Liposuction Question



Recommended Posts

I am having a lower body lift, Tummy Tuck and breast lift on 06/14 and will also have some Lipo along with it. If you've had lipo how bad was the drainage? They make it sound bad. They gave me puppy pee pads to put under me on the bed so I don't get the sheets messed up. That really grosses me out. LOL

I've had Lipo. Those pads were helpful in the car ride home and the first few days to protect my bed and couch. Day 1 there is the most drainage but it really wasn't that bad.

Skinny Jill are you going to have the drainage tubes in? I'm 3 weeks post op and I still have 1 in and I'm still producing Fluid. But I don't have any swelling or complications.

I will have 4 drains, 2 from the TT and 2 from the LBL. Does the Fluid ever leak out of the drains?

Nope, they have a little cap on them and you empty them out. My Fluid is starting to come down after 3 weeks. Yay! Maybe I'll get it out this week. It really limits what I can wear with it pinned to me! I'm still wearing the compression garment for another month.

That is good to know. I am ok with the drains. I am just worried about the Lipo drainage.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
