First of all I just wanted to say how amazing I feel after the surgery - the swelling on my abdomen has gone done a huge amount since I saw you for my follow-up (five days after the liposuction), and I can't tell you how happy I am with the new shape. I'm wearing clothes I love that I wouldn't have looked twice at before due to my pregnant-like body shape! I am extremely grateful, the surgery was definitely the best decision I have ever made. I'm happier than I have been for a long time.
Secondly, I just had two things I wanted to ask you about. Quite ironically, the swelling has gone done so much my compression garments are now a little too lose - when I walk quickly they constantly slip down at the top! I was wondering if the tubigrips came in a size smaller, and were available to buy anywhere, or if the next size down would be far too small and meant for single limbs as opposed to the whole body?
Also, around my flanks and back I have some hard lumps under the skin, which I've read is very common following liposuction. I was only wandering if they will go down by themselves, or if it is advised to get some sort of massage for them?
Thank you so very much again for this life-changing procedure! I.M.
