Peeps that had tummy tucks...question

I was a year post Lower Body Lift this past Friday and I still swell.  I had swell hell though ... to the EXTREME.  I would say it was at least 6 months before the worst of the swelling was gone.

Wow, I did not know it would take sooo long!

So how many sizes did you go down after the TT swelling was said and done?  I have been buying more expensive clothing since I am at my (what I thought) final size.  I am a size 4 right now, I cant imagine I would get much lower.

I still swell some after 8 months!

If you're wearing a compression garment, you should be in the size you'll be in post-swelling by mid May. I had a smaller compression garment after a few weeks. I still wear it sometimes, when the swelling bugs me.

I had my final shape about 9 months after the TT. I lost sizes from a 14 to an 8. I wore a 14 going in, and gradually wqent down in sizes until I wore an 8.
The swelling remains for a long time, and then gets better overnight, coming back as the day goes on. Movement and exercise increases swelling until you are finally and completely to the shape and size you're going to be.
Some people reached this around 6 months, and some take a year.
