Going for 2nd round with Dr. Salama Feb 15, 2016
So a lot has happened since my first round back in 2012! I've gained about 20 pounds so I'm up to 185. My ass held up nicely and I get a lot of compliments BUT I need this waist snatched.
I was never happy with the rolls on my back and felt like Dr. Gabay wasn't aggressive enough the first time. So now with the weight gain, it's not cool.
I originally contacted Dr. Salama last year and was supposed to have the surgery but then I had doubts. I'm over it now, contacted Nancy and put 10% down.
Anyone else going around this time?

I had my second post op visit with Dr. Gabay today...
I had my second post op visit with Dr. Gabay today and he said even though I'm still swollen in certain areas, that I've healed really fast. He took out stitches he placed in my lower back (I didn't even know they were there until I started getting massages) and wants to see me in another month. He told me to continue the massages.
So far I've gotten 3 massages. The first 3 were great because I took percocets before the massage. The last one I recieved was tough. There's knots in certain areas and my skin feels raw and tingly. So all of that combined makes an uncomfortable massage but I grind through it because I know its the key to my healing.
BTW: if you are eating balanced meals and drinking lots of water, you will NOT need a laxative at all.

I had my first massage today and it felt great....
I had my first massage today and it felt great. After my massage the swelling went down a lot because I was able to put my garment back on with no struggle. My hha actually made me secure it on the 2nd hook (there's 4 total). I go for my second massage today. I haven't lost any volume but it's starting to soften up nicely.

Dr. Gabay is the best. He's very informative and straight to the point. His staff is thorough and professional. I highly recommend. I'm so glad I didn't have to travel to Miami.
