The healing process is definitely easier the second time around probably because he only did my upper abdomen. I didn't have much drainage. I forgot how much your entire body swells though. My legs were so swollen on Tuesday and Wednesday. Feeling much better today. I'm able to wear jeans already (loose size 4s) , last time it was a couple of weeks before I could. I've taken a few leisurely walks. I might try the gym tomorrow. I have my post op appointment Wednesday. I finally found out how much fat they took out during my procedure, 425 ccs initially and 75 on the revision. That doesn't seem like much to me.

Hi. I had lipo 2 weeks ago and am going through similar concerns as you. I think you look great but it seems we have similar belly buttons. Are you concerned with the area above your belly button? Cause the area beneath your breasts looks perfectly flat. Can't wait to hear about your progress.

Yep, I had a pocket of fat to the left of my naval. I had a revision last week to remove it. Right now I'm too swollen to tell if it's fixed. I hope yours gets better as the swelling goes down.

For what it's worth I think you look great, but then you looked great before you got any lipo too. Please don't take this the wrong way, because I mean it to be helpful, but I think you've looked at yourself so much you can't be objective anymore. Anyone who studies an area of their body can find imperfections, we're not magazine models who have photoshop on hand. You look great, you really do. I'm much older than you, and in a lot worse shape lol, so humour me with some advice huh? Put down the iPhone, step away from the mirror and go out and enjoy yourself. I'm sure you do already but I'm meaning go out and have a good life and forget about something no one else would ever notice, you're young and you have your looks and good health, please don't risk that in the search for perfection, which only exists in Vogue and after a lot of digital trickery. Best wishes.

I had a revision on my upper abs done yesterday; the recovery is definitely easier this time, minimal draining. Yesterday I was walking around like normal. Today I'm in a bit more pain but nothing compared to the first time. I'm very swollen. The doctor was great, very friendly. I was worried because the revision was free he was going to treat me differently. He used the same incisions, but only two, as the first time to minimize scaring.
