13 dpo full TT with lipo in Vietnam
I am 13 days post op. Had a full tummy tuck with lipo and aggressive lipo in breast area but I chose not to have them cut there. My main areas of concern was my belly flap, gynocamastia breaststroke and bulges on sides by breasts.
My wife is vietnamese and it's a lot cheaper over here. I do not speak the language do it was a bit frustrating at times not knowing what was being said even with my wife translating the important stuff. I stayed in the hospital for 2 nights after.
I have been completely off pain meds since day 5. I'm not happy yet with my belly which still has some bulge and the ares on my sides by my chest. Hopefully it's just still swelling and fluid and will go down.
One thing I wish I had done before surgery is shave my torso. Had a good bit of chest and belly hair and the tape on these areas has sucked. I finally got some.of it shaved off when I came out of the full.body cast type bandage Compression they had me.in until day 10. I'm now in a corset and wrap. I'm 6'1" and have a long torso so it's been a challenge over here coming up with a combination of stuff to wear that covers the whole area I need.
