3 days post op

WORTH IT$4,600
Im ready to rip the chin garment off. Hands down the most annoying/difficult part. It’s giving me headaches and a stiff neck. I’m suppose to wear it without removing for 4-5 days. Monday can not come sooner. I got my first massage yesterday and was sooo dead afterwards I knocked out at 8pm. My next massage is on Tuesday.

Wowww that assss!! Wishing you a speedy recovery! I know he doesn't recommend massages but this being your 2nd round would you recommend it? And how soon?
I finally got to switch to the faja style chin wrap and omg soo much more comfortable now! And he didn’t tell me he doesn’t recommend massages this time.. he actually told me to self massage. However I do believe getting lymphatic massages from someone licensed is necessary. I can’t imagine how uncomfortable recovering dealing with all that fluid build up/swelling would be without it. Especially since he stitches the incisions closed all that fluid needs help getting flushed out and those massage stimulate your lymphatic system. The day of my massage and the day after I feel so much relief. I started both times two days post op and recommend going twice a week for a total of 10-12 massages.
Thank you for that information I believe in massages but when he said not necessary but optional i got confused. That's exactly what imma do found a good spot with great prices and again wishing you well you look amazing
How are you feeling now that you're a month post op? I can't imagine getting a round 2! I'm 2 weeks post op from lipo 360 and bbl and I did feel like I was hit by a truck! I had so much regret at first and questioned why I did this to myself! Now that I can get up with a lot less pain in my abs and the fact that my butt and hips are going down a bit (seemed HUGE to me at first) I'm getting happier each day. Why did you have to wear that wrap around your face? Are you happier with your round 2 results?
I had to wear the chin wrap/garment because I got chin lipo done this time around. Thankfully for me i didn’t experience much pain… I don’t think I would have been able to do this twice if that was the case lol. I definitely wanted the second round as I wanted more hips and projection. I am having minor issues with my left buttcheek appearance wise (I have an indention) and a lot of swelling this time around but Dr. Rhee had been assuring me it will most likely fix itself with time as my body is still healing but also said if it does not he will inject me with a steroid to help speed things along. I’ve been waiting to make an update until it is resolved because I did not want to make it seem like I am super unhappy with my results.
How you feeling now? Did he perform bbl at hospital or at his office? Can you please share updated pictures
hi do you have any updated pics and are you still liking your results? im booked with in in a few months
Im sorry if im bothering but i am interested in chin lipo and a second round of just lipo i feel my tummy could've been flatter but im scared after your last comment , I hope all is well with your recovery.
My second round of lipo i feel like wasn’t as dramatic as my first? But I think that’s bc i need a tummy tuck (which I knew but was avoiding. I have two kids so I have extra skin and muscle separation. Regarding my butt I just got a second round of steroid injections and the first round of shots definitely helped with the “indention” dr Rhee explained explained its actually scar tissue and that the shots help loosen it. Its only visible now when I’m naked and/or in a squatting position.

Morning of day 1 post op

Post op day 1! I slept literally alllll day.....well atleast from what I remember. That sedative is nooo joke! I’ll find out once my hubby wakes up though if I was actaully asleep or if I was just too high to remember anything. It’s is 6:45 am and so far I feel ok, no pain. My bedroom is upstairs so I have been going up and down the stairs all night refilling my water bottle (I have one of this water coolers machines) Man am I soooo thirsty though! My face is so swollen it’s pretty funny. I’ll take a photo of my body when I get my lymphatic massage on Friday!
