Upcoming Tumescent Liposuction of Uppe and Lower Abdomen and Waist (Love Handles) - South Carolina

Thanks so much I really appreciate it I had some jitters about IV sedation but I think im ok now anything is better than General Anesthsia. What Anesthsia method is your doctor using for your surgery?

You know General is fine I had it when i had a breast reduction one minute it was 8am and the next it was 11am i asked the nurse when they woke me up "did y'all fast forward time" lol? My doctors office offers 3 free ultrasound massages in the event I do get the lumps but hopefully I will not! ou will do just fine and it will all pay off in the end. I cant wait to post pics but i probably wont post any until a week out. The swelling im not so worried about iI plan to live in the garment until its time to bathe lol! I also plan on getting my arms done but that will be later in the year!

Ya I must look into somewhere at home that does the massage just in case after. I am going to buy one of the celluite massagers just in case. Have heard they are meant to be great for the lumps and getting them out - very painful but sure I will pop a painkiller with a glass of wine and wont feel it when I do it lol.... I cant wait to see your pics, ur getting the exact same areas as me done :) I am not going in looking for a miracle I just want it to help anybit it can as my stupid tummy fat wont go away grrr.... U dont have long left, you must be getting excited. I was sooo nervous last month and was even wondering was I doing the right thing but since the start of May I am so excited and cant wait for it. Have you got anything for the brusing or swelling yet?

I havent done it yet but I am gonna look into it. I have to be honest I have had jitters all week but I have calmed down and yes im very excited too. I will have my suregery day off and the day after so hopefully I will be ok to return to work sunday I plan on walking alot. What do you recommend for swelling and bruising?

Wow ur going back to work so soon after. Wish that I could too as I am not one for staying in doind nothing but as I am also getting the uplift I am taking two weeks off work to make sure I am all ok, plus I am getting the sugery done abroad so I have to stay there a week too. From ther brusising I got Arnica, u should be able to get them in any pharmacy of medical store, the swelling i got Bromelain, Quercetin with vitamin C, I got these in my local health food store. If you can get the Arnica today or tomorrow and start taking straight away for about two weeks or so post op.

dont be fool by the go back to work in couple of hours or next day. its not true i did my stomach and thank god i dont work on the weekends else i wouldnt be able to go to work. i did my surgery on a thursday and went back the tuesday.

I understand but unfortunetly my job has policies in which i cant take off time that I dont have and Liposuction does not qualify as FMLA. so i will be off Friday, Saturday and back Sunday and off again my scheduled days off Mon and Tuesday! im sure i will be fine. I sit down all day so i wont be straining myself

Have you posted photos? How was the pain?

How come you were not put asleep?
