How it works
  • Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
  • This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
  • Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
  • Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.

If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

2 months post

Today marks 2 months since surgery, I don’t love my results, but it is much better than it was. I swell like crazy and I still have the crease below my belly button. I also need to go get my old belly button spot revised so it’ll be a small flat vertical (going back around 3-4 months)
While I don’t love my final results (I think my PS was too conservative with the amount of skin removed) I am working out regularly, and I think with that and a clean diet, I will be able to get where I want because I’ll have my abs back! ????

1 week

Still sore but not nearly as sore as days 3&4, I’m still only taking Tylenol. I wish swelling would go away! I want my back scoop and love handles to disappear! I hate the crease below my belly button...I’m praying hard that will smooth out like my PS said it would! Otherwise, all is well, hoping my drain gets pulled tomorrow (it’s slowed down significantly yesterday and today!)
I did a comparison of my side profile the day before surgery and 1 week post, my back/sides are sooo swollen from lipo-ugh!
Take care ????

4 days post TT and Lipo

Today I am not in as much pain, and I slept really good last night. I am still taking 1 oxy and 2 Tylenol every 6-8 hours. Oxy makes me so tired so I try to spread it out during daytime hours so I don’t get too many naps. Most of the pain and swelling is in my lower back from Lipo. Today I am in the “regret” phase though. I am sad that my stomach is swollen and not cute and flat, and my back is more painful than I thought it would be, and I feel like I’m going to be this huge and swollen forever and it’s not rational but this whole thing messes with you psychologically. I’ve cried a couple times, but this too will pass and I’ll be over this phase soon. (I hope)
My regular drain has been slowing down, so I’m hopeful it comes out right on time at day 6 or 7!
My butt crack has a drain (so hot!) but not attached to a bulb, so I’ve been stuck in diapers or with pads shoved in my underwear to allow it to drain out (that’s been as lovely as it sounds). I think tomorrow I’ll be able to let the small butt drain loose. (Fingers crossed!)
