vaser/laser lipo on flanks and abdomen - Raleigh, NC

i had smart lipo on my love handles yesterday and will have it done on my abdomen in 10 days
the procedure was pretty much painless
the doctor gave me a sedative, 2 pain killers and nausea tablets before the procedure. i also have antibiotics to take for 7 days

i was awake through out the procedure. it took about 2 hours.
the doctor took about 500cc of fat which was less than he thought.
i am not sure of the results yet, i am having my garment changed later so maybe i will see some difference then
i will keep updated and add pictures later

2 days after surgery and i am fine minimal pain which is mainly from the compression garment, i have some itching but 2 out of 4 holes are healed already and i have stopped leaking

photos are from 24 hours after will add before photos next week

so the pain pretty much went away ( the only pain was from the compression garment) until a few hours ago now my left side feels like it is on fire, im just grateful it is not all over :)

I had my second procedure yesterday on my abdomen upper and lower
the first day has been painful to get up and lie down
I am yet to see any bruising from both procedures which is a plus
I hav major itching on my left side, I rub the palm of my hand over it and it goes away for a little while. :)
I am still swollen but I can see a difference in my tummy and flanks already
the pictures I am uploading are from before any procedures, I will update will post op ones soon

I also found out that I had vaser lipo on my flanks and laser lipo on my tummy both cost around $7000

now time to play diablo :)

its been about 10 weeks since i had surgery
I have been going to the gym 3 - 5 times a week for about 1 hour each time for the last 5 weeks
the surgery is looking good but i am still numb and it is still painful and swollen to touch

I gained weight since the surgery and cannot seem to lose half a pound even eating only fruit and veg and staying below 1200 calories a day.
this is through no fault of the surgery but it is because i started on birth control pills a few weeks prior.
Hopefully i can find a replacement that will actually let me lose weight instead of gain it so i can see the real results of the surgery :)
