Howdy. Got an email reminder that I'm supposed to update my review. How nice! Lol I've been "away" for a few weeks as I've got a LOT of things going on at home. Won't bore you all with details but lets just say the past 14 months have been the worst of my life & I'm just patiently waiting to get back to a semi normal life. ANYYWAYYY...nuff bout that. Revision stuff. Not much to say. I had to cancel one of my last PO's cuz of family stuff but I was able to get in last Sat. Scar area healing nicely...right side at waist is perfect..left is off now. It could be my musclular structure or possibly still the small twist in my upper body from what's left of my scoliosis that's throwing things off. Either way, is what it is n I still look 1000 x better. Tummy is totally flat n tight no pouch at the bottom...,belly button still again a little low for my liking but can't do much about that & I'm getting used to it.
Compression: blah...I'm really not THAT swollen this time so I stopped about 3 weeks. I'm only wearing if I am swollen OR at night during sleep, unsure if it really does anything tho its loose.
Butt: looks OK...lost volume but still a better shape than the original antique model! Lol ha!
If I feel camera happy or I'm bored, I'll snap some shots soon!
Hope everyone is doing well!!

I thought you looked awesome fort o round but you also look awesome with revisions. What was the brand model of your compression garment fort go round. I'm 6 weeks out LBL, spiral thigh lift, butt lipoaugmentation and my dr. Only gave me an abdominal binder , Ted hose and ace bandage on each leg. My swelling is really bad at times and my skin is so sensitive I stopped wearing abdominal binder at 4 weeks and I am wearing some to the knee body shapers but I would like to know what model, brand of full leg, crotchless CG is best for butt aug, LBL, thigh lifts etc. loved reading all your posts you are so funny!

Hey just wanted to see if you are still happy. I'm almost 7 months PO and still swollen and not healed. Skin on back of legs back to being dimpled with cellulite. Looked great after 10 pound weight loss right after surgery but now that I am 4 pounds lighter then before surgery I still have loose thighs and swelling, and cellulite. My doctor did a 180 and was very attentive the other day, not at all how he has been before during or after surgery. He now apologized for not understanding what I wanted to achieve with surgery. He thought I just wAnted laxity of skin taken care of. I don't know how he misinterpreted what I wanted when I grabbed the fat on my thighs front, back, inner, saddlebags and said, "I want this fat gone and skin tightened." Secondly I want my butt lifted. He said I can't give you a 20 yr olds butt and I said I don't want a 20 year olds but I just want this one lifted and fat transferred to top of butt to make it not so flat! He never said he couldn't do that to my thighs, never told me he would deform my vagina and I specifically asked his manager when I was signing contracts if he had ever had that happen to a patient and she said never. He also never told me about lose of flexibility. I asked his office manager in an email if I would still be able to do yoga after the surgery but she never answered that part of the email and by this time it was close to surgery and I was preoccupied with getting everything ready prior to surgery and never followed through. Now I know why she never answered. Any way are you still happy with your surgery?

Sigh. Well 3 weeks today. Staying opened minded. I love the right side now, it's perfect..tight & well sculpted. Anddddd now, the damn left side is jacked up. My waist is, once again uneven. OMG. It looked better before. Lol. Dude, I can't seem to catch a break here. I'd love to think its swollen...and MAYBE it is...but most of the work with the touch up was done in my right side which was more fatty. Also right side was the scar extension which now *cant be hid under a bikini. Lol honestly don't care..I scar nicely but I do care that MY WAIST IS STILL NOT EVEN!!! waaaaa!!!!!!!!! Posted pics from tonight. Go ahead tell me I'm too hard on myself or, u can't see it. Lol I know the deal! Lol really tho, I spent way too much money to not have some damn symmetry. Positive note. My booty is staying full. Not a lot of projection but the upside down heart shape is sticking around and my lower cheeks look cute! Think of how much more nice they'd be if I had an even waist to go with it!? Grr. Post op check Feb 23. Hopefully it's swelling & magically ill be good by then or Dr Lu isn't gonna like what I have to say. Lol ha. Sorry ladies I seem to have a bad 'tude again. Hoping everyone else is doing good!

Hugs!

Howdy;) So...11 days post op after revision of lipo/fat transfer & minor scar tweak from TT/BBL early last year. How am I feeling? EH...I'm a bit more of a baby this time around cuz I know how long it takes for swelling & the residual pains & weird feelings to subside. My lower back & inner thighs are still pretty bad esp when getting up from a standing position for an extended amount of time. Pain scale from 1-10 I'd say apprx 6...but as I move around and stretch it goes down to a 3/4. I'm still VERY puffy n my poor legs....they're BIG. "Thankles" is a better word! (Hybrid thigh/ankle combo) LOL I know it will go away so I'm not bothered by it. Just not pretty to look at! My flanks are puffy. My lower abdominal area looks great! Biggest immediate improvement. Being patient is hard but I know the end results will be good. My butt is still pretty out there! ;) For me anyway! I asked got a fuller more upside down heart and that appears to be what's goin on back there! I have a feeling she's gonna stick around this time, which is AWESOME! I'm planning on more pix by Sat/Sun to see if there's any comparisons from 6 days out.
Hope all is well for all my RS friends!

Hugs n kisses
Lynn ;)
