I have made it to 4 weeks and my swelling has gone down alot. I still have my drain, but it will be removed by the end of the week. Still unable to stand straight. I started work yesterday, taking it slow and feeling good. I am really happy with my results!

Honestly, my results went above and beyond my expectations! I am so happy with my results. I do recommend Dr. Pantoja and his entire staff. Nurses, cardiologists, anesthesiologists, everyone had amazing bedside manners, they all answered ALL MY QUESTIONS (I'm a nurse, I had many) walked me through everything and made me feel very comfortable.

11 days have passed and I have been feeling better every day! I am so lucky to be staying at my moms so she can help me. The one thing I really need help with is showering myself. I can't walk straight yet, but getting there little by little. Still really swollen, here are some pics

I have made it to week 1, and I have to tell you recovery has been hard for me. I am staying at my moms, she is taking care of me. My back is still very numb so It has been very hard to walk by myself. I'm walking around holding onto my carryon luggage. Today is the day I can finally walk without it thank god! My incision itself is really low and thin which I love. Really hoping to recover soon, I want to go back home to my husband and 2 sons.

I'm sorry it has been so hard. I can see it on the pictures. It's expected to be painful its a big surgery. I guess it's different for everyone. At least you're feeling better. Hang in there, pretty soon you'll be posting sexy pictures and making us jealous.

Thank you! I woke up today feeling a lot better. I hope to get more full body pics soon.

I am having surgery with Pantoja in March of 2020.
I am having a tummy tuck with lipo in arms, upper and lower back, waist and thighs with a BBL. I’m excited but terrified. I can’t wait to see more of your pics ❤️
