I am for sure still having issues with swelling in my abdomen. Just wanted to share a photo comparison. The first is two days ago the second is today. I guess it truly takes 6 months to fully heal.

Yup. I look like that as well. I know that I will need a revision, but I'm still going to be patient, workout, and eat clean. My clothes do look better so I'm happy about that!

I was just wondering how many inches you've lost in abdominal? I just got sl at dr brenman 2 days ago. No results yet

Finally got some updated pics. I am swollen since I took my girls swimming all day so two days in a row not wearing my cg too much. But I am still not really happy with my results. Some days I feel better and some days I don't. But I do still swell a little. My new cg goes all the way to my ankles so my ankle swelling is finally gone.

Girl, i'm the same boat!! This 25th is my one months follow up, I will let her know that it need to redo on some area she missed. I'm so mad and frustrated now maybe because 12k I just wasted!!!

Oh I hear ya! I sometimes wish I just would have waited to get my tummy tuck and not wasted money. But a tummy tuck just wasn't possible. At least I am slightly smaller. I am able to wear cloths I haven't worn in forever but I guess I was just expecting much more of a difference. Was I expecting too much? I don't know but the sad thing is that I went into this not expecting perfection but some sort of change and a little bit of confidence and most days I don't have that.
I will say that I am happiest when I first wake up and take off my cg it's then and only then that I see a positive change.
I guess I'm gonna need a tummy tuck and thigh lift in the long run

I haven't even lost weight. I actually gained. Haven't stepped on the scale in 2 weeks tho. Im waiting til Friday but hopefully I've lost. This is just depressing.

Is it because of a diastasis

Thanks. Yea I know that I have about a 1 and 1/2 inch gap in my abdominal muscles. I knew going into this that I wasn't going to get perfection with my results because I do need a tummy tuck. However I may have another baby in the next few years so I am waiting to get my mommy makeover. I did the lipo just to get by in the mean time. I just thought I would be happier with my results. I might have been expecting too much considering the state of my skin.


I hope everything works out for you. And be patient. I have a feeling that you will continue to see progress. It may be slow but I'm sure you still have some healing to do
