The most painfull of the whole process was being really crapy and contispated from all of the meds. I was in pretty bas pain until I was able to pass some food through. One I was able to pass some stool through I felt 90% better. I am just very sore but 3 days out already moving around. I eat healthy less then 2500 calories a day and do crossfit class at least 6 days a week. I had extra weight around my stomach that I could not shed. I am only 2 days out and saw my stomach for the first time yesterday when I was able to shower. I was amazed already how good it looks. If i did not get any better I would still be very happy. I am hoping in the next few weeks I will look even better.

I am a week out and more swollen but feel much better overall. Bruising is pretty awful but not painful.
I am getting really ansy now and just want to be healed. I am wearing a spanx shirt under my garment to help hold in under my armpits and breasts as these medical garments weren't men't to fit someone 6'4. :)
I looked better day 2 than day 7 but I know once the swelling goes down I will be very happy. I am hoping my report from a week from now is much better.

15 days out and feel allot better!
Swelling is starting to really go down as is the bruising. I went back to the gym on day 14 to walk on the treadmill for an hour. No swelling afterward. I am going to see the dr tomorrow anxious to hear his thoughts. Still wearing my Spanx t shirt under my garment. Since I am not as swollen it is much more comfortable and am used to it.
I am looking and feeling better everyday!

Hello looks great! I'm in the Chicago area and it's great I see someone from Chicago on here. If you don't mind me asking which doctor? I'm still interviewing doctors because the first time I went with the first doctor which wasn't a bad choice.

Hello !! You look great already! well done! I had my vaser also 2 weeks ago exaclty, lower abs inner outer thighes Im still swollen I hope to see results soon... my stomach already show better I cant wait to get back intot he gym again and lift some iron, will ask doc if it is possible to workout on my upper body yet...
January 29, 2012
Thanks! I went back after 2 weeks, just take it easy. My Doc said the worst that can happen is you start to swell. So just go slow with bands and a treadmill when you do go back. Keep that compression on :)
January 30, 2012
Yes I will keep the compression on, still 4 weeks to bear with that on... :( Thanks for the advice :) All the best to you!

Your results are great! Question, I got Vaser lip on my abdomen and flanks. I am happy with results so far, its been 5 days, however one side, my left flank looks like it was never liposucked. I can tell it was, and I am hoping that is just swelling. But why on one side and not the other side? Did you experience this worry at all and if so, when did you realize it was ok? Thanks!

Hi ! 5 days post op in my opinion is way to early to see "results" even when u see change already, do not base yourself on it, as recovery takes roughly a month. After a month yes, you can start asking yourself questions like you are doing now. I agree it doesnt seem very normal if one side looks liposucted and not the other, but maybe the surgeon was more "harsh" on one flank? Do you feel swollen, numb, pain? if yes to any of these then yes I believe there was liposuction there and u dont need to worry. Maybe your body takes time to heal and doesnt do the job at the same time for both flanks as far as healing is concerned.... Unfortunately this is only my opinion, I am not a surgeon or doctor, in my experience so far 2 weeks I do not see any difference between my left and right side... Im still swollen thats all i can say... Hope it helps, I wish you a good recovery !
P.S: Dont hesitate to call your doctor to ask him any questions, thats what they are there for, dont be shy you spent money for your surgery it includes follow up too, so your doctor should listen and answer to all your questions. :)

Schristopher - If it makes you feel better I would give your DR a call. It's very doubtful that he would forget to lipo one side. I did not really look at myself until around day 10. Even almost 3 weeks out I am still swollen and sore. I am thinking its going to take at least 6 weeks total to feel pretty normal. At 2 weeks you will be much less swollen and start to see the results.
