My Lipoabdominoplasty Journey Part 4 – 2 Week Post Op Recovery & Tips
If you are following my mommy makeover journey with Lipoabdominoplasty, it has been two weeks since my procedure at COSMETICARE with Dr. Brian Reagan, and I’m doing great. I started walking up straight the same day thanks to tension sutures. My doctor is amazing! I’ve been off pain meds for days, I’m showering, walking but walking slow, sleeping in my own bed (no longer on the couch), still drinking lots of water, stronger every day, and I had a lymphatic massage yesterday. I’m still wearing my binder as instructed and will soon switch to Spanx. Everyone that visited me say they are surprised how well I am doing in this short amount of time. I don’t recommend this because it is a lot of walking, but I was at Disneyland a few days after they said I could drive again and I took lots of breaks. I have some helpful tips that could make recovery a bit easier below. (Pictured: Day of Surgery, 1 Week Check up, and 2 Weeks Follow-Up).
