So I went and had my one week post op check up today (yeah a day early) and my nurse was very nice and reassuring that what I'm experiencing is normal and said in 2 weeks I will be calling her to tell her she was right ( oh how I hope I get to make that call) :-) we ordered my next garment it should get to me in a week.

Sorry to be the rain on your cloud but Dr. John Hsu is an inexperienced lipo sculpture; this dr. Is really bad and has a bad bedside manner when you bring up the points of concerns and fat he did not take out. I went with him in 5/2015 and I should have known better but got lipo with this dr. And he is really bad. He doesn't sculpt good or take out enough fat in patients. Waist of money. At least you didn't loose too much money like me $10,000.00, I would never recommend sonobello, they may have plastic surgery exp but cosmetic surgery they do not. Anyone listening out there beware and don't go to Sonebello period... butcher shop.

Try to stay positive, yours may have a better outcome. Give it a least 6 months, the swelling should go down, then take it from there if you don't see much difference. Make sure you see the doctor, John Hsu, on your next appointment not the nurse. Address your concerns to dr so he can mark it in your medical chart. Ask dr how much fat was taken. Request that he redo the lipo if it's not to your satisfaction. Hope all goes well!

I tried getting my money back and when I requested to speak to management they made me wait the whole day and it was my consultant who called me. They don't even offer the procedure I want but they are giving me a hard time for my money. Might want to look into what can be done legally. I do regret ever giving this people my money.

I saw you after pictures why didn't you post before pictures? He was very nice to me that doesn't mean he did a great job but he was at least nice. I hope my results are different than yours but only time will tell. Worst case I will have them go back in and take more fat so I'm not too worried

So today is 5 days since my liposuction and I feel like I have a very uneven tummy its very lumpy and I wear my garments 23 hours a day. I'm trying to be optimistic and say that's normal. My back looks the same as pre op but I'm also hoping it's swelling. :-( I'm going to pop some more of these arnica pills and wrap myself very tight tonight and see if anything changes. I have been eating salads and smoothies so I'm doing all I can on my end. I also noticed a blister on my right back hip today I hope it's just due to me wearing the garments too much. I go in to see the Dr. in the morning so I'm not too worried.

Trevelle I was just surprised today when I took off my garments I got bigger than it was on day 2 and I noticed all the lumps on 48 hours post op but I just figured it was normal till I started seeing and asked. I have hope mine will smooth out as I'm doing all that I'm supposed to do I just don't understand why it's not smooth swelling if that's what it is :-(... I wonder if I'm drinking too much water and retaining it??? I will find out more in the morning... I know at the end of the day I won't see full results for a while...

So this morning I woke up to take a shower wash my garments and see what I look like so far. I know I'm still swollen and I have a lot of bruising but I can see a difference already. These pictures are a little more than 48 hours apart. I had upper and lower abs waist and back roll done. I have no pain but I'm still taking pain meds. I took a quick shower took this picture and put my garments right back on I have 12 small cuts so I put cream on them and took arnica for bruising and swelling.
