Improving. Worry has turned into excitement

Didn't sleep well last night and was really uncomfortable at wrk. Sick of these garments. But my physique has improved over the last 3 days. The bulge on top is decreasing slowly but surely. This has been due to super compression and massage. My second lymphatic massage is tomorrow. Also my skin color is returning to normal

Did you contact CoolSculpting (Zeltiq) about the bulge it left? There is a phenomenon that is very rare where fat grows after coolsculpting... here is a citation

CoolSculpting should pay for your liposuction. Contact them!

Your story is exactly like mine, except I haven't yet gotten the liposuction. Coolsculpting was an awful experience and ruined my body and I'm scared to ruin it more, but lipo seems to be the only cure. After a year, is your body back to the way you wanted it to be? Do you have any weird side effects, lumps, or anything weird? Your answers would be so very much appreciated. I'm so upset at the way I look.

Lymphatic Massage

atlcharm
Went in today for a lymphatic massage, hurt like hell. They seem to think I have nothing to worry about and everything looks normal at this stage. The therapist said the bulge is scar tissue. Going to see my surgeon tomorrow to be sure. After the massage I was able to button my pants so it did something. I seemed flatter, but we shall see. Even though it hurt like heck I felt better after, looser and more limber.

Massages do seem to help a lot. Good luck with everything.

Ok, I'm a little afraid

I took the tape off today and my stomach is so discolored. I don't know if it's post surgical bruising or irritation from the tape. You can see in the pics the lighter parts of my belly and breast which is my natural skintone. I hope this is normal and will resolve. Second, I have a bulge at top. This is where most of the fat was removed. It's hard to see in photos, but it's there. I'm hoping it's just scar tissue that will resolve and flatten because it's very hard. I tried to show the bulge relaxed and with me sucking my belly in. The bulge shows better then.
