Im 2 Weeks and 3 Days out on Lipotuck - Sugarland, TX

ORIGINAL POST

I got a procedure called lipotuck done in...

WORTH IT$11,500

I got a procedure called lipotuck done in Sugarland, TX. I love it so far, so good. Im still swollen, but Id be happy even if I didnt get smaller. Being so flat is wonderful. He said Im very swollen still.

I didnt know that for the first week or so that Id be walking hunched over. Its been interesting. It did make my lower back hurt a lil. I also had anxiety attacks when my garment was off for the first few times after surgery. I already suffer from anxiety but hadnt had a prob with it for a while until I saw my cut. I never realized I was the type to freak out on stuff like that. I am cut to the middle of each butt cheek.. I got a lil bit of a lift from the hip area since I had sagging skin there too. He also gave me aggressive lipo on back hips and flanks.

I love his staff and him! They are great!

It was very painful on day 2,3,4 and I was a little better by day 5. Day 1 I was drugged up so I was super on day 1. I didnt sleep on my sides at all for the first 2 wks and still have trouble doing so. Im not used to it... its weird without all my hip cushion. Days 5-8 were still a little painful but by day 9 I was ready to go go go. I do have to admit being so dependent on ppl was hard for me. My house was a mess and I hated not being able to clean it! Even tho my body was doing a little better I still could not clean as I wanted to but by day 9 you will feel sooo much better.

Im 2wks 3 day out and Im still in my garment and a lil swollen but I can drive and do little things around the house. You will get tired quicker than usual so take breaks and dont expect to do it all at once. Im getting smaller and smaller but I hear it takes month to see the final result. Keep those binders on!! Yay! Im almost there!! pic after 6 weeks out

It can take even more than a month to see final results. Many doctors say to allow two or three months. Thanks for posting your experience here. Looking forward to seeing your photos!

I am having the LipoTuck with Dr. Ahmadi on 8/17. Do you have pics yet you can share? Just curious how his work looks. Are you still happy with the results?

Hi, I also had lipotuck done with Dr. Amahdi in Sugarland. I'm 3wks 2 days post surgery....It has been a little rough I must admit. Swelling has gone down but I find if I stand too much through out the day my stomach will become hard and hurt. I wonder if this is normal???

Hi Living Proof, I had my LipoTuck on 8/17 and I can attest that it hurts for some time. I think the most painful part was the liposuction part. I am still sore to the touch in those areas and you are correct, if you push yourself and try to do too much you will really pay with the swelling later in the day. For me, this lasted a good 6-8 weeks....you will start to think that it will never go away, but it does in time. You have gone through major surgery, so take it easy for 6 wks at least and be sure to wear the binder he gave you, this helps to reduce the swelling.

I am still really sore to the touch & numb this far out and I know that it can take 6 months to a year for all of the soreness, numbness and swelling to subside completely. I knew this going in and will remain patient and allow my body to heal on its own schedule. We just need to stay calm and relax.

Can anyone who had lipotuck by Dr Ahmadi tell me how long did the procedure take, was it done under sedation, and how was his surgical facility
