Final Verdict
So it's been just over 2 years now I guess since the surgery. My incision scars are pretty much invisible and smooth (yes you need to work them quite firmly to reduce scar tissue) and I have to say I'm a pretty happy camper! I now weigh a fairly consistent 57kg which just amazes me, with a 2 days a week gym regime and by no means a healthy diet. My tummy has definitely flattened out and I have slight curviture on my waist now woo! You can't see it in these pictures but I always wear low cut shorts and jeans and I no longer have the dreaded muffin top. So I feel really good about everything now but also long term in like 20 years where I slow down and loose fitness I'm sure this little surgery will keep me looking super sexy.
All in all, yeah I'm glad I did it and I would recommend liposuction to anyone. Sometimes you just need a little boost to fall in love with yourself again.

2 Weeks After Surgery
It has now been 2 weeks and I no longer have to wear the compression garment 24hours a day. Now I wear it 12hours. All of the bruising is gone (yay) but all of the muscles and fascia are very tender still. I now have to start my regime for scar treatment, which involves a little tube of silicon gel and gentle massaging.
I have been worried about the massaging of myself to promote the healing process and to even out my stomach texture. So I decided to call a professional and I booked myself in to see a lymphatic specialist, who treats lots of persons with medical complications. Jan treated me for an hour, gently rubbing and kneading all of my sore areas, she also used a deep tissue laser which will also help minimise scars and helps unknot the little balls of tissue that I could feel on my belly. It was a relaxing and professional experience, and afterward I did feel much better, lots more movement in my torso and my scars felt flatter :) She then also gave me some pretty tape to wear (I have the pictures up) the tape is positioned to stimulate the lymph thingies so that they are working properly, and to aid in their circulation. All of this is helping my healing process. Apparently I just wear them for a few days until they start to come off. I feel pretty good about Jan and her work so I have booked in to see her again in a weeks time.
If anyone is interested her contact details are as follows:
Jan Hunter
Illawarra Lymphoedema Service
196 Mt Keira Rd, Mt Keira NSW 2500
ph: 02 42440208
For my one hour treatment with the lasers and the tape it cost me $105
As for my next post I am hopeful that I can sneak into the gym for some light cardio work and weights, because after paying all of this money for the liposuction and then spending the last 2 weeks at home eating and sleeping, I'm going a little crazy

1 Week After Surgery
The swelling has gone down finally. All of my bruises are starting to turn green and itchy. My torso still has a horrible bruised muscle feeling, and to touch it hurts a fair bit. I went up to Sydney again for my post op meeting with Dr Hunt. A nurse explained to me how to look after the incisions, and how to minimize the scars. And also a little about massaging the treated areas to help with the healing.
I now don't see Dr Hunt again for several more weeks.
I have included some more progress pictures, but as of yet I don't see much change. Dr Hunt did say that he removed 2kg of fat.

Provider Review
Dr Jeremy Hunt is a lovely man, he is easy to talk to and no matter how silly or ignorant I think my questions are he always answered them in a professional, helpful and easy to understand manner. So far the only problem I have had is with the paperwork/phone calls in getting all of this organised. I had not realised that my quote would need to be split up and paid to 3 separate parties. And there is a lot of information to assimilate in such a short space of time I am feeling anxious that there are questions or scenarios that I have overlooked.
