needed the revision done.
Before you start to worry he did do a good job on my tummy so don't worry about that. He just has no respect or care for his clients I find but he may be different with you.
It was def the best decision I made and I'm so much more confident now.
Are you staying in a hotel following your op? X

Hey chick, gosh so sorry its ended up as a formal complaint and that he shouted at you, thats just plain wrong!! Given that you've just dropped several thousand £s you should defo expect much better customer service from both yr PC and Mr M!! I feel for you there hun and I hope MYA resolve your complaint to your satisfaction. However, im very relieved you're happy with the result. I have to admit my PC Gabrielle has been brilliant and I met Mr M last week. He seemed a bit abrupt but I'm not fussed about his bedside manner, as long as he does a good job then I'll be more than happy and his reviews look good. I was thinking of travelling by train early AM but I have to call at the end of the month to confirm a time why, do you recommend staying the night before in a hotel?

It was really horrible as I just wanted to make sure he was doing what we discussed. Alarm bells went when he came in and says oh you're having another procedure too. I was like err we been over this in my consultations. Thing is with him everything is rushed and he doesn't spend time with clients. He left my belly button piercing still showing last time and it looked so stupid right down by my last bits after the TT. So I had to have that corrected too. Although he was throughly unpleasant to me his work is good so at the end of the day that's all that counts so don't worry I'm so happy I had mine.
As for the hotel if you don't need to then don't and save your money. Are you being picked up after? Bet you're so excited? X

Such a shame its been such a journey for you, thank goodness you're happy with your result. I hope you're feeling a bit better about things. How you feeling now 7 month's down the line, are you experiencing any soreness, numbness, pain? Also, how soon did you manage to walk straight? Ive seen on the forum that it takes a couple of weeks to straighten up was this the same as you? To be honest T im brickin it (looollll)!!!! but Im just looking forward to a flat tummy for the first time in 25 years, am excited and a bit petrified at the same time! Yes I am thinking of travelling down early morning so will be booking train soon.

Odour!

Taitai2003
I started to notice a little bit of a smell coming from my wound a few days ago.
It's pretty common from what I've read so I tried not to get paranoid about it.
I was the only one who could smell it.
I took myself off to the GP anyway who gave me anti biotics anyway and this morning my dressings got changed.
There are some pink bits and a little oozing as expected but the nurse said it looked fine and wasn't anything to worry about.
I must say I'm pleased. I'm going to email them to the clinic anyway.
Hubby said I should be really pleased with the work the surgeon has done.
Sending positive vibes my friends xx

First post op appointment

Taitai2003
Had my dressings taken off. Felt a little like a wax but the area is still so numb I can hardly feel anything.
I have a slight pink area that's weeping but the nurse said it should be ok.
I'm not massively delighted with the outcome as of yet. I look like I have a pooch still and have a roll when I sit down.
I thinking I will probably end up going for more lipo when I can.
As for the compression garment the surgeon told me to not wear, the nurse said I have to wear it.
I tried but it's too tight and I'm allergic to the nickel in the fasteners. For the moment I've got spandex knickers on and my binder and I'll see what they suggest next.
You can see in the pics that I'm quite lumpy but that's to be expected only 10 days post op.
