Swell Hell

I have been really swollen the last couple days. Ugh. Hopefully it goes away soon. I knot ebbs and flows but I'm ready for it to flow away bight now! Lol

Updated Pics

Here are my 6 week pictures. I started my scar therapy 10 days ago. It's a 60 day treatment.

6 week PO

Wow! It has been 6 weeks since I had my tummy tuck and breast lift. It has gone pretty smoothly really. A few weeks in I did get fat necrosis oozing from one of my drain sites. I was freaking out thinking the worst. It was gross. Looked like butter oozing out that wouldn't stop. I was happy to know that it is normal and it only lasted about a week.

All of my incisions are closed and healing well. I started scar therapy on my tummy. I decided to wait on my breasts to see how this looks as the therapy I am doing is expensive.

I have noticed the last probably week that my swelling isn't as bad but it comes and goes. I have really been feeling good.

I started working out last week. Running the first few days and now doing modified HIIT workouts as well. I can now start lifting higher weights but can't do core work for another 2 weeks.

I think if I could any advice, and maybe I have already said this, but stay active. I feel much better when I am moving than when I just sit for a long time. I get tight when I sit. The other thing I think I have realized is I don't like to wear too tight of compression garments. They seem to make my upper abs hurt more.

When I take my scar patches off I will update my pictures.

Overall rating

Dr. Steele did my tummy tuck with lipo of the flanks and breast lift. He was a GREAT surgeon. He took time to talk to me about what he would recommend and answer any questions my husband and I had. He was knowledgeable, patient, and talented. I would recommend him to anyone!
