I am booked in for circumferential thighs lipo on 11th June. I will add before photos soon. So far the clinic has impressed me. I am due to go for a pre op appointment on 4th June and will be measured for my garment.
I have previously had traditional liposuction and do not feel this was worthwhile as the areas of fat I really wanted to be removed were left and I feel my saddlebag areas are actually worse than before this lipo. Due to this, the surgeon has recommended that he go over all of the thigh to correct this. I was concerned about having such a large area treated, however, I have been advised that this is not as uncommon as I think it is.

Thought I would post a little update. I will do a more detailed one tomorrow. Very positive experience at Elanic yesterday. All staff who dealt with me were amazing. They have it all covered there - including a bag with all things you might need for post op care. I didn't really need pain relief yesterday. I did take one co-codamol and one ibuprofen at night to help me sleep (I'm a bit of an insomniac but didn't want to take my usual cocktail of sleeping aids).
I was very sick last night and felt very nauseous. I had eaten prior to this then I went for a short sleep and when I woke I felt very dizzy and sick. To be honest, it felt more like a migraine with pain on the left side of my head followed by extreme vomiting. My partner phoned the help number he we were given and the nurse suggested it may be a reaction to the sedation/local anaesthetic but to phone back if it didn't improve and to eat something simple - cue the scrambled eggs. I did feel better after this.
I feel stiff today but otherwise ok. I have been up an about and I'm planning to go for a walk outside despite the yucky Scottish weather.
I will update in more detail about my experience at Elanic yesterday because this was truly a 5* service and I left feeling very impressed by the care I received.

Hi - I have no idea. I was also sedated so don't remember a thing! I think they said I was quite sleepy during the procedure.

Thank you. Feeling ok, just hoping it all turns out ok. Feel free to pm if there is anything you want to ask that I didn't cover x

Thank you. After I had my tummy tuck at elanic I was very swollen & found myself crying regretting what I had done but then as I started to recover & I started seeing the results it was honestly the best thing I had done, hope it's the same for you x

I hope so. I just really want the fat at the top gone. I don't really care about the rest. I was a little sceptical about laser Lipo as I felt vaser would get rid of more fat. Will remain hopeful though! Its the thought of having to do it again in the future as this is my second time having lipo (though my first experience with this clinic) x
