Hypertrophic scars, uneven lipo and excess skin... oh my!

I'm loooooong overdue for an update. Sorry I haven't responded to the many messages received. I've been frustrated and depressed with my results. I've had 2 scar (breast fold and vertical scar) revisions a dog ear removed and a revision Lipo. The lipo has left me with lumpiness and a banana roll, how can I wear shorts with this thing?! I've also had a few rounds of steroid injections on my hypertrophic scars which have now left me with unsightly purple spider veins. I just want to be done with all of this and have the body I wanted. After all this money spent I can't help but feel this wasn't worth it. I have another appointment in a couple of weeks and I will bring up the excess skin issue. My lower abdomen is also slowly bulging, I have no idea what it is but it just gets worse. I just want all this stress and obsessing to be over!

6.5 weeks - Sex and Gym

Hello ladies! So at I had my 6 week check up and the doctor said everything looks good so I can start to slowly resume normal activities. I was stoked! However, I over-did it an definitely felt the pain later! I went to the gym and did biceps, triceps and squats. Then later that afternoon my hubby and I did the deed. I felt pretty stiff and awkward, plus I don't want him to see a scars yet. Gym and sex went good but then later that night my mid section was hurting. I have been having pain near my belly button off and on and this activity intensified it :-/
Also my compression garment is pretty loose and I would like to buy a new one. Any recommendations??

4 Weeks and Emotional

So I am 4 weeks post op and feeling pretty good physically. But I'm at this stage where I'm starting to nit pick. Every time I look in the mirror I am upset about my vertical scar!! I feel like my bikini dreams and $20k are gone :-( My surprise vertical incision isn't healing as nice as I read it would and it's very noticeable in a bikini. It's at the forefront of my mind everyday. My husband feared that we would spend all this money and I would be disappointed. I haven't lead him to believe that he may be right just yet. I have a check up on Monday so we will see what he says. Ugh. It's such a let down.
