Ok after lurking for months on here I think it's time that I post my own profile. I am 35, not a very sporty person —I've always been fairly active in bouts and then I would stop any kind of physical activity for months and then start again. I now swim quite regularly and I feel my muscles hard and strong, but you just wouldn't see them bc they're covered in fat :(

I've decided to go for the hi-def Vaser lipo and I'm inclined to do it with Dr Mekle in Poland because of the many reviews I've read here, and the price as well. I wouldn't just choose my surgeon because of the low price of course, but I have to admit it really helps!

I just got a quote from his PA and I find it very reasonable (about £4600) but I am unsure about the comments next to it. The quote is for Vaser lipo to stomach, flanks, butt, inner & outer thighs—fair enough, I've got fat pretty much everywhere—but then Dr Mekle is also suggesting doing knees plus fat transfer to butt. Now, the price is not incredibly higher, but what I don't understand is why should I take fat off my but if I then have to transfer it back?! Do you have any ideas why he would want to do so?

I'm uploading some pics so that you know how bad everything is, at the moment...

Dr Mekle is not only a true professional, but is also very nice on a personal level. He doesn't talk much, which I appreciated as I felt he wasn't trying to wind me around. He will tell you what he can and cannot do, which is very good as he will not give you any fake promises. From what I've seen on the reviews on here, and what I have experienced on my own body, I do believe his best work is the one he performs on men. But he's done a great job on me and I'll never stop being grateful to him. His staff is also fantastic and the girls working at the clinic will always put a smile on your face and cheer you up in your worst moments. Post-op communication could be improved, but all in all I can't complain. I really recommend this doctor and the Centrum Estetiky in Katowice, and the assistance of Natasza at Top Medics Poland.

So did you end up having you're knees done too? I'm curious because I've had inner and outer thighs done and now I feel like I have fat knees. I wish I had thought to ask about that. I go see my ps next week for my 3 month check up and will ask him then. Thanks!

In the end I didn't do my knees, my legs are still swollen now so i cannot say if I should have had them done too, but when my surgeon saw me he said I didn't need to. I hope it's going to be ok because I'm not going to have a second operation!!

Leaving for Poland tomorrow… I'm super nervous and everybody is against this surgery, which doesn't help me calm down. I wish I could fast forward my life by ten days!!

A tiny update on the day before my surgery

gloomy666
I'm in Poland at the flat managed by Top Medics Poland and all is going very well so far. We have landed yesterday afternoon and were promptly collected by Peter, a lovely and experienced driver who didn't hesitate to help us when we asked if he could take us to a supermarket to do some grocery shopping for the upcoming week. By the way, the Lidl branch were we shopped is not too far from the flat, just a 5-minute drive (or 20-25 min walk I guess) but there's a Polish supermarket next to the clinic and a small 24-hour shop.

After getting home Peter introduced us to a lady who will do the cleaning in our flat for us, and left. The flat is well equipped with water bottles, salt/sugar and pepper, dishwashing liquid, soap so don't buy/bring any, and be aware that there's a fridge but there's no freezer, as we ended up buying some meat that we wanted to freeze and we couldn't. Anyway, no big deal.

Peter came back today at 10am to bring me to the hospital to have blood tests. After little more than 10 minutes I was back home. My results will be emailed to the clinic. He then left and he'll be back on my departure date to collect us and bring us back to the airport.

The cleaner is already back and is swiping the floor as I write. No need to as the flat is super clean as we've been here less than 24 hours, but I think it's a nice touch.

I guess the next part of my review will be tomorrow or the day after, since I won't have wifi in the clinic and I'm not even sure I will be feeling well and awake enough to type.

I'm super scared but also excited!!! If you're reading this, please wish me luck.
