After years of hiding my legs in jeans, long dresses and skirts, I've decided to do something about my chicken legs!

I've never liked my stick legs for as long as I can remember. I'd even wear wear leg warmers under my jeans and stuff them with socks for girth! Funny thing is I still do! That's the only way I can wear skinny jeans!
In August, I'll finally say goodbye to my skinny legs. I'm anxious, excited, uncertain but yet certain at the same time.
I'll be travelling abroad to get them done from a reputable doctor.

So far, I'm happy with the surgeon. He's given me detailed answers to all my questions. He's also been realistic with regards to the results. I'd rather not have a surgeon promise me unicorns and rainbows prior to the surgery! The staff was also great ! I knew was in safe hands. I highly recommend Dr. Lückhoff!

Ugh, I have a feeling I'll struggle wearing shorts even after the procedure! It'll definitely take some getting used to! Thank you!

Just remember - as many reviewers said the final result is very insignificant. Don't expect dramatic improvement. Good luck with your surgery! :)
