How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- 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.

Final Update
Hi Ladies if you happen to check in...
I can’t believe it has been so long ago since my procedure.
I healed so well, I stayed swollen for about a year off and on. I gained from 135 preop to up to 148 at one point. I am now back down to 130 just from watching what I eat. I was a size 6-8 pants depending on style and now those fall off of me. I can wear as small as a size 2 depending on style now. Of course if I gain weight again that will change.
I will say that sometime in the future I want to get lipo completed for my love handles and then my total back area from my armpits down. I hold fat in my torso.
I would recommend this to anyone that wants to rid themselves of loose skin after pregnancy. However it is not a weight loss procedure by any means.
I hope you enjoy my final pics and maybe I can post a lipo set in the future.

Compression Garment
Adding a pic of the garment I wore. It is marena and I found this one on ebay for much less than retail when I found one that was suggest a price. At my measurements pre sx I was an XL and then had to buy a L for it to be tight enough. My measurements were W 36, H37, under bra 34
3 Month Update
I can't believe it's been 3 months....
I had my post appt and the PS was very happy with my results. So am I :)
I just tried stopping the garment during the day since I am pretty sure the swelling is mostly gone. I really had a love/hate relationship with that thing. My abs are still a little sore, like I did a hard ab workout the day before but nothing painful. I still get some muscle spasms near my scar. I still can't stretch out in the mornings or sleep on my stomach from tight ab muscles. I have most of my feeling back in my TT incision but am numb between my belly button and my incision. My scar looks great but is still a dark red but I'm not worried about that, it will fade.
My nipples are ever so slightly not even which doesn't bother me but the PS wants to do a revision. Where the scar ended at the bottom, it formed a pucker on both sides that I would like to have fixed but you can't see it unless you look under my boobs. LOL
I am so happy with my flat tummy and lifted breasts.
I lost 1" from the lipo under my armpits and 3" from my waist so far. I am hoping to lose more now that I am starting to exercise and recover from the holidays with my diet.
Future wish list: get my back fat fixed and have my flanks lipo'd and the loose skin removed there. I have to save money to get that worked on though.
