WORTH IT
I had my first procedure with Gavin Chan on Thursday. It was lipo of my entire back side (ankles, calves, saddle bags, waist, back and arms) with fat transfer to butt and lips. He said he removed around 4L and put 400ml in each cheek. I'm very sore right now. Taking regular pain medication. I read 4L is quite a lot.

The plan is to do it in 2 stages since calves shouldn't be done at the same time as the circumferential thigh, due to blood clots. In 3 months time we will do my front side (inner thigh, front of thigh, stomach, jawline) and then fat transfers depending on how things look. And I plan to do some laser resurfacing and jawline botox.

I was very excited about this procedure. In the beginning I was only interested in doing my cankles but after consultations with different doctors I decided to do my whole body. I measured in at 162cm and 68kgs. I have a curvy pear shape and am trying to get an hourglass shape. :)

I had some consultations with some other doctors including Dr Tavakoli in Sydney. I felt Dr Chan was the best fit for me. He has more experience doing calves and had a comprehensive plan for my body type. Very impressed with the care I received at the clinic. They had everything organised including pickups, garments, massages (next week) and they organised a carer to stay with me overnight.

The procedure was pretty full on. They had to position me prior to being put to sleep and I felt very exposed in front of a room full of people. It was professional but kinda like woah... I stayed at the clinic til late when the carer came to collect me. Lots of blood and leaking fluids everywhere.

Feeling confident. Just trying to distract myself til I feel better.

I'll post more photos eventually. The incisions around the ankle leaked but he stitched them up. He closes all of the incisions.

You're looking really good! Interested in what this costs as you're having so much lipo I had a fat transfer in LA and would like more projection so have so considered additional lipo to tummy/flanks and possibly back with more fat added to the top of my butt with either dr chan or dr lanzer
