3rdTime Around: Whole Body Revision Liposuction in Medan - Indonesia

Thighs Revision & double chin lipo & fat transfer to mid face/ 06.06.2017

Cynammon
WORTH IT$7,300
So I had my thighs revision on the 6th. Arrived in Medan at 09:00 and had surgery on the same day at 14:00. This was more painful than the abdomen due to the adhesive scars. I was not prepared for the ordeal, I even contemplated just having one thigh done and doing the left thigh next time. 5 hours later & 2 litres fat removed from both thighs, I was glad I perservered. Dr. Arthur did a fantastic job, not just correcting, but also sculpting my thigh muscles and my knees so that they look athletic. Hands down the best liposuction ever.
What impresses me most about the clinic is that they operate on only one patient per day, not like other clinics where you have 2-3 surgeries on the same day.
Thighs are still very swollen but looking good. Will post the result in September/October when I do the upper body revision.

Wow! What an improvement!
July 6, 2017
Thank You! I think that it will look even better when I have done the arms and upper body.

Wishing you the best of luck! So happy for you getting things corrected. Bad lipo is the worst thing and I've been contemplating whether to fix my lower back and hip area of leave alone in fear of ending up worse. Please take good care of yourself and let me know how things progress!

Thx dear. He did an excellent job correcting my lower back. I had alot of dents and scarring in the area and he got rid of them. I am positive that after he does the upper body it will look even better. The only thing that bothers me is the loose skin on the lower back (U can see in the pics) otherwise I love the results. Will keep you updated.

Hi~ I will be having abdominal lipo + breast grafting in a week with Dr Arthur! Am getting nervous! Any advice?
September 22, 2017
Hi. Is this your first round of lipo? I had revision and it was painful because of the scarring but I noticed that the areas where I had no previous lipo were not painful. The nurse is really sweet and gives you plenty of tips and advise. Good luck
September 23, 2017
yes, first time! bit nervous about being awake during the procedure. do you remember much?
September 23, 2017
Lolz. Yep I remember everything but the nurse told me that most patients do not remember much. I had revision lipo of the abdomen and although I had alot of scarring I did not have alot of pain. The second time I had revision lipo of the thighs and that was hell. Don`t worry, this being your first round of lipo, I am sure the pain will be bearable. I have seen many reviews online and most ladies say the thighs and calves lipo were very painful but rarely the abdominal lipo. Just think of the results - and they will good. He is a very talented Dr. , the best I have seen for liposuction. HTH. Feel free to ask anything. Can PM me if U like.

Pics 8 months post Abdominal Revision

Cynammon
This is the result after 8 months. Notice that he sculpted the front, sides and lower back. I now have a waistline:) Unfortunately the fat transfer he did on the abdomen did not survive so I will be doing another fat transfer in September/October when I do my arms revision. Hope that all goes well next time. Overall a huge improvement from before and worth it!

After 8 months non of the fat survived ?
July 6, 2017
Unfortunately. We used the fat he harvested from my stomach and I think this was not the best quality fat to use for transfers. He actually advised me to use fat from the arms or thighs (he uses this for BBL and breast augmentation) but I insisted on using the fat from my stomach. Didn`t want anything going to waste :) I think next time around it will be better because there was a lady who had fat transfered to inner thighs to correct lipo done elsewhere and it looked good.
July 6, 2017
Thank a lot for responding. Is it possible for the fat to grow again in the stomach like befor ?
July 6, 2017
I don`t think so. The fat is used to fill in the scars that cause the dents and lumps. The fat actually smoothens out the scars and in cases such as ours where too much fat has been taken out I think the area looks better with more fat.
July 6, 2017
Infact immediately after the fat transfer to the abdomen & two weeks later, my stomach area looked fantastic, then the fat began to disappear slowly and I was left with loose skin and dents especially around my belly button area. So I am positive that after 1 or 2 more sessions of fat transfer the results will be good.

Thank you very much my dear for helping me and gives me strength to have hope

No problem. You check out his videos on you tube. Just type in elixir de vie. He has hundreds of videos of many procedures.
