Here We Go!

I choose dr. Moore based on reviews from this website and they were all spot on. His staff is friendly, caring amd warm. Dr. Moore's attention to detail is very apparent. I had upper and lower abs and 5 incisions were made after being numbed by a tiny needle. Then the numbing fluid was insterted, for the most part it was completely painless. A few spots felt sharp but not really. I had nitrous oxide as well and that helped. I had renuvion after and that was completely painless. He stopped and checked for symmetry or pockets and then the nurses bandaged me up. A few hours later the lidocaine wore off, definitly uncomfortable but bearable for sure. Like Jackie chan was hitting your abs! Removed 1,125ml of fat. A lot of drainage now, changing pads alot

Brusing started almost immediately but swelling has been minimal so far at day 2. The day after i was able to go to the grocery store and cook dinner no problem. There's no real pain, just feels like jackie chan went 100 rounds on my abs lol. I was prescribed Vicodin but haven't used it, extra strength tylenol works perfectly! They included a lymphatic massage which went well, nurses said incisions looked fine. They gave me a go home kit for all my re bandaging needs including pads, i thought it was very thoughtful!

Almost 4 weeks post op. I still have some hard lumps and swelling, and running and core work is still out of the question. Its scary because I think the lumps are cause some asymmetry but it's normal for this point in the healing process. I still have some pain where the lumps are. I've also elected to purchase additional venus freeze treatments, I hear they are helpful. I am very pleased with my results so far, I don't own a scale so i have no idea if I've lost weight but I can say my clothes fit much better. Over all i am very, very happy!!
