“Not So Sure..”

hi Bettsue, don't worry it will get better. 7 days is really WAY to early to comment on the outcome. I am 10 weeks post op and still getting better. Take before/after photos and measurements to keep yourself sane :)

I had SmartLipo with vaser and suction on my thighs (inner, outer, front, back) on July 1st and was advised by my doctor to wear the compression garment for a minimum of two weeks after which I could wear it for 10/hrs day for another two weeks. I have not taken any pain meds at all and suffer discomfort from swelling and bruising which is finally getting a little better. If I hadn't seen the containers myself I never would have believed the doctor removed 8,000 cc's from my thighs, ugh. She said apx. 1/3 of that amount was tumescent fluid, the remainder fat and a little blood. I haven't seen any weight loss yet and haven't tried to put jeans on, so will comment on that at a later date. Felt good enough about the whole process that I had my arms done July 9th. Swelling and some bruising, but not nearly as uncomfortable as the thigh job. Really hope the whole process was worth the discomfort and financial investment. Sure hope things improve for you.
