Exactly 3 weeks post op
So I had my surgery!!!! Dr Boutte turned out to be one the nicest people you'd ever meet! When I walked in she greeted me with a hug and some humor! She makes you feel extremely comfortable alone with all of her nursing staff. After I had the surgery I was in HORRIBLE pain. I've been people up and at em a couple days after but I was down in pain for the first 2 week. I don't think I tolerate pain well at all. The only thing I didn't understand about my surgery is that I didn't get drains. After the first 2 days I stopped draining from the open incision site and the fluid just stayed collecting. I had to be drained during my follow up appointment which didn't last so I ended up going to the ER when I got back to my home state. Now I'm 3 weeks post op and I still have the fluid buildup in my peri area (not as much as before) and also at the top of my butt. I have an area where it looks like a burn on my stomach. I was told by one of dr boutte nurses that it happens over areas where stretch marks are present and due to lack of circulation, well the area isn't located over any of the minimal stretch marks I have sooooo I'm not sure where it came from but I was given nitrobid to put on it now it's healing. SO, through the tears and regrets and mini break down I can honestly say Dr. Boutte did a DAMN GOOD JOB on sculpting this body. My waist is TINY! My back is roll free! My butt (which was not done) looks AMAZING with such a small torso! My current measurements are 38,30,50!!!!!!! Belly and back of course are still swollen!!!!!

I saw your before and after pics and you look so amazing gurlll!!! You have the waist for hate lol. I'm very proud of your success. Now that you got yo' bod...don't forget about us on here who's wanting to get it together, lol. #donthurtem
Lol thank you! I will not forget lol. I'm going to be uploading more pics and another update from my 1 month follow up on May 4th.
I had drains but to me they hurt. They removed them
at my one week follow up. I didn't have much pain and was sure to take the meds on time. I have a few burn marks I didn't know you could use the nitro bid on them I have that also. I will try it. I had a burning sensation one day that had me in tears but read it's normal. She does amazing work. You look so good. I know you can't wait to go show those curves. These compression garments sure are old already but I feel weird without it.

I felt I should have had drains I still have fluid on my body. But I do know the feeling of not having and compression on. The garments are too incomfotable the boning in the tears my skin and rubs against my ribs I've been using ace wraps I need to find another type of garment.
I was directed to use a pea size amount of nitrobid 2x a day of 5 days on the effected areas
I purchased a full body one online since I also got bbl. fajacolombiana.com I think I was the website. What I also started doing was putting on a thin cami first tuck it inside the garment and pull the garment up. Then I use the ace wrap over that and a thin trainer. It's a lot but I don't wanna lose my
Contour. lol the tighter compression the more fluid you lose. I also use an ab board. I developed a small seroma but it left with the ab board. I also use that over the cami under garment. Directly on skin leaves marks. For me anyways.

I am going to Dr. Boutte at the end of the month...
I am going to Dr. Boutte at the end of the month to have smart lipo on my upper and lower abd, flanks, bra roll, and lower back. I havent had any contact with the Dr which I do feel is weird. I received a consult from Dr. Okoro a couple of weeks ago via skype and it was with him personally and his PA. After looking at my pictures and me via skype he told me that i was the perfect candidate for smart lipo. After talking with one of Dr Boutte reps i was told I "needed a tuck". My belly does not hang over,
I have no loose skin nor do I have stretch marks after 3 kids so the opinion of this rep was given zero attention. She told me that she was going to send me quotes for SL and a TT, I told her that she could keep her TT quote and just send me over the SL quote. Other than this experience I have had no issues with the reps but I will be requesting to meet with the Dr. before my procedure! I've seen amazing results from this Dr. and looking forward to see mine!

The rep also told me I needed a mini tuck when I was there on site and even though I only asked for a quote with upper abs, lower abs and flanks, my quote included the bra roll which I didn't ask for. I chose Dr. Boutte off the strength of the pictures and reviews alone. Her staff wasn't very helpful, at least not at the consultation. The day of my surgery was pleasant though. Good luck to you!
Yes it was so irritating. I'm 3 weeks post op and look freaking amazing no tummy tuck needed
Keep us posted!

I'm sorry I'm just now checking in!!! I had my surgery the day you commented! Did you have yours and how did it go!?!?
Yes I went. I haven't been on much. I soooo love my new body girl. She did her thing. I think we were in at the same time. I heard them say we have another case we will put in the other room. I was groggy already tho.
That day was a good day!!! How are you feeling?
