Scar revision

WORTH IT$7,965
Well 10 mths and some change later, I had a scar revision and some lipo. I'm only 2 days post op so I'll take pics as I go. I haven't seen the results myself yet. It is painful but I only took 2 days off of work so hopefully I can function by Monday. Let's see how this goes!

My consultation with Dr. Leppink was everything and more. I went in for Lipo but he let me know that he would not take my money for something I would not see results in. His honesty drew me to him. Most doctors do not care and will take your money and not be truthful about results. His staff was amazing and friendly. They were quick to respond by email and or phone and never seem to have an attitude. The day of my procedure was flawless. I was scheduled to be at the office at 8 and they called me back early. Everyone was nice and very knowledgeable and let me and my husband know step by step what was going to happen. Dr. Leppink even called my husband later that day to make sure I was ok and to see if he or I had any questions or concerns. I truly recommend Dr. Leppink to anyone, this experience was beyond my expectations.

Hi
Just wondering how everything turned out and if you can post an updated picture.

No binder

I pretty much look the same as my last picture, so I won't upload until I feel there's a difference. Went to an appointment on Wednesday and he told me no more binders. Yesterday was really painful to say the least, but I got through it. I'm swelling so much and the more I swell the more ugh I feel. My stomach gets pretty numb too when I start swelling pretty bad. He said I can start working out as I like just take it slow. I really want to see a difference so Monday I'm going to start Focus T25 and see how that goes.

Yikes! Your still swelling after 2 months? Is that normal?
The dr said that it is normal. It's only been 7 weeks. Hopefully it'll subside soon

I don't know if I'm happy with my results. It appears that my flanks have a roll and I seem wider to me. Maybe it's too early to tell and I shouldn't compare myself with other people's pictures and results but I will discuss this tomorrow at my appointment.
