Looking forward to hearing more.
Pray you are feeling great!

hi all:
My Recovery is going well.
Met with doctor for 1 week follow up. Bruises have gotten better. Using warm compresses and arnica to massage
I think my bruising may be all gone on another week; not bad!!
The sensitivity has reduced.
There is still inflammation so hope to see improvement on results working 3 months.
I do feel tightness and would day say only have 10-20% of numbness remaining on my legs.
I am able to stand for lengthy amounts of time and walk and shop no problem.
So while I can't yet say with certainly this is all worth it I have gotten through the worst discomfort and have a few inches less in me.
Merry Christmas everyone!

Thanks. Glad your recovery is going well and that you are happy with your results so far. Day 5 of recovery seems to be the peak of the discomfort... Glad you are over that hump!

Update? How was your experience with Athenix? I want the same procedure, but am worried about them being impersonal or undertrained compared to an independent plastic surgeon.

improvement today.
I hope yesterday was the peak of the discomfort and swelling.
Last night I felt like my legs were on fire and screaming to get out of my garment. Took a sleeping pill to knock me out... And even that took time.
Today wore my compression socks ($15) at the doctor office and I think they have made a difference!!
I am nowhere near as swollen not sensitive as yesterday.
I pray and trust that I got through the worse provided I continue to care for myself and thank goodness for those compression socks!
Best to all...

You look just like I did. It goes away after the 2nd week. I had problems sleeping too. Even Ambien did not help. I see great results in your body :) I think you will really be happy in about one week :)

Please post an update as soon as you can. I'm very interested in your case. I'm thinking about doing my legs... Hip to knees. Sure crazy busy for you w the holidays but I'd love to see your updated photos and read your commentary. Thanks!

You are over the hump and it seems like things are going well! Hang in there- there is still a lot of healing to happen but hopefully you are feeling better both physically and emotionally. I think you are looking great so far.
