Little revision time....
I will need to wear some control underwear for a bit but it won't be as tedious as the binder to my mind.
Almost 8 months but OH NO!!!
So I was thinking I might need to try cortisone tape to help. No-o-o. I ended up with cortisone injections into the whole incision line. Can you say OUCH!!! Oh my....it truly did HURT. I have to return in 3 months and potentially will need the procedure repeated. I might also need a revision in the mons area - a little too much surplus skin. Apparently, he didn't pull the skin too, too tight because he had to do the " z- pasty" and skin graft on my previous scar.
So while I am still very happy that I did this, I realize that it might not be over yet!
I continue to work out 4-5 hours a week at the gym & am back working with my trainer weekly. The weight is still up a tad but I'm working on that too!
Hope all the June 2014 ladies are continuing to have amazing progress.
6 months AND one week!!
Still have numbness - buy I can live with it even if it never goes away.
Starting to feel tighter across my tummy too. My surgeon had an interesting analogy...he likened it to cement setting...it will start to pull tighter as it heals.
My scar is a little red and thickened -even though I've used the Bio Corneum daily. I think it can be treated with steroid injections. I'll discuss it at my next check up in January. Think I have little dog ears too!
I would do this surgery again in a heartbeat. The way I feel about myself is amazing. I am back at the gym full tilt too. I do a Booty Barre class that has worked wonders for my thighs - they had really swelled up after surgery.
Last week I bought my first pair of jeans since surgery (first time I ever paid $250 for a pair too!!!). In the store the staff fitting me were amazed at my butt!! They all want to sign up for Booty Barre classes now. So nice to have others comment positively on your body ..especially when you're 57 years old! **jeans were a size 8...AWESOME.
So, I hope that all the other June 2014 ladies are recovering well and happy with their results.
I know it's a very busy time of year but it would be so cool to hear from you ladies.
Take care and enjoy the Holiday season!!!
Provider Review
Dr Perron is charming and a gentleman. He is so calm and positive. Dr Perron is very busy so it can take a while to get in and see him. I was lucky enough to get a cancellation date for surgery, so waited only 5 weeks for my procedure ( rather than 5 months) His nurse, Carol, is absolutely amazing. She is very compassionate and helpful. As we were leaving, on the day of my surgery, she even demonstrated how I should climb into my car!! She returns calls promptly and makes me feel like she truly cares about how well I do. Carol has a great sense of humour too! The OR nurses, Karen & Tara were kind and friendly. Karen kept me chatting prior to surgery which really helped me to stay calm. Dr Fox was the anaesthesiologist that day and he explained everything that he was doing. I hadn't had a spinal - or epidural - before so was nervous about that too, but he was able to put me at ease. I remember 'waking' up a little just before my surgery was over and started chatting with him! He told me that Dr Perron was almost done and just stitching me up. I think I was asking too many questions (ha ha ha) and he gave me little more sedation because the next thing I knew I was being rolled back on to my bed!!! In recovery Carol brought me a lovely bowl of fresh fruit salad and a fruit tea, nicely served on china with a cloth napkin. Felt like I was in a nice hotel! Dr Perron was also very congenial with my husband on my follow up visits. So I have no reservations, whatsoever, recommending Dr Perron and his team.
