40 Years Old, Average-build, High Def Vaser for Abs and Flanks - London, GB

ORIGINAL POST

I've turned 40 and decided that I'm not old yet...

I've turned 40 and decided that I'm not old yet :)
Always dreamt of having six-pack, but no matter what I do, the fats in the lower abs and flanks (love-handles) don't go away. I'm not regular on sports, but as I grew up being sportive, I maintained a reasonably good body and now slightly overweight 80Kgs (compared to optimum weight of 73Kgs).

Decided to go to Vaser route, as the more you get older, the less suitable such operation is for your skin to adjust to the lost fat!

I've gone to the private clinic (based on recommendation) and booked an appointment for Vaser high def. I was then introduced to Dr. Hamlet (whom I researched afterwards and found that he's one of the best in the UK for high def Vaser! Luckily).
The appointment was just perfect... He explained, not rushed, answered all questions, went through pictures, expectations, etc. The appointment experience encouraged me to go ahead for the operation (me who had never had a medical procedure in his life!)

Operation date is scheduled for 8th of Feb 2015, so I'll keep you updated with pre/post photos, feelings and experience.

Hi littleleighton :)
I do believe that Vaser can help getting rid of stubborn fat, wherever it is. But my advice is don't go the easy path from the start. Return to exercising, lose weight by eating healthy (no crazy diets) and then see which areas need vaser then you can go for it (if the cost is affordable!).
I haven't seen my results yet to give you a solid answer, but watch this space :)

Procedure date approaching...

Hi all,
As the procedure date is approaching fast, I'm having control on my food (good breakfast, reasonable lunch, and light dinner) and doing more exercises to strengthen my abdomen muscles. I actually already got my top 2-packs, lol :)

Although dr. Hamlet in my consultation session could get a feeling of my 6packs under the ab-fat layer, he asked me to do core-exercises (squats) with a kettlebell. I got a 16Kgs kettlebell and oh, my back muscles screamed for 2 days after just 10 reps! So, I parked the kettlebell for now and did a daily abs program using a mobile phone app called "Caynax A6W" (in android, but it also exists in apple app-store). This app is amazing and I feel after 2 weeks of exercising with it a great result. Every night I squeeze my abs muscles before sleeping to get a feel of the 6 packs (although only 2 are visible), but this is what dr. Hamlet will need to do pre-procedure to draw the lines as he can't guess, especially that the number of packs and the size of each is different from a person to the other!

The 'before' photos will be taken just before the procedure to be up to date, and to be able to compare with the 'after' photos to see the impact of the procedure only, as this might be your interest!

Next update will have the 'before' photos ;-)

UPDATED FROM Julio76
Day of treatment

Procedure day!

Julio76
And the day has come... I was a little bit nervous, but not much...
My appointment was at 2pm, started with reading and signing consent forms, discussing with the antithetic and changing closths, until doctor's arrival (2:45pm). Dr. Hamlet started by drawing lines (based on what he feels about muscles locations, bones, etc.) on lower chest, abs, flanks and back. That process took us to past 3pm (good time investment).

Different doctors have different procedure technique, some prefer light sedation to keep you conscious enough, but Dr. Hamlet prefers to get the patient close to the edge of being unconscious... So, I started lying down on my face (to do the back/flanks maybe) and once I was injected, I felt NOTHING afterwards until they woke me up and I remember NOTHING!

Funny though that I woke up with the 4d compression garment + compression vest over it ON, and tubes and drain bages hanging outside my body (I didn't expect that! However, I don't feel any pain (yet) but I feel super drowsy... getting more aware with each passing minute.

They offered me coffee and biscuits before leaving, but my stomach wasn't ready for it so I vomited them few minutes later when I was getting dressed in the toilet (luckily I vomited in the toilet for not to make any mess), then a friend picked me and drove me home.

Now being at home, still with sensitive stomach, don't feel like eating, so I'm having oranges (eating one piece every 5-10 minutes to go easy on my stomach, but I was soooo thirsity)... Drinking water feels good, especially that I needed to take my antibiotic.

No pain yet, just a feeling of getting out of the gym out of energy! Planning to take the pain killers before sleeping, to prepare for the sedation complete absence and return of full sensation.

I'll update you tomorrow on how I'll feel.

Until then, sayonanra :)
