Quick update. It's a little over three months and still some swelling the cones and goes along with some tenderness, mostly of the flanks. Also still numb on most of the area around the belly button. Overall I am very happy with my results :) slowly been getting back to the gym. Did some abdominal workouts the other day, but left me very sore. So I think I will hold off on that for a few more weeks.

Nice work man, 3 months is a tricky period. You start feeling like you can really go for it, but you really can't. Take it slow. Keep eating clean (as you can) and keep looking after it. I'm just about to hit 5 months next week and will put up some more photos, the swelling is starting to come down so there's definitely light at the end of the tunnel! I am however back 100% at the gym so a little more patience and you'll be there too.

Your doctor did a good job, everything is very well balanced with the rest of your frame. I found that there was off and on swelling with improved contour changes for up to 1 year after surgery. Try to avoid eating processes foods and watch your sodium intake, this will help with swelling. Your doing everything to the letter, massage, exercise, scar care. For me doing all of this allowed my abdominal skin to heal flat and tight really showing off my new contours. For me its been 13 years and it looks the same as the day I had it done!!! Enjoy your new self.

Hey all!!! Ok so I am at 1 month and 2 days post op. I feel great! Almost back to normal, but not there yet. The swelling is still very persistent, especially on my left side as you can see from my pictures. I have had 5 lymphatic drainage massages since my surgery, and they really do help. I highly recommend that you do these because they help to get the swelling down. My scar looks great. I have been applying my scar treatment cream twice a day and I am already seeing results. Going to the gym about 3 times a week. Been walking on the treadmill about 1.5 miles each time. Hopefully I can start incorporating more exercises in the next few days.

Nice man, the swellings really starting to come down for you. I'll have to sort out a lymphatic drainage massage or 2 for sure. Looking good!

Glad you can see the difference! That's reassuring. This has been intense but I'm pulling through. I highly recommend the massages. I have a few more lined up. Well worth the cost... :)
