How it works
  • Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
  • This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
  • Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
  • Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.

If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Post Op - 11 weeks

Saw my PS 2 days ago.
Everything is healing nicely.
Front incision is still draining a tad - caused by hair follicles and/or inner stitches.
Swimming not until next year :(
I cancelled my upper body lift on January 26. Mentally, I just don't want to do that surgery yet. I am thinking late February or March.

10+ weeks ...

Bending over all day doing yard work was NOT a good idea.
I should have stopped when my front incision starting hurting.
But, NO - I wanted to get the work done. dumb-dumb-dumb
I wore a torso shaper and binder ... still caused issues with front incision - It is draining again in 5 places. Not a lot of draining - just enough to keep me from my PS telling me this Tuesday (at appt) that I still can't swim yet :(

Post Op - 10 Weeks

Boy what a difference a week makes :)
I can sit at my desk for hours and my legs don't fill with fluids :)
I can do yard work and clean the house without additional swelling - as long as I am wearing compression garment(s) :)

I put new 2" tape on everyday after my shower with silagen lotion on scar. I am still putting gauze on open sores on left side and front. The areas are getting much better. But not healed enough to swim yet. It's a comin' - I can smell the chlorine :)
