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.

Day 5 abs and cankles
Seriously though!!!! My abs and v look insane and then my knees( if you can call them that and cankles are unreal! I would post a pic, but I’m so embarrassed lol
Anyway.. day 4 and 5 have been great -have absolutely no pain. Slept like a baby on my blow up mattress and have been walking around all day. I get tired of being in my blow mattress and get a little tired when walking around but my lower back gets really tight so I have to get up and move around more than laying down. I’m doing donkey kicks and little tiny squats and walking around the house to get rid of the stiffness and it seems to help.
I can feel my bruises, but only when I get up from laying down. The best way I can describe it is like roadrash and when you stand up it all cracks. Hurts for a sec but goes away.
Still taking all meds and supplements.
Forgot to add that I also take bcaas and collegen 2 times a day for repair. I’m also drinking a gallon of water a day. Still going pee about every half our now but it’s still annoying, but I feel normal. I’m actually getting cabin fever and want to get back to work, gym and daily life.
Doc says as soon as my drains are out I can go back to everything. I have an appointment on Tuesday, so I’m crossing my fingers that both drains come out.... I have [RS bleep] to do!!!!!
Netflix on 24/7 binge watching Riverdale! Love it!

Day 3
Didn’t sleep well again because I am still getting up to pee all the time???? can’t wait til this is back to normal. Also my lower back is hurting because of the blow up mattress they are having me sleep in. Has a huge hole for your butt, but is so hard to get out of and my back is throbbing ???? also have a sore neck from sleeping all crazy.
Went to the doc and took off my garment! Felt so good to get it off but looked like a baby hippo due to all the swelling. I also gained ten lbs since surgery because of all the swelling. I am super bruised and I look really scary, but I can see my obliques ,six pack and my V line. Ohhh .... Did I mention that my butt is actually the size of Texas ????
Doc said I look Great and the swelling is normal. Said my butt is going to shrink and that he only added about 200cc to shape my butt. Remember I really didn’t want him to mess with my butt because it is already big. He also said It was a little hard to sculpt where I had my tummy tuck before . He said all turned out good. Got an ultrasound massage that didn’t hurt at all. My hubby cleaned me up with wipees and the garment went back on...
Still pain free but very tender when the doc was touching me. We asked about a little part that was flat on my butt and doc proceeded to scrunch my butt together to mold it - hurt like a mother !!!!!!
He said it should take shape within 6weeks. I guess we will see.
I’ll update soon!

Day 2
Home now and Forgot to mention that I have 2 drains. One right above my pubic area and the other on my back side just above the crack of my booty.
They aren’t bothering me, but I have to empty them every couple of hours because I am draining a lot.
Didn’t sleep well because I am still having to pee every five minutes or so. Kinda feel like I have a bladder infection because nothing really comes out... this is the most annoying thing about the surgery so far.
Pain free and my appetite is still soup. Can’t really eat anything because my throat is sore and so dry from where they had the breathing tube in me.
Started taking arnica and bromelain for
Swelling because the swelling is unreal! I have cankles and last time I checked I thought I had knee caps ????????
