Amazing!

I had my drainless TT with lipo Jan 2019 with Dr Finger. From start to finish was amazing. The recovery sucked but lets be realistic it's a surgery. I'm 4 months post op and I love my results. I'm sticking to the gym as I always have but taking it very easy on ab exercises and I have a decent diet. The six pack that was hiding under the access skin is coming through AND my belly button looks amazing. The follow ups have been a breeze. Recover, I had no complications and didnt have to call them for anything abnormal. You have to stick to taking it easy though. I took 30 days off work so that I could heal properly. Overall great experience with him and his staff. I wore and still wear an abdominal binder and
compression garments all day. I purchased silicone strips, bio oil and cocoa butter and I use it twice a day.

I am 1 month post op and I couldn't be happier!!! I still have pretty bad swelling in the evening but totally manageable. My scar loo kings amazIng. I'm walking upright though if o ait for 30 or minutes. O half to be careful standing up due to abdominal tightness mainly where the repair is. I still wear my compression garments. I sleep on a binder all night (feet still propped with 2 pillows and I believe that more out of habit at this point) and shapers in the day. Everything fits comfortably. Draining has stopped and I begin sleeping in my own bed again after 2 weeks. Returned to work after 3weeks. No narcotics since day 7, only tylenol if needed.

I finally had my surgery on Jan22 and the morning of the surgery was wonderful. The staff was very attentive and I was able to speak with Dr. Finger before the surgery. I dont remember anything after sliding onto the surgical bed. Extremely sore and swollen as to be expected. The follow up was Friday and again his staff was amazing!!

So I'm miserable bc I'm sore and swollen, can barely get around, my husband is having to wait on my hand and foot, walking is weird and I look like a swollen square. I haven't really eaten since the surgery, absolutely no appetite. The scar has sutures and steri strips on it and the stitches are poking me. I can go on forever about how I'm miserable. When will the main swelling decrease and when can I sleep normal again? I have compression panties and they are the absolute worse so I cant wear them. Did I mention that I'm not sleeping very well.? Help!!
