3 month post op.
So this is my 3 month review. So far good. My doctor and his staff are wonderful, if I have a concern or worry I am able to come in fast. I had a few sores before, and there is still a big hard lump in the front, at one point it was oozing a bit and to me at least it didnt smell nice. But they looked at it, said it as fine, and once the rest is healed we can address it. It doesn't hurt just a lump of scar tissue now I think. I'm still VERY swollen, it comes and goes, but is usually better if I wear my compression wrap. I bought a new one off amazon for cheap (same they give you post op), last month I was a lot smaller measure wise, but this month the swelling went up 3 inchs, but I hope the holidays don't make it worse! lol.So Now I just have to make sure I eat better, and go back to not drinking soda! For my scars I use an essential oil blend to help heal, if you are interested feel free to pm me about it.

Been using my essential oil mix to help with the bruises. My tape came off over the weekend over my incision so i have gauze there for now so it doesnt get irritated.
Currently a lot of swelling still and i feel a bubble on my left. Im actually back to doing a lot of normal things, just cant really bend over yet or do too much that involves stomach muscles.
Next dr appt is in 2 days i will post another update.

Ugh that swelling is the worst! It will start to resolve in several weeks and you should start to feel better! Hang in there! Good luck at your next appointment :)
Hello! Thank you for your review, you have covered things others miss which has been great! I was wondering, did you have muscle repair as well, or just a tt?
Lipo/TT for back/front. I will be making another post with pics tonight. I did experience some leakage from my abdominal incision, scared me a bit to be honest lol. but it stopped, I also called the dr and he explained it to me. I think maybe a little from my belly button too but not much.
It seems like leaking is just par for the course. My belly button oozes too and became slightly neurotic.
