6 Weeks Post Op

WORTH IT$4,100
Just had my final massage...not really much change, except I don't have as many lumps. I had a follow up with my doctor and she said everything is going great. I thought I was developing seroma last werk, but Dr. Ortega's post op department contacted me and had me send in photos and said I wasn't, just normal lumps and swelling that will go away over time, so I was glad of that. Suggested that I purchase a massage bar and I found one at Walmart for $10 by Gold's Gym. It works wonders!! Even my massage therapist said she could see a noticeable difference in the lump areas, which are mainly my sides. Every now and again I'll get a pain surge, but other than that, it's pretty much gone. I'll be so happy when I can stop wearing this garment and foam and taking these pills. 6 more weeks to go ???

Thanks for sharing your journey. I am tentatively scheduled for lipo in May. I want to get a wnd opinion but I don't want to lose this date. You look great. How soon were you able to resume normal activities?
Thank you
Awesome results.
Thank you! I looked at your profile, you look amazing as well! I'm planning to go back and have a tt later this year!
That's awesome. Thank you doll. I know it's a great feeling the transformation. Having the lipo first was smart to do.
