I have booked in with Dr Mitchell Kim at the Cosmos Clinic on the Gold Coast. I'm getting vaser liposuction on my upper and lower stomach, love handles and inner thighs. I am hoping to be one of those amazing before and after examples! Sick of feeling uncomfortable and covering up my fat belly at the beach!

Thanks Kelly. I can't find any bad reviews of Dr Kim and his work looks really good. I'm so excited to get rid of my fat stomach! Hope it goes well for you too. What day are you seeing him? :)

Hi Poppy. Glad it all went well for you, except for the pain. I actually decided to go for the full tummy tuck after xmas instead as I had alot of loose skin too and figured if im spending that much money i might as well to the full tummy tuck as Dr kim was upfront and told me he wouldn't be able to get me flat. Hope your recovery goes well. Look forward to reading your posts and seeing your pics x

Good luck! Only a few more days and you will have a new body shape! I had the same procedure, it was amazing...I wore a bikini for the first time in my 28years this passed weekend. It was amazing :-)

Had my surgery yesterday. Not going to lie, I did find it quite painful! I thought I'd be more out of it, but can remember most of the surgery.
The nurse named Karen was so lovely, as was Dr Mitchell. I felt very nauseous for about an hour or so after surgery. It was very hard to get comfortable last night. When I woke up I was really nauseous, so had some pain killers and went back to sleep for a few hours. I decided to stay in a hotel for a few nights so I didn't have to deal with my kids. Great decision, as I have lay around watching movies as day. There was a lot of seepage. I didn't know it would be so much. I slept on some large pads and they were covered in blood. Its been about 24 hours and it seems to have stopped. I shall have a shower and change my compression garments tomorrow, so I'll take some photos then. Just walked to the chemist...about 20 minutes return walk and my ankles are so swollen.

Pic of pad last night.

Bit gross, but this is the front of the pad last night. So much blood and gunk. Apparently there is about 5 litres of fluid that should drain out!
