I was debating on sharing my experience but honestly reading all you ladies reviews have been so helpful and informative that I'd be remiss to not share some of my experiences. I am a 33 year old mother of 2. I decided to do lipo on my abdomen, love handled and bra roll (instead of a tummy tuck). My doctor and attendees were & still are amazing. The procedure was pretty much pain free. I have the same tightness and lumps that I've read about. But what I wanted to share was.... my Hitachi magic which I normally as an "intimate companion" now doubles as a therapy massage at night. After I shower at night I rub down with almond oil and use it. It really relieves the tightness and loosens the lumps. I try to get to my Dr to do at least 2 massages a week but this had become a nightly regime for me.

Hope this is helpful. Talk to you ladies soon! #HappyShaping

Thank you for the honesty! :D  A lot of people are sharing about massagers right now and are blessing them!

Are you wearing a garment?  And if so, what kind?  And do you know how much fat they removed?

Hi I am scheduled to have surgery with Dr . Otto Jimenez on Friday. Are you happy with your results? Did you go to the office in weston? I'm nervous because his picture and credentials weren't up on the wall like the other doctors. Please reply back if you can. Thank you.

Have you done an online search to see if your doctor is board certified?

I did and he is not a certified, nor a licensed physician. He is actually a surgical assistant. Has absolutely NO credentials. So I have decided not to do the surgery.

Did you have your procedure with Otto Jimenez? He is not a doctor, or surgeon.

I did not, no.  I had my lipo with a surgeon in northern California :).

My mistake, your profile says Otto Jimenez, Weston, $3699. I guess there is a Weston in Cali with a dr by the same name as the one here in Weston. Thank you very much for getting back with me. Best regards.

Otto Jimenez is not a licensed/certified doctor. He is a surgical assistant, practicing in the US, independently, illegally.

Shaping up beautifully

SlimThickChic
Tomorrow makes 3 weeks... My waist is very small. Which is exciting, it's still very hard and I'm trying to find the perfect board to help with abdomen smoothness. My first garment is already too large and I'm considering just wearing a corset...anyone had any experience with just a corset after abdomen lipo... Also I'm finding that I am a sleep nudist... LOL I go to sleep in my garment and board and wake up naked... should I be concern about being out of this garment unconsciously for a few hours at night....? I'm concerned, it's happened about 3 times

Please post a pic!

And as for corsets, I've just started a forum so that'll hopefully be useful in a couple of days, but for now, please check out FTA2014 for lots of corset info!  ColoradoMaiden (in regular lipo) also uses corsets.

wisdom teeth foolishness

SlimThickChic
I am a little over 1 month in (procedure date 4/25/14) And feeling great must of my lumps have softened. Even my stretch marks seem to be diminishing... I'm using pure Shea butter on my abdomen 4 times a day and hand massaging... there is still significant numbness but overall I seem slimmer....
Anyway this weekend my right jaw swole up and I had to get my wisdom teeth pulled... so now on top of my slightly stiff midsection I have a sore mouth and restricted diet... should I be concerned with weight fluctuation... anybody besides me dealing with such randomness???

You look great, but I feel so terrible for you that you had to deal with the wisdom teeth at the same time.  Good you got a month first!

Huh, when I look at your latest update, it says 2 months post-op, but that is clearly wrong.  I need to check into that.  So you see it as well?

I do see that... I'm not sure how to correct it... hmmm

I asked my supervisor, and she said that's just the way the computer counts.  1 month+1 day = 2 months.  I can't believe it took me years of being on RealSelf for me to notice that.  I'm kind of embarrassed, actually :D.
