Step by Step Account of My First Fill



Recommended Posts

I have 10cc Allergan band. It was a curious experience. I think that's how he and all his partners do the fill. I believe they feel it cuts out a lot of the guessing. I'm wondering if, when I need another fill, they will do it the same way or start adding smaller amounts. He did tell me that they are "more agressive" with their fills, but 2cc doesn't sound crazy. I think he just meant they weren't gonna add tiny amounts.

lol. have a happy 2 days and i hope everything is good.

Yup, your other fills will be performed the exact same way. :) I've absolutely loved this method, I feel as though it takes a lot of the guess work out. I've never had any problems with being anywhere near too tight after one, I don't know for a fact, but I believe that they take out just a tiny bit more once the fluids go down.

My doc does fills very similar... Just no crunch.

She starts out with 5 cc and adjusts up or down based on how you feel swallowing the Water. I ended up with 4.8 cc.
