Well I can't believe it's just 6 months already.
So here is an honest review. I thought I would be a lot more happy with my overall results and I am not. My one main regret is not having my tummy area done aswell. I rushed into getting the flanks done in the hope that it would give me a kick to work out even more on my abs as they were not that bad I didn't have a large amount of fat to loose. However if you are sore the first few months it's hard to get back training and then the longer you leave it, it gets harder and harder. So I am gaining weight again! I have asked to meet with my doctor in Jan as my scars did not heal great and still have a bit of discolouration of my skin on my sides.
To anyone considering this please make sure to have all areas done together as I was told too but i decided not too. Get active ASAP and don't stop!
I will post some pics and see what you think. ????????

Hi all. So I 1 month post vaser on flanks tomorrow. I just want to give an honest review as I know people need to hear all sides. I'm going to break it down easy.
The procedure itself= uncomfortable, painful at times, but tolerable
The 1st week= sore when moving, emotionally draining, not so much pain. But feeling tired and down got headaches and got my period a few days later. Was hell!!
2nd and third week= struggling with constantly wearing garment, irritated, itchy and depressed from not being active enough. And very hungry (probably just me
4th week = moving around better had 6 manual lymphatic drainage massages in total (some doctors say you don't need these but I think they are amazing and really help with swelling and lumps) downside they make you feel tired.
So Overal the swelling has reduced dramatically over the last week. But now I have the flu well I think that's what it is. I'm sick days so I'm going to my own doctor as my immune system seems all over the place. And I really need something.
Spoke to the doctor who performed the vaser and he advised one more week wearing garment 24/7 ???????? And can't go back training until my 6 week Checkup
Anyway I am feeling depressed right now as I'm always hungry and have gained a few pounds again.
Okay so that's it for now. It's differently not been an easy four weeks but manageable. If you do not mind not being active you will be fine but that's not me. I am terrified I'm going to put on more weight which will totally defeat the purpose. But it's still very early days and it's so true you need some amount of patience.
I hope I am happy in another few months with the outcome and back to normality.
Hope this helps others. Will post some pics again soon ????????

Your pics look good, try not to get depressed and look forward to the coming months when your body has settled back to normality. I had liposuction a couple of years ago, I had it done in Dublin (I live in Ireland too) and it was a disaster, I ended up going to Prague to get it fixed!
Only mistake I made after surgery was to become too complacent and was eating too much, the weight definitely went back on, I put on nearly a stone without noticing it, as it didn't go onto my tummy, where I had the liposuction! Good luck with your recovery!

Thanks Hun. Yes that is my fear too. I'd say people don't realise how easy it is to put the weight back on. I only got flanks so I'm seeing it a lot more on my tummy. Anyway I will try to remain positive. I'm sorry to hear what happened you. Was it the doctors fault??

Your results look great so far and your spot on this journey can longer/more mentally draining then we think but it's still early days.
If you want to change your doctor or or stars from Dr Roy send a message to RS help as they may have admin control and would be able to assist, just a thought :-)
Keep positive keep massaging and you'll be back to working out before you know it :-)

3 weeks post op
I have found a pic from last year when I was working out non stop and while I look slim I still had fat on the sides. The left pic is from last year and the right is last week two weeks after vaser Lipo on my flanks and i can already see the difference and it's really early days.

Your results look great and as you said it's only early days. Just keep taking each day as it comes, time will fly. How's your swelling now?

Hi there. All swelling is gone. It's 3 months now and it is a lot contoured and better shape overall. I am pretty much back to normal. I am definitely happy I got it done
