Today is my one year anniversary and boy has it been a journey. I’ve been thinking about my experience all week. This was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. In fact, I am ready for a round 2. I want to have more lipo 360, lipo in my arms and to have my butt and hips rounded more. I’m thinking late in 2021. During this time last year, I was so regretful and I couldn’t have imagined how much this surgery would have changed my life. I am so happy that I did it. My confidence is through the roof now and I absolutely love to shop. If you are contemplating surgery, my suggestion is do it. You may have regrets in the short term but that will pass quickly and you will be happy.

I started wearing a waist trainer over my faja. So far, so good. I’m hoping to get down to a 30” waist.

How was your experience with Dr. Mercedes. I am considering him for my next round.

It was good. He's very sweet and kind. His English is not great but his assistant knows English very well.

Thank you for all your updates as they were very helpful. I am looking into Dr. Mercedes and I don't believe no one was as detailed as you were doing their journey.

I wanted to share some pics of my stomach. I have a scar above my belly button. I believe this came when I was bandaged up. It possibly could have come from the lipo. I'm not really sure. I put vitamin E and bio oil on all of my scars everyday. Anyway, I'm about 2 and a half months post op. I so love my results. It was all worth it. I've been still getting my lymphatic massages once a week although I am going to stop soon. It's getting to be expensive and I am no longer retaining fluid so I don't think I need them anymore. They just feel so good which is why I haven't stopped yet. I am still wearing my faja about 22-23 hours a day. I actually ordered the next size down from Amazon because I lost so much weight. The new faja is a XL and it fits nice and snug. I lost about 30 lbs since my surgery. I'm very happy about that. Im 5'3" and currently 177lbs. I want to get to about 165. My butt is not as big as it was but it's nicely proportioned to my new shape so I'm happy with it. I've had to go shopping for new clothes. My clothes are a medium now versus XL prior to my surgery. All in all, I feel good.

You look great! Kudos to you for losing weight after the surgery. I am 4 months post op and I still get swollen in the lower abs at the end of the day. Im really flat in the morning but haven't been able to lose much weight since my surgery. Sorry you had such a rough time right after the surgery. That must have been very scary for you. Cheers to a speedy recovery!

I wear it either during the day or during the night. I do feel much more supported when I have it on. If I wear it during the day I have a lot less swelling in the evenings and if I'm swollen in the evenings and put it on it helps! I had read somewhere that our lymphatic system shouldn't get too dependant on it. My PS said I only needed to wear it for the first 4 weeks and I thought I would drop it like a hot potato at 4 weeks but the support feels great. With the warmer weather coming I'm sure I'll want to wear it less and less. I also have purchased a few pairs of briefs that have a support panel and they are pretty good too but they make horrible panty lines.
