4 weeks post op

4 days ago I had an incision start opening up Dr Rao got me in right v away. It wasn't infected and he treated it very proactively. It feels good today. The only issue I'm having is my skind feels weird almost like it's burning. But nothing too major. Still have abdominal swelling. The drain came out a week ago.

Day 14 post-op

1,drain still tensions. The output is still a little higher than Dr Rao was comfortable removing it. Fingers crossed tomorrow is the day. I did get sutures out of my new belly button. And it actually looks like a belly button. No part of my results looks obviously fake to me. And Dr Rao had a lobby full this morning yet I never have to wait he's so good about running on time.

Day 10-12 post op

Everyday things look better and better. Still no pain until I went back to work just got tired and stiff mostly. feeling great. On day 11 one of my drains was "sliding out" no biggie until it came out to much and kept filling with air. I thought it looked like the end so I decided to just take it out myself. DO NOT DO THIS it turns out there is about 12 inches left inside once you start there's no going back. It didn't hurt but now my other drain is compensating and I'm supposed to get out tomorrow but I think my output is still too much. I will be so happy to be done with drains. Also I can't fit into any pants/shorts/skirts from before. I'm hoping its swelling in my thighs and ass. Even my work scrubs don't fit. They're scrubs! Overall the results still look great.

From the first email reply from the office, Carmen was a doll. When I met the Dr he and I aesthetically are on the same page, I'm confident with him. I had my lips done last week and the Dr was great. Carmen took care of everything else for me. Today I scheduled. Dr Rao answered all my questions and the ones I forgot to ask Carmen was able to answer for me through email (my preferred method)
