“Love handles are gone!”
Liposuction: Worth it
Pain: Severe
Ihad liposuction 7 weeks ago on my hips/ love handles. I had a baby and during pregnancy I developed gross love handles that would not go away. Well, they are gone now. My surgeon did agreat job.
The only thing is, they tell you that it feels like you had a hard workout. Um, no. It hurts alot more than that. 7 weeks later and the area is still tender.
So far I love my results, even though I think I am still a bit swollen.

Update - 9 months post op! I still have a bit of pain every now and then, feels like little needles going in. I think it's the nerves regenerating. Also just some mild tenderness that comes and goes. Here's a updated photo! I am still very happy. (please note I am 10 weeks pregnant in the picture and gained about 10 pounds since the surgery)

I'm in the Dallas area and looking for a local surgeon for lipo in the abdomen area. I would be interested in knowing who your surgeon was as well. Thanks

Hey, Love the results! I'm considering lipo on my love handles and back but am hesitant because of the incision locations. How do they look? Are they noticeable? Are they discolored? I had lipo on other areas and some incisions look better than others. The ones under my butt are barely noticeable anymore, but the ones on the inside of my knees spread and are now a lot lighter than the rest of the skin.
