Hi all,

I am booked into have vaser lipo on my outer thighs on the 17th April. I am very excited but also rather nervous. I have decided to only tell my boyfriend as yet as I am not sure that a majority of my friends would understand so I think I will tell them after if they notice.

I am a regular gym goer (I try to go every week morning) but no matter how clean I eat or how many weights I lift I just cant shift the excess weight from my bottom/saddlebag area so although surgery is quite a drastic decision I honestly think that it is now my only option. I have hated this part of my body for years and will be so happy to wave it goodbye!! I really believe this has had a massive effect on my confidence (or lack of) since I can remember) I love my curves but am just not happy with my out of proportion look (I am a size 8/10 on top but a 10/12 on bottom). I am really hoping this will take me down to a comfortable size 10 all over :). I haven't got the nicest legs and never will but I can live with them ;).

I have found this site really useful when making decisions and doing research so thought I'd share my story and write a little before, during and after to help others with their decision making. I have chosen Dr Mike Comins to do the procedure at the private clinic in Knightsbridge London. I have paid £2,600 + £70 quid(!!) for the compression garment. I have been told this is calf length - sexy not! Does anyone know why it needs to be calf length? Will this be obvious under clothes??

Has anyone else had just their outer thighs done? How painful was it? I wil be having local anaesthetic (sedation is an additional £500 which i just cant afford) What was your recovery time like? I am planning to take about 10days off after but will return quicker if I can? I'd love to hear your stories and see before and after pics if you have them. I will be happy to post before and after pics too. Roll on the 18th April!! [RS bleep]

Sorry one thing I didn't touch upon was my consultation. I only saw one surgeon which I may now regret a bit but I found Dr Comins a nice genuine person who is just interested in getting the best results. I initially wanted to have inner and outer thighs + knees but he advices me that th skin on my inner thighs would jut appear 'wrinkly' and that I didn't really need my knees doing. I was therefore reassured that it wasn't just about sales as the cost was lower than I was expecting it might be :). I originally saw him on This Morning and was impressed with the results.

Anyway, I would recommend anyone doing their research to have a list of questions to ask and go through each and every one. I was nervous (especially when I literally had to just drop my trousers in front of him) and forgot half my questions! Make sure you do your research and don't put money down until you are as sure as you can be that you trust the surgeon. Aghh wish I could have it done tomorrow!

Lovely guy, seems down to earth and honest. Good reputation + expensive which I take as a good sign in these circumstances. He apparently does 2vaser ops per day..!
