5 Weeks Post Op
Feeling much better! Almost all of the bruising is gone. I still have a little on my left flank but otherwise it's all gone. I am still swollen. The backs of my arms are especially swollen as well as my lower back where I had my drain. My back and the backs of my arms are still tender to the touch but all these things are minor. Dr. Repta said I will continue to get smaller and the swelling will continue to subside. In pants I'm wearing a 6/8 or a size medium. In tops I'm wearing a medium or large (I'm a wear a 38DDD bra, so it's not likely I will get in to a size small top.) I am very happy with my results so far!
Day 9.....
My thighs, calves, and hips are still incredibly swollen! I feel like I'm walking like a cowboy at times and at the end of the day my feet are huge. I am however seeing major progress on my abdomen, flanks, and back fat! I had my drain removed today, so I have some tenderness and swelling across my lower back, but the change is tremendous! My arms are incredibly bruised and very tender, the most tender parts of all, but I am noticing a difference in circumference which is very exciting!! I finally showered for the first time since surgery day and it was glorious! I would definitely recommend ordering a second or third set of compression garments. I ordered another set today in a smaller size so I always have a clean set. I purchased mine through the Marena Group at https://marenagroup.com. I'm not thrilled about wearing a full girdle to my ankle and a full vest in the summer in Arizona, but I know the end results will be well worth it!
Post op day 4
Still really swollen. I had to put compression socks on because my ankles and feet were terribly swollen but the swelling has gone down. I'm down to only 3 pain relievers all day and mostly just sore where my drain is. My drain output is significantly less today too. I'm starting to see a lot of bruising on my feet but no more leaking from my puncture wounds.
Provider Review
I truly cannot say enough great things about Dr. Repta. I ever feel rushed when I'm talking with him or asking questions. He wants to make sure his patients are happy and understand the process. I love his attention to detail and his results have exceeded my expectations. I am beyond thankful and grateful for Dr. Repta, he has truly changed my life!
