Liposuction provider: Not specified

its been a little over 2 weeks since i had lipo on my abdomen and flanks, and at first i didnt think it worked! i was sssooo swollen and miserable, but just yesterday i took my measurements and have lost 2 inches in my abdomen and 1 and 1/2 in my waist and my doctor says i will lose many more inches in the weeks to come when all the swelling is gone. i had only local anesthesia, and was back at work in 3 days. the worst for me is the burning and swelling, but its been worth it so far!!

Glad to hear your surgery went well especially after all these horror stories- I am getting it done in a month under only local so I hope it is not too bad- Any pictures would love to see results well healing-
Thanks and take care

It sounds like you are going to do fine. Any burning and swelling should resolve.

The 1 1/2 to 2" changes you mention are really relative to your starting size. . . IF you are pleased, then it was worth it.

How are your final results? When did your burning and swelling resolve? I'm sure people would like to hear it from you.
