My results haven't been as good as I would've liked. This is probably due to the fact that I had more internal fat, rather then under skin fat, plus saggy skin...
If I'm honest I haven't really dieted or been to the gym so ... not really much of a difference for me.
Good luck to everyone else who wants to have the procedure done. You might want to ask your surgeon about internal fat.

The 'internal' fat thing is something I have only learnt about recently. I had lipo last year,so have been googling lots about recovery and have come across this type of fat.
I actually went to my doc to get my bloods done/weight checked (lost 8kg after lipo!!) and blood pressure,I found that my cholestrol measurement was actually higher than before the lipo..'shock horror' ..And I do know now that any amount of fat I gain can absorb internally. Now this is really bad and I have realised I have to watch my weight more now than pre lipo!
Lipo to some, may be a quick fix,but if the person doesn't follow a good diet and exercise programme afterwards it can be more damamging I guess.

Hi there I know you had your procedure a few years ago but I'm considering using this clinic and was wondering how much you paid overall? I find a lot of the time the website quotes one price but then theres bloodword and compression garment fees on top.

Hi there, I know you had your procedure done a few years ago. I have been to this clinic. Would you recommend it?

I am now 5 weeks post op. I started exercising but I am worried that the vaser has not worked for me as much as I would've hoped. The doctor did tell me that I will need to lose some intestinal fat and to tone up, but still, I've seen other women with great results. I am size 10(UK) but I feel bigger... a bit down at the moment... I won't post any more photos of my abdomen unless it gets better :(

Its been 4 weeks now. I expected to see more of a difference by now. First thing in the morning it looks good, but by the end of the day looks like my old self, so I don't know. I have good and bad days. I want to be optimistic as its still early and the doctor said that the result will continue to improve over 3-4 months.
Hi 19ank84 -- Thanks for updating your post. I'm sorry the results weren't what you were expecting. I had never heard of "internal fat" before but this is definitely something I'll be aware of in future.
So... what's next for you? Are you going to try anything else?
"Subcutaneous fat" lies right under the skin and on top of your abdominal muscles. This is the fat that my surgeon removed.
The 'internal fat' I was talking about is also called VISCERAL fat and it refers to the fat that surrounds the internal organs.
I don't think I'll try anything new in the near future...or maybe the gym :)
Oh okay, that makes sense. And I'm guessing you need a certain amount of internal fat. I'm having flashbacks to college anatomy classes.
What is this "gym" you're talking about? I've never heard of it. ;) j/k
Good Luck
I have heard of visceral fat (as I said, from college anatomy classes) but I haven't heard of the studies that suggest lipo leads to an increase in visceral fat. Can you lead me in the right direction?
Also, I'm sorry if my post offended you. My joke about the gym was in reply to the OP's joke about the same thing. I guess it's not funny 2 years after the fact?
