Its been four months since I had smartlipo. I lost...
Its been four months since I had smartlipo. I lost inches and weight but gained some loose skin. I don't swell much anymore, still wear CG at night and the infamous Squeem cincher.
Overall I feel good and looked good ( with my clothes on)
I had a lymphatic massage yesterday and my MT said I was looking good and no lumps and no swelling that she could see nor feel. She recommended to continue giving myself massages and to buy any type of firming cream to see if that helps. I will see my PS on my six month anniversary, sometime first week of April, for her to tell me what up!?lol. From the beginning she said I didn't need TT, we will see what she has to say when she sees me. I will upload a couple of pics sometime this week for you guys to give me your humble opinion. Just a friendly reminder that the weight loss came because I DO watch what I eat and exercise.
If you are ahead of me, you kno what I am going thru right know, and if you are behind me, prepare yourself for a rollercoaster of emotions and vest yourself with lots of PATIENCE.
Peace.

I just added three pics at my 6 week post op. Overall I feel fine, just that I don't know if its fat of if I am swollen, specially on front pic.
I am hoping its swellness because in the morning I am fine, but at end of day... swollen...again...
I am having second Viora Treatment tomorrow. I will ask Doctor for her opinion. I hope she doesn't say what I read here all the time " Doctor said I looked Fab" I am 10 weeks post op. Will post pics at the 12 week post op mark.

On the last 3 pics you can really see the difference especially the side view one. On the last pic you can see how your waist has gotten so define...definately can see the hour glass shape. You can see the muscle on the top of your
abdomen. You still look like it has swelling on the bottom of the abdomen. Overall its looking great!

Hi Daisy
I had lipo 6 years ago had 4500CC removed under local. Never again! He missed some parts as it was too painful so I am doing it again Jan 15. Upper abs and back.
The biggest advice is the garment and not too much exercise. I know we are so excited to keep the fat off and start working out too soon. I really did not do toomuch for 4 months and wore a tight CG for 6 months. For the part he did it really worked. At night after few months I took the garment off but during the day I always wore it. Plus of course salt. But you have had surgery and be kind to your body. Let it rest and heal. I also used a lot of Emu Oil as it regenerates cells and makes your skin so soft. Take care

Thanks for advice believenow. I do wear cg 24/7 plus a WAISt cincher, watch salt intake, I try doing all the good things to be healthy but still swollen. I visited doctor today and she said that I'm healing slowly since I'm still swollen. We are all different, blah blah blah...
I will need to be MORE patient... Thanks once again for taking the time to comment. I will lessen activity but will have to be more strict with my food intake.

You look awesome. I am 7weeks post op and I still feel swollen or have that numbness feeling. Did you or do you still have that sensation when touched.??
December 17, 2012
Thank you wannabecomfy! I only have that feeling when I remove cg, and it lasts for about an hour or so.

Looking good mama....really good....nice side profile...how u feeling?? how u loving it?? AWESOME looking!! :)

Thanks Sharon! I feel great! today is first day I am not wearing cg and cincher since I was really tired and sore from last night ;)
I feel naked without it. Went to Doctor last week for Viora treatment and had to order xxs cg. She said we swell because we are not compressing right and the smallest you get the harder it is to target that area (my lower abdomen)
she approved of Squeem cincher. I love my cincher but it digs right on my right side (flank) and it's so tight that I have to adjust it every so often. Annoying but I love it! Thanks so much for asking.. slowly but surely... I will send u a pic of me wearing my bathing suits... O.o

This is good, I will check out the squeen cincher. My lower abdomen above and below my c-section scarrring is a real issue for me with swelling. Thanks for the post ladies, happy healing!
