4wks update

Hi guys ok so it's now a little over 4wks post op. So far I'm very pleased with the results however there have been some minor setbacks. Because I'm very tall and the areas treated was quite large I have suffered from quite a lot of fluid meaning my true results might take longer to show. However I absolutely love the direction things are now going in. I opted for 11 MLD treatments in total partially due to this. I am seeing dr Hamlet again on the 9th March. This is due to some swelling under the right arm known as roping. Something that again is not too uncommon but I'm assured is nothing to worry about. It all sounds quite bad but honestly it's not. I'm just trying to give a very detailed and informative review covering all aspects good and bad.

Grant has advised I continue to wear the 4D vest along with my compression at least until the seroma's calm down along with swelling. I am of course uploading some pics to this review and will try and update again very soon.

3wks update and also had follow up with Dr Hamlet. He was happy with his work and told me that things would be very much up and down in terms of how things look. He advised I continue to wear my 4D vest at least for another week possibly longer if I'm still getting a lot of fluid build up. He of course asked me how I was feeling and if I was happy with the results so far. It is still very much early days and I know things will continue to improve. Indeed he confirmed this too. Overall so far so good I'm very happy and the staff have all been amazing. One slight concern I did have was my weight and size. Although I look much much smaller and thinner with a much better shape my actual size has not yet changed. This is apparently 100% normal and indeed a lot report a temporary gain in weight and size due to swelling and fluid used during surgery. He did however say the first thing you will notice is how things fit. This is most definitely true as I can now where much much smaller sizes.

Two weeks review plus draining

Unfortunately I was not able to update last week so having to post 2wk and 3wk review together. Although I will try to post separate for easier reading.

The results are really starting to come in now. However it really does change from one day to the next. The tissue in the treated areas has now gone very hard. It's a really strange feeling unfortunately I have had several seromas ( fluid build up ) that has required manual draining on a regular basis. But this although not very nice is not too painful and you certainly feel better afterwards. I will attempt to upload pics and a video of this along with my update pics.

Provider Review

Dr Grant Hamlet
  • 12 Jan 2016

As Mentioned above I have yet to have my surgery as it is booked for thursday 28/01/16 with Dr Grant Hamlet via The Private Clinic Leeds. So Please make sure you check back then as I will update regularly. I will also be trying to do a video blog via youtube and if allowed will upload a link to this when I have done that too. Ok so as I have said I have been to several appointments with surgeons something I would strongly advise. Even if you have a good idea of who your preferred surgeon is. well I did my research and ended up with a bit of a dilemma Selston clinic or The Private Clinic. I first met with Sorena from the Private Clinic Leeds a truly lovely lady with a good ear and a truly caring approach. She instantly made me feel at ease as I was understandably nervous and somewhat clueless to this relatively new procedure. However in minutes I felt much more relaxed and hopeful of what can be achieved. She Gave me a quote and this is where it did get a little scary, ( I must admit I cried ) Again though she brought me back down to earth and said I know we are not the cheapest but what we can offer you and the surgeons experience is really what your paying for. She also advised that I speak to dr Hamlet as he would be able to give me a much better idea of what he can do the time he would need and what is best for me. With that in mind the price might also reflect his changes as everyone is different in how much time they need so therefore how much it will cost. So the day of my consultation came with Dr Grant Hamlet, He was in surgery earlier that day so was running a little behind a small gripe but then I thought if it was me in theatre I would not want him rushing to finish. Not too long passed and I finally got too meet Dr Hamlet first impressions was poor guy looks knackered lol we went into his room where we discussed my options he showed me some pictures of Vaser Hi def and Mid def we decided after some time that More of a mid to Hi def would best suit me as I wanted it to be more athletic than body builder. I explained I wanted it too look natural and that I wanted to be able to do some work myself both prior and after. With this in mind he said I should achieve a mid-hi def look Mid where he does it and where I have added to the muscle more of a hi def look will be visible. Summery just over 2wks to go and I'm a bag of nerves. Im incredibly excited but also very apprehensive about whats to come. Please check back after the 28/01/16
