Hello Everyone, I want to add my review eventhough I just had my surgery recently; on April 18th 2018... I want to share my thoughts & experience along with photos as I go in my journey. Before I considered doing this surgery I reaserched alot and this website helped me very much; and hope mine can help someone else thinking about getting liposuction. . . First, I have 3 kids work out atleast 3 times aweek eat healthy & always have been pretty on the lean side till after I had my 3rd baby, I just stopped going to the gym, & not eating so well... Gained a little weight i wasnt used too, and i gave it 2 years & it wouldnt go away... finally decided lipo... I did Local anesthesia, pain 1-10 the numbing process was the most painful, like an 8... and the sculpting part was about a 9... My Dr. ws amazing, very patient nice & informative & the nurses amazing!!! His name is Dr. Apodaca . After surgery first 24hrs no pain. I was still numb; the rest of the days it hasnt been painful just feels very tender & bruised. Everyday I feel better & better... Here are my before pics, along with my process now... & I will continue to add photos as I go... so far i am excited & anxious to see my end results but I have faith that My Dr did a good job...

Today is 10 days after Liposuction... i feel alot better less pain. No need for pain meds anymore. Just itchy, & concerned that im a little more bruised than isual, another concern is that i always get a bunch of creases and lines from what ever i wear, for example i wear a shirt under my garment and it leaves alot of lines. Besides that i do see myself slimmer but hope i continue to slim down. . .

Today i feel just sore, i think most of the numbing went down. Just feels like i worked out too long, so pain is tolerable. I also believe most of the bruising is gone & my incisions are finally closing. Today was my 2 week check up; My Dr said im still 1 inch swollen & in 4 weeks i should see my semi permanent results, & that I need to start massaging...

Well, i feel really good. Definitely no pain have been back at work for 1 week now, & I am server so I am on my feet 8hrs of my shift. I do notice every single time after work i am super swollen, ive been massages because i do have alot of lumps, hope they dont stay permanently.

Started with a medium sized faja, & now im in a XXsmall. Every week my fajas got lose. Im on the last smallest sized there is & even though its alot of money in upgrading in fajas, i love the feeling!!! My weight was 121 before surgery. I am now 114lbs. Everyday my stomach is less lumpy, & i feel really good about my results. I haven’t started the gym because my DR said wait till he releases me after my 6 week appt.

Hi guys i stopped wearing my faja last week, its just way toooo hot, my Dr did recommend to wear it for up to 3 months, but i started waist training instead. Im still happy with results!! I still get a bit lumpy, on these pics my stomach looks red cause i just finished massaging! I will update again
