Vaser Lipo- Definitely Worth It!!

WORTH IT$5,300

I have decided to get Vaser Lipo on my Upper and Lower Abs, Love Handles and Sacrum (area above the butt). I found a great, board certified plastic surgeon. At my consultation said my procedure would be considered large volume liposuction, I would be under general anesthesia and the procedure would take approx 3 hours. He estimated he would remove 4 to 5 liters of fat.

I am not really scared for the procedure to be done because I am going to be asleep. I already had my pre-op appointment and he gave me all of my precriptions. He said I am going to have alot of swelling from the surgery and the fluid so he is choosing to put in a drain tube. Now that part scares me! I can imagine how that thing is going to feel coming out. OUCH! But if it will help I am willing to do it.

I will post before and after pictures and updates after the procedure. Any question, comments, or advice is welcome.
