Planning your tummy tuck recovery at home? In this solo episode of Big Butts No Lies, Mavi shares an updated recovery masterclass packed with raw, real notes straight from her post-op facility, The Recovery Haven.

Mavi dives deep into what the first week after surgery actually looks like, starting with the reality of post-op pain and why the old myth that liposuction hurts less than a tummy tuck is completely false. She breaks down the exact gear you need to stay independent and comfortable, explaining why an electric power-lift recliner is vastly superior to a bed, and why a toilet riser is an absolute 10/10 game changer. You will learn how to safely build a "nest" if you are recovering from a combined tummy tuck and BBL, how to safely navigate your first shower, and why wearing a Stage 1 compression garment that is too tight can dangerously cut off your circulation. Plus, Mavi tackles the ultimate post-op hurdle—the brutal battle against narcotic-induced constipation—and shares her exact protocol for getting your bowels moving safely.
