Revision done today
Visited my PS office this morning, took Xanax and Percocet one hour before procedure. Was also given some local anesthesia during the procedure. Felt some pain and pressure during procedure but nothing severe. I was reopened around 6 inches along old incision, PS removed fat which surprised him since lipo was done 3 months ago and restitched my lower abdominal muscles. I am not sure if there was something wrong with the muscles and plan on asking when i go for my follow up on Monday (medication had me foggy), one drain was placed, and I was "glued" back together. At present wearing abdominal binder and taking one Percocet every four hours. I would say I feel more burning than pain but it is not bad at all. Drain is draining bloody. Hopefully will post some picutres tomorrow. Relaxing tonight.
Revision scheduled
Pooch over incision never improved, always looked like I had "man parts" when I tucked my shirt in, PS also agreed and I had lipo of the lower abdomen and mons in September, 2014. When I went back for my follow up neither my PS or I was completely satisfied with the results so he booked me for a revision which will be done 1/17/15, all of which is being done for free. My PS is supportive. Again this pooch may not seem bad to others but I went into the initial surgery with a flat stomach, just had extra skin. Will update after my surgery. I wish I had taken pictures before lipo as well but I did not so you could see the improvement but not a total fix.
Post op day 17
This past two and a half weeks has flown by. Swelling is finally going down, I am using Arnica gel 3 times a day with a abdominal binder at present. Really have cut my activity down to nothing except absolutely necessary things. Maybe the swelling was because I was doing to much? Anyway feel 100% better which does not help because I feel great and want to return to my normal life but my body in told me I was not ready yet by swelling like a tick. My incision is healing well, I am massaging it twice a day. My PS instructed me to start using silicone patches on week three. I have one complaint, I don't love my belly button, BUT I do understand if my PS attempted to correct it I would have had a vertical scar which I am sure I would have hated more...overall love it and can not wait to be able to wear a two piece bathing suit this summer....:)
