4 weeks post TT with Lipo
I also went back to the gym this week just started spinning and very light weights but then got a cold and cough so I decided to wait till I'm 100% better to return.
The incision looks good and I'm pleased with my results so far just want to get swelling better under control. I'm working again starting today and feel good just feel tired and sore by the end of the day. as they say...Time heals all wounds... literally.
I'm a mother of 3 who is small framed and in good...
The Tummy Tuck with Lipo to the abdomen and muffin top was performed 2 weeks ago today.
My procedure went very well. I had 2 drains in place that were an annoyance but after a day I was a pro at caring for them.
I stayed overnight in the hospital the day of my Surgery which I was happy about because I was very nauseated and did vomit after surgery. ( this happens to me after anesthetic usually)
I returned home the following morning and took 1 pain pill but it ended up hsving the opposite effect on me and I was wide awake all night. I was not in a lot of pain at all mostly just uncomfortable so I decided just to go with extra strength Tylenol and see if I could manage the discomfort with that. I was totally fine on 1 pill every 4-6 hours and by day 4 I was off even that. The most challenging part has been sleeping for me. I could only sleep for 2-3 hours at a time. I had a recliner placed in my room and so I would switch between my bed and recliner to feel comfortable. I finally just started taking a sleep aid to help me and they has helped me the last 3 nights.
On day 6 had the drains removed which was not very pleasant but I was happy to be rid of them.
I'm getting the stitches out of my belly button today so I'm excited about that.
I will post more on my progress as it happens but so far I am pretty pleased.
Provider Review
Dr Edelstein is the best. He is kind, very informative and puts you at ease. Never pushy and completely honest. I had wanted to have Lipo on my theighs as well and he examined me and said that he felt it was not a good ide that it would end up looking worse. I really appreciated that he was honest about it and wouldn't do something he didn't feel would yield nice results. As soon as I met him I knew I wanted him to do the surgery. You have to wait a long time for a consult with him but he is worth the wait. His staff are terrific also especially Louise and Heather. If I have any questions I know they are a phone call away. My recovery has gone very well. Minimal pain and the incision line is so thin and precise. I'm really pleased so far. I know I still have a few follow up visits with Dr. E to go but my experience has been realky pleasant thus far. If you are thinking of any cosmetic procedure contact Edelstein cosmetics. Even if you have to wait, it's your body you want the best surgeon for the job. Just like in the best restaurants you have to be willing to wait to get a table sometimes, otherwise you might as well have McDonalds. ;)
