Posted to did you gain weight after vaser? on 24 Nov 2011
Actually, there has been a study which supports the theory that within a year, people can gain weight in other areas --something about the body compensating for the fat cells removed. You have to be super careful of what is consumed in terms of calories after this procedure
I actually had my redo on July 8 for abs and flanks -- I was terrified of the pain and it did not disappoint! It seemed like a different procedure -- some parts okay; other parts, very painful. I really noticed a huge difference the first day ( don't remember noticing that the first time around). Way more sore this time and very swollen; however, I think the results will be good. Will keep you updated.
Hi, I had vaser done on my stomach and flanks over 18 months ago and my stomach seem to have gotten bigger ( only place). My doctor only took 1000 cc out that's including the solution. I went back to him and he has offered to do a redo since not enough was taken out. Is the second time more painful ? I'm terrified it will very difficult the 2nd time around in the same area.
Posted to Swollen After Smart Lipo on 11 Jan 2010
Hi: I had vaser lipo on my stomach/abs on September 21. My doctor was very happy about the results; however, I still have swelling and, believe or not, my waist is "thicker". Huh? I'm flatter but it's somewhat discouraging when you read everyone else's post talking about dropping 3 dress sizes etc. I saw my doctor about 2 months after the procedure and he was happy with the result. Now, nearly 2 months later, I feel "bigger" (have not changed my eating habits and everywhere else is the same). The other day, my pants felt "tight" around my waist. Is it possible to swell up and down? Please let me know how things go.
Posted to No Change After Vaser at 12 Weeks on 4 Jan 2010
I had vaser liposuction done on my abs/flanks. Doctor indicated he took close to a pound of fat out. My stomach is flatter - no question about it but my waist is "thicker" - now my measurements around that area are up close to an inch?!? Before the procedure, my measurements weren't that bad - just flabby - now tighter and bigger? Should point out that I still have numbness around my lower abs. Anyone out there have the same problem? Please don't tell me it's diet - have not change my eating habits - the rest of my body is the exact same. For example, just today my skirt looked good but felt "tighter" around the waist.
