I’ve been looking into getting lipo for two y...
I’ve been looking into getting lipo for two years now, but I didn’t get serious until I realized I had the money to do it this year. I decided to get it done before winter so that I can have time to heal before summer 2018(3-6months). I had a few set backs, but was finally able to plan days off and get my mom to take care of me after the surgery. I didn’t want anyone to know about it not even my mom but I needed someone to drive me home so that was that. The second person was my bf I only told him for obvious reasons I couldn’t hide that lol I didn’t even tell my best friend because I was afraid she would judge me. 3months prior to me getting lipo I was going to the gym and I completely changed my diet for the best. I lost 10lbs going vegetarian on weekdays and eating meat on weekdays. I love meat so this was hard but I managed it. I got my surgery done on the October 17th on a Tuesday. after they gave me the twilight IV I just remembered saying “wow it does feel like I’m drunk”, I remember getting poked with the lipo tube and then I blacked out I don’t even remember getting dressed. I got home feeling numb and bloated ????a very strange combination. The first night was very uncomfortable and painful only because I like sleeping on my sides and stomach???????????. I bought the generic brand of Percocet (taking one barely worked). I stayed in bed all day for 3days straight. Going to the bathroom hurt like hell only because Standing up felt like my stomach was ripping open and my guts were going to fall out onto the floor???? I could barely sit up. I tried to go to work on the 3rd day after getting lipo but I wasn’t up for it so I pushed myself for the 4th day and worked all day. It wasn’t until my last hour that I decided to take 2generic Percocets. The following week was better and I was back to my regular schedule I had to act like I didn’t just get surgery last week and act normal. Thank god I had a 9 steel bone waist shaper it helped a lot. I also made an excuse at work and said I hurt my Back. ????????????????

Dr. Yousefi and his staff are kind and patient. They made me feel comfortable and worked with my schedule. Now I do want to say no one really talked to me about the garments I should get to shape me out I was just glad I watched a lot of YouTube reviews on lipo after care. I really wished he also talked to me about lymphatic massages, fajas, foam boards, and etc.i had to figure that out on my own, but any questions I did have they were quick to help.
