I am 33 year old female, 170 height and 67 kg in weight. I've been relatively slim and fit all my life, however my thighs and bottom always tended to be lager then I wanted. After pregnancy, the skin on my stomach stretched and I developed fat deposits on my sides. Regardless of daily exercise and intense dieting, I managed to shift only modest amounts of fat. Yes, I did get slimmer on my face and upper body, including breasts (unfortunately) but not really in the areas I wanted to.

So, these are the reasons why I decided to have Vaser lipo done.
I've been doing lots of research and reading reviews on this procedure which I found useful, that's why I decided to post my own review and I hope somebody will find it helpful.

So, I had a Vaser lipo done on my inner & outer thighs, bottom and flanks. In addition, I had fat injections into my buttocks to modify its shape from the "square" to more "round" . The procedure took place on the 19th December 2015 with DR Grant Hamlet.

I was administered twilight anaesthesia and pain relief injections in the areas where the procedure was performed. It took the plastic surgeon about four hours to do the job.

Once the procedure was accomplished, nurses dressed me up in a tight garment with quite heavy armour -like padding underneath it. I had a drain tube to my back, it's a standard procedure to drain excess of fluid.
I went home about 30 min after the procedure was finished.

In terms of pain: The lipo procedure was not painful, however as I was only half-conscious I do not remember a lot. The fat injections into my buttocks I found quite uncomfortable but manageable.

The first night I slept for about 7 hours, I felt quite achy every time I tried to move in bed. Pain relief tablets helped me a lot.
I leaked quite a bit of fluid through the catheter. Bruising and swelling appeared the same day after the procedure. I could move around the house ok.

Gosh you really look amazing - Can I ask how much you paid for this? I'm just trying to work out a rough idea of I wanted to get 4 areas done house much it would be. I'd really like my knees, inner thighs, under my bum and lower abdomen done. I have about a 5k budget, do you think it would be possible?. Thanks.

Hi, thank you for your comment. I paid 8000 GBP for the procedure, this cost also includes fat transfer. I did the procedure in London.

I think you look great, but do you think it was worth the money.... It's a huge amount of money to spend on myself as I have 3 children and I don't want to regret it if you know what I mean...

Hi, thank you for your message. Merry xmas. it is a difficult question to answer as plastic surgery is a matter of perspective.
I personally think its worth the money as there were some features in my hips and bum I did not like very much. Dr hamlet made my body look better. But it was not a weight loss operation in any way, it was a procedure that improved contours of my low body.
It depends on what results you would like to achieve. Vaser does not perform miracles, for example, my plastic surgeon told me that my bum could not be converted into Kate moss's bum simply because my body frame and muscle structure are different (Its just an example, i do not really like bum of Kate moss).-))
It's better to see a plastic surgeon and to discuss all the pros and cons.

2nd day after Vaser lipo

marisha201
Today is the day number 2. I am still quite swollen a bruised. I went to have my lipo-massage and also had my garment adjusted. I feel a bit better now.

I've seen myself in the mirror. The buttocks shape is definitely changed and looks more round instead of square.
Flanks are gone and I have my thin waist back like it was before pregnancy!
Thighs are still swollen but I could see that they became smaller on top.

I am still on pain relief medication and the garment is uncomfortable to wear. I also have to be very careful sitting or lying on my bottom due to fat injections. (Injected fat cells need time to grow into my body and be rapped around by blood vessels). So I either stand or sit on my knees or lie on my stomach.
