Hi hopeful31!
I saw your post here and on the old forum - I'll copy/past my answer on both....
You said you saw Dr. Khouri last week and are wearing BRAVA now to prepare for surgery. A while back I had seen some of your posts about BRAVA. Have you been wearing it all these months? If so, what did Dr. Khouri think about it?
As for the bruising - I would say somewhere between week two and three, the bruises had significantly faded (kinda yellow-ish) and between weeks three and four they were completely gone. I should say, that was for the lipo bruising. The breast bruising was significantly less, and gone significantly sooner.
On the old BreastNexus site I explained....The lipo holes are also tiny - what's left of them, and you can't even find all of them now, are lighter and smaller than any of the moles/beauty marks/freckles I have on my legs. Answering if I have dent/ripples is hard to answer. My legs weren't the smoothest prior to lilp, and being 3 months out, I am told that you can expect to see improvement after lipo for up to a year! (Makes me less panicked to lose the 7 pounds I put on since surgery!)
The incisions around the breast are small needle incisions. I must have had around 15-20 per breast, and you can't find one today.
(Are you a member of my forum (listed in the first post)? I have weekly pics documenting all of this from the beginning thru this past week, but they are private and only viewable to members.)
