My experience has been surprisingly fantastic so far! I was a size Aust10 -12 and had six areas done just yesterday. I was under local anasthetic, i did feel some pain during the surgery but i was also under light sedation so it was uncompfortable but not severe.

I threw up after the operation which wasnt to good but i think i reacted to the morphine tablets I was given immediately after surgery. I managed to walk myself to the recovery room and put my garment without assistance. My boyfriend arrived not long after to wait with me till i was feeling up to walking to the car. I was leaking out of the incisions, and still am. the bed i slept on last night was litteraly covered in a light watery coloured blood, I still need to sit on a towl but the leaking is starting to settel.

The pain is minimal! Its exrordinary, I have had worse hangovers than this! Im taking the antibiotics prescribed which is really important in case the incisions get infected, so i am taking these 3 times per day along with over the counter pain killers, they have given me more morphine tablets which I am not in enough pain to warrent taking as they make me feel really nauseous and tired.

THE RESULTS: are exroadinary already! even with the swelling i look so much smaller, i cant beleive, my hips, stomach, saddle bags are significantly smaller! and my arms are smaller and hopefully they will come down a bit soon. The incisions dont look to good so when they heel up a bit more i will start using scar cream, and possibly get laser treatment on them. The bruising is just starting to show and swelling is not to bad at all...

One thing that i am absolutely amazed by: pre surgery i got on the scales and i was 68kgs (149pounds) they sucked out 4 litres of fat, which i saw with my own eyes, amazing to see that much fat came off my body.... i look and feel smaller but when i got on the scales today and i am still the same weight!? Overall im extremely happy and recommend the Liposculpture Liquid Lipo.

honey--

I did a similar procedure. I recently had my whole body done, outpatient, over the course of 4 days (three weeks of surgery). I had the same thing--leaking, etc. I also felt some pain during the procedure, and vomited after the assistant sat me up on 2 of the 4 days.

While I do notice differences in the shape of my body, I am disappointed thus far that there are no reductions in inches or on the scale. I'm really hoping that will change. It's been 18 days since my first procedure and two days since my last procedure. The doctor removed about 11 liters total off of my body (again, over the course of the four procedures in three weeks).

I have soreness, but it was not anything serious at all. In fact, I have not even needed painkillers. My biggest problem is that I'm not seeing the results I was hoping for yet, and that is causing me some emotional distress. I read about depression in post-surgical patients, so I knew to expect this, but really how much longer do I need to wait before I see reductions in inches, especially in my waist/hips? I was a size 18 before the procedure, and tried to put on my pants today and they fit the same way they did before the procedures. :-( That was very depressing.

I had liposoft/liquid lipo on my outer thighs and love handles 5 days ago. Pain hasn't been too bad but I'm a bit worried also. I know that there is swelling but I can't notice too much of a difference yet. I'm wondering if your results have improved since this post?

Worth it. Just wondering which clinic you went to? And where exactly you had the fat removed from? as I am surprised by the cost. Most websites I look at say the cost is approx 4-6k?

My results...I sorta gave up on it. I don't think it was worth it. I had arms, back, flanks, hips, abdomen, inner thighs, outer thighs, and knees done. It's now been 6 months. I healed in weird shapes in some places--for instance, my "spare tire" on my lower abdomen now just looks like a deflated spare tire. I have new rolls on my arms (who has rolls on their arms?).

Since then I've lost about 30 lbs on my own. So my size has gone down, but I don't attribute it to the surgery. I guess I just think this would have been a good thing to do if I was, like, 125 lbs and just had a little tiny pudge that wouldn't go away. But I was wayyyy overpromised and no, I don't think it was worth it.

My surgeon, for what it's worth, offered to redo the spots that we agreed we didn't like (arms and abs) for free...but wanted to wait until all swelling went away. Well, surprise surprise, I haven't heard peep from him since then. Not even for a follow up, which would have been standard.

Would love to know how all you ladies are now? I've booked myself into the cosmos clinic Sydney. Could not find any other place that did liquid lipo. Dr Joseph Ajaka will be doing the procedure.
