I had traditional lipo on inner tights and flanks...

I had traditional lipo on inner tights and flanks done but I've noticed that far came back to the new areas - back , abs and chin.( You have to consider that before you decide to have a lipo. I know for myself that this is not a weight loss procedure but a spring board for new healthy lifestyle. You will have to change your eating habits and work out to prevent fat reappering in unwanted areas)
So I decided to try vaser lipo as I heard that it's more detailed and recovery is faster. As I'm currently traveling thru South America I decided to give it a try. My country of choice is Colombia. Trust me I never seen so many clinics in one city before. Surgeons are highly skilled (you ve seen Colombian women right?;) and price is half or more of that in UK.
I had vaser under the chin, arms, armpits,back, flanks, upper und lower abs, hips, inner tights and knees, and finally my own fat transferred to my butt for the lift.
So as you can see if fat is to come back I think it's going to be in ankles;)
Have to say that's first two days are not easy / well my whole body was in shock. I had constant morphine drip so I could regulate dose of needed for a 6 days.
After surgery I was transported by the ambulance to my apartment and nurse stayed with me overnight ( that's include in price).for the next 4 days I had another nurse coming for the lymph drainage- it's necessary as everything is very lumpy and swollen. And that was painful on abs and back not so much in other areas.
I could move around on a second day but a morphine makes you drowsy so you should be careful.
It's been 10 days now. I only wear the knee length garment with gorset plus tight high compression socks. I don't wear anything for my arms .my Dr said it's not necessary. My body is still a bit sore and a I sleep with my legs elevated to put less pressure on my butt.
My ankles plump very quick when I remove the socks but I know it's normal as it's the way your body respond to rapid weight loss.
I will try and update you with a progress. Please ask if you have any questions

Dr Villamizar was really amazing. accommodated me quick for the surgery as I didn't have much time (2 weeks in Colombia). He speak perfect English and made me feel relaxed about the whole thing. I would definitely recommend him to others
