I just wanted to let everybody know that I am five weeks out from surgery yesterday and am healing great! My scar line is relaxing and smoothing out flat and some areas are already turning white. No openings, knock on wood, and my hips look so slim in my pants. I am in all my current clothes but some are getting real loose in the waist and seat area. I feel probably by the end of the summer to be a size smaller after all the swelling leaves. Most of my swelling in kind of center in the lower tummy and mons area. Since wearing my compression garment my hips and lower back area looks great. I have been blessed with an awesome surgeon who tool a pile of skin and made a wonderful figure out of it!

Glad to hear you are well! My swelling from my TT also is concentrated in the lower cent of my ab and mons. I also have swollen thighs.

Me Too! I look great in the morning and look like the michelin tire man in the evening from the swelling.
