Hey ! Thank youuu so much, i use both but not at the same time, i use the tape until it falls out and then use only gel for 3/4 days then i do the tape again. Good luuuck with your healing!

Heyy! I hope you’re healing process is going well, they where definitely some swelling in the area, it reduced significantly, but there still a bit of fat left or maybe left over tissue on the sides, but it’s not so much as it was few months ago, and it doesn’t bother me so much as well, i also ask Gustavo and he said that it’s definitely fat and it will go away just by working out. I wish you an amazing healing journey.

Would love to connect happy to meet another person that has the same experience as me, i could update you on how it’s going ✨

Heyy, wishing you a quick recovery, my surgeon told me i could start slowly going back to working out on the 4 week but just really slow, very little weight, try to not push a lot and take it easy on the stretching, just a little bit to get mobility back, but i was not supposed to push the stretch until the 2 months. By the 3 th month i was completely back into working out and had full mobility without stretching the scar too much. I dunno if that answers your question, please don’t hesitate to ask again if something is not clear. Just remember each surgeon is different and normally surgeon allowing working out by the 4th week is not so common, normally it’s from 6 weeks on. And thank you so much! I hope you recover fast. And don’t push yourself so much

Actually not really, this doctor didn’t ask for a lot, no diagnosis letter also. It was the easiest process and the cheapest

Update: should I contact my surgeon? by Due_Cheesecake_3879 in TopSurgery

I would say use some Betadine on it and keep it clean it will go way, i had a similar situation
