So I'm a newbie to surgery, but decided a few weeks ago to have some lipo. I'm in my late 30s and a busy lady so don't have the time to shift the flabby bits. Lol. Surgery date is in couple of weeks and I'm actually super excited!! I want to go now ???? The staff at Elite Aftercare have been truly amazing. Feel very confident with my decision. The only thing now is to decide if to have a mini tummy tuck to go with the lipo. Also I have opted for regional instead of general as I heard the recovery is much better. Any advise will be much appreciated xx will upload before/after pics after surgery.

Sorry it's been awhile. Well I went ahead and so glad I did it! The whole experience was out of this world. The team were truly amazing to say the least. The amount of care and attention I received was incredible! When I arrived I was greeted with refreshments and a very nice comfortable car. I felt a bit like royalty! The hospital staff were so attentive and friendly. My hospital room was clean and very modern. Dr Uckan is such a great surgeon. We talked for a while about my expectations and the results I should expect. I stayed the night at the hospital. Was sore and uncomfortable but this was expected. The nurses came round the clock to check on me. Elite team was also on hand to fetch me anything I wanted. Dr Uckan discharged me the next day and I spent the rest of the week at the patient villa. It was so luxurious and homely. OMG I cannot describe how lush and peaceful it was. Totally the way to recover. I got hooked on spinach and apple smoothies. Had meals tailored to my taste. Team at the villa could not do enough which made me feel a little guilty but they were so caring and genuine people they really made me feel welcome. I actually cried when leaving. I was bruised a lot which took around 2 weeks to go. I still have swelling but was told that this can take a few months to settle. I did walk around the villa site a few times a day and drank lots of water. Anyway my RESULTS!!! I love it. I wish I did this years ago. Will let the before and after photos do the talking ???? BUT before I go. Seriously if you are thinking about surgery abroad. Choose ELITE AFTERCARE. You will not find a better, professional, personal service.

I'm 6 weeks post op as well and I'm experiencing swelling and a tingly sensation when I take off the compression garment. Do you still wear yours?
May 6, 2016
I still wear the garments. Not as much as I should but at least half of the day. I do feel weird without it but I think that's just because I'm used to wearing it. It's not a sensation but more like feeling naked. I am still sore esp when I sit up I can feel burning sensation around my back and sides. I also still have some swelling. My medium garments feel a lot bigger than they were so may switch to a small.

I'm hoping to have a tt and full body lipo aswell in Turkey, Izmir. Did you do all your pre consultations over phone and email? Was the recovery villa private? What did your final cost include? I've read stories that the price doesn't include garment, or medicine, bandages etc. I hope you're healing well.

I consulted with the surgeon via the patient coordinator but did have an option to Skype him. I had full face to face with surgeon prior to surgery when I got there. The aftercare manager was on hand the whole time and escorted me back to the private villa when I was discharged. I didn't pay for anything extra even though I did have something extra done. They were so nice they didn't charge me. Garments, all medicine, transport, food etc basically everything was included in the price. I have got advise from the surgeon since I've been back too on a couple of things I was worried about. Not all places offer this or at least keep their promise. Elite Aftercare truly deliver what they promise. I am going next year for another procedure and will not go anywhere else!
