I had my upper and lower abs as well as love handles done on May 1st, I am on day 4 and in still a lot of pain, is this normal? I am able to walk around hunched over but getting up and down out of a chair or bed is incredibly painful. (and very slow) I feel like I have been hit by a train and I have a high tolerance for pain. When will I start to feel normal? I am keeping up on my tylenol and take a pain pill at night so I can at least sleep a few hours. I thought I would bounce right back and am feeling discouraged.

I had 3 c sections and although I was able to loose most of the weight after each baby, my belly had a bulge and only got worse after I hit 42. I was told my abdominal muscles were very weak. Looking forward to feeling good about myself again

It's normal! My procedure was may 3, tumescent lipo on abs, flanks and low back. I'm in the same boat! Moving from sitting to standing and vice versa is difficult right now, especially with all the swelling

I had hips/waist/flanks on 4/10-i was supposed to do lower abdomen too and changed my mind. I don't know how anyone does it together! the only source of movement I had was my stomach muscles-trying not to move my back or sides a lot.-I feel so bad for you reading this! on the flip side-be happy you got it all over with! I am having my abdomen on 5/15-my tummy looked so big now that everything else is trimmed - so I have to start all over again. my hips and flanks are very sore STILL-it depends on how aggressive your doctor was. make sure your compression garment is tight/very snug and keep it on 24 hours, it will help with swelling ALOT! once the swelling sets in, it is really hard to get it down again. my doctor requires 2 weeks but I am still wearing mine in the day to help with discomfort. congrats on your journey! you are over the worst part, I promise it gets more manageable each day!

Who's your doctor? I am planning to fly down to San Diego to get tumescent lipo also.
