9 Months Post Op

Hello lovelies,
I'm now 9 months post op & here are my results! I did gain 15 pounds. It's easier to gain weight after lipo because you can't really tell where your weight is going anymore. Before lipo, I could tell right away in my tummy & that would motivate me to hit the gym. Also, I got stretch marks. They're light & you can't really tell unless I point them out. Just something to be mindful of if you started out as flat as me lol
So how do I feel about my results? Well, honestly I'd like bigger & rounder & more projection but I did make the mistake of asking for a "natural looking" ass lol I feel I went from flat to average & some days I think I might start saving for implants lol But all in all, I'm happy & confident that I'm no longer a pancake ass lol

2 weeks in & I'm feeling much better! My arms seems to be healing the slowest. Probably because I haven't been wearing the most compressive sleeves because they drive me insane whenever I bend my elbow! I asked for another week off of work (making it three weeks) because although I'm a lot more mobile, I still don't have full range of motion just quite yet. Swelling has gone down tremendously, but still exists, revealing some large & hard tunnels from the cannula which I've read is expected & will soften up in due time. My shape is much better than last week. Butt is forming nicely so I can't complain :)

Funny thing is, although my hips don't appear very large in photos, I FEEL like I'm much more of a wider person now. Maybe because my hips were nonexistent beforehand. Not digging the "I'm a hefty [RS bleep]" feeling XD but aesthetically speaking, it makes my natural apple shape a helluva lot more proportionate.

1440 cc's on each side (buttocks & hips) for a total of 2880 cc's. Afifi used ALL my upper body fat for the fat transfer.

Thanks for sharing all these photos. My 24 yo daughter is apple shaped so I particularly like to see these types of results while I'm researching for her surgery. You look amazing after only 2 weeks! I hope you will be able to take the time to post some current photos since now your results should be "final". Thanks again for your posts!

Would you be willing to show current photos? If not, how has your body dealt with your exercise? Has it firmed up or lost its shape in any way? How are your arms doing?

I just posted some current photos for u, love. I honestly haven't been exercising too much. I'm glad to report that there is no residual pain from the surgery anymore so exercising is no problem. My butt hasn't changed shape since the 2 wk post op pics but it has gotten much softer. My arms honestly look the same to me, perhaps less than an inch diff in circumference altho I haven't measured. Hope I helped! :)

I'm still pretty swollen, especially in my lower back. I wish the results were more dramatic for all the pain I suffered & money I spent. I wish my waist was whittled in a lot more. She did add hips which I never had before. Right now my butt looks wide & flat. I want more projection. I'm hoping that 3 month fluffing out period that I've read so much about happens to me! I'd really like the fat to find its way to the bottom of my butt & bubble out lol

I'll keep updating with pics weekly & then monthly. Hopefully as time progresses, my swelling will go down & more of a form will take. As soon as I'm able, I'd like to resume my exercise & see how my physique will respond. I'm praying for favorable results
