- 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.

So much better!
These pics are from last night:
Swelling went down a ton from
beachball two days ago! Last night I messed around on the elliptical for a few minutes, and there was no pain, so maybe today I'll try to do 15 minutes slowly with little resistance.
Boyfriend helped me shower and we rubbed Shea butter on my tummy. Still a little sensitive, yet numb (it's odd). Was gonna put on the silicone scar strips but we decided to wait. I'm not sure when to put those on? If anyone knows, i would be great full to hear. One incision is slightly bigger and weirder than the other and I don't like it
Washed my primary garment by hand and wore the binder all night with a clean pillowcase (lol) under it to keep the skin smooth , since the binder is rough and I definitely do NOT WANT that crap on my bare tender skin. It's uncomfortable and digs into my waist. Gonna go see if the main garment is dry by now
AND, this may be TMI, but we definitely had sex last night with no pain! 3 days after surgery! Was very very gentle, so just letting you ladies know that depending on the position (and if your mAn/girlfriend is careful) it CAN be done! But keep in mind my surgery was also kinda minor. And yes I was wearing my binder during
I still feel huge so I'm not gona post any more pics until at least a week out, and they will e better quality, SORRY GUYS! I figured something is better than nothing because pics and reviews really helped ME know what was up before I got this done, and I'd love to be just as helpful to at least one person out there

Pics from day 2
I looked like a beach ball. There's weird pattern dents from my stupid boyfriend getting the genius idea to cut the lipo foam all up. Wasted money now -__- We didn't use the foam after that
But as you see, very swollen and tender. That night I started wearing a binder over the compression garmet, as I felt it wasn't very tight. The foam helped the weird claw marks on my hips kind of, but I'm worried about them. I had a little stretch marks but not HORIZONTAL ones, you know?
We walked around the block and back last night, and today (day 3) I walked a little more. Hurt a teeny bit by the end of it. In general the pain is mostly just when I wake up (or over exert myself). But consider I'm taking like 1000mg of Tylenol every 5 or 6 hours
I know it's too early to tell if anything is going badly but still...Question-are those inflamed horizontal claw looking marks on my hips normal??
Going today with just the compression garment, and will shower tonight. I'll post pics of what's going on tomorrow

Day after
Sorry about the millions of typos and sillyness in the first review-was still feeling the effect of the nerves cocktail.
Anywho, bled through like 4 pads placed inside the garment by this morning, but surprisingly didn't mess up my bf bed or car coming back from surgery. When we changes the dressings today upon waking we applied arnica gel (stomach isn't bruised but HIPS are for some reason. Those were actually the spots where it hurt at times. I think the numbing fluid didn't cover those areas maybe). My hips are looking like they may bruise and there are a lot of lines that look like claw marks (from the laser or tube or whatever), raised and red but I suspect it's normal.
Only thing bothering me is that the incision sites seemed to close, and I'm wondering whether there's a thousand tons of fluid trapped in me now? Should I lay on my stomach? Poke em open? (Jokes). Doctors isn't open today so I can't call and ask.
We put lipo foam over majority of the areas because I figure the holes are healed anyway lol. And for the record I can already tell the area is flatter, dispute bruising
