- 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.

Today I am 24 days post op. I feel better thank...
Today I am 24 days post op. I feel better thank God. I am less swollen and my bruises are gone!! I'm not gonna lie and say that I am perfectly ok. No, I am still sore, have tenderness in my lower abdomen and at night the skin of the treated areas becomes very sensitive. Last night I went to a dinner with my husband and I could not wait to get home and rest because My abdomen felt so sore..maybe it was because I was wearing pants for the first time I dont know... However,, I am starting to see my results and I like them!!
I got my new compression garment for the second stage this week, and it is VERY tight... The PA told me to wear it during the day and at night I could wear a spanx or similar. So I got one from Leonisa that is seamless and will use that at night. I am very concerned about the marks the previous garment left on my left side where the zipper is. The zipper would not keep straight and a bump formed on my left love handle eventhough I tried to avoid it by putting a maxi pad and later a folded face towel between the garment and my skin. I massage that area twice a day and since I bought 12 additional sessions of ultrasound and massage, the therapist lady also massages that area a lot... Hopefully it will help.
Another concern I have is that after reading other peoples experiences with fat transfer to buttocks, all of them have been recommended to sleep on their belly. However, my dr did not tell me anything and I slept on my back since the day of the surgery... Until I read that and starting to sleep on my belly (about 4 days ago... So 3 weeks sleeping on my back... ) I hope this wont have as a consequence that less fat stays permanently in my buttocks, because I like what I see now...
I have a trip planned to Europe in 2 weeks with my husband, my dr said it is ok... But I am kind of afraid because I dont feel completely fine... But God willing, I will feel ok by that time... :) I will let you know...

Oh, I just realized I never mentioned how much fat they took out... My dr told me he took out 2 liters of fat... And was able to tranfer to my butt 400 cc to each side ... Just for information... I like to read that info in other peoples reviews..

Hello... Its day number 11 after my procedure. I am feeling better, almost no pain except when bending over, etc... I do worry about the swelling... I am still VERY swollen and no signs of getting better.. But my dr said it is normal and that it should get better at about 4 weeks and on... My clothes still do not fit because of how swollen I am... However I can see a slightly hourglass figure and my belly is getting flat... So I am excited about how my final results will be...
I continue with the lymphatic drainage, still 2 more sessions to go...
I will update in one week... Hopefully with more good news...
