About me.
35 Y Male.
Not fat but pockets of podgy fat on my belly. 34 inch trouser size and the belly measured around 36 inches. Does not look fat with my clothes on but the belly and moobs make it unsightly with my top off. Feel conscious swimming and in the sauna etc.
D Day
I arrived at the clinic an hour before the procedure. I filled out all the paperwork and signed my life away. I was given a relaxant and changed into my dressing gown and shorts.
I went into the the surgery room and it lasted about 3 hours.
The initial pricks were painful and once the tumescent fluid was in it was numb. I could feel my belly swell up and get stiff. The probe was pushed in and i could feel the ultrasound and feel a ringing in my ears. I think the effect of the sedative wore off really quick.
I could see the fat being sucked out and in the tall jar. 5 liters of tumescent fluid was used and that was about the maximum i could be given. 1.8 liters of fat was removed in total.
Once the surgery was done. i stood up and pressed the stomach to get more fluid out. it was a lot of fluid oozing out. The stomach did not feel fat but less flabby but i could see a lot of skin.
I was put into a my suit and a large jacket as made by sticking thick sanitary napkins together. It felt like a bullet proof vest.
All bundled i was put my tracks and tee on and made my way to the doctors office to discuss post op care.
I was given pain killers which are a life saver. I was advised to sleep on my stomach to use body weight to ease out the remaining fluid. i slept comfortably on the floor. I could not see any fluid leak any where are the pads are doing a wonderful job.
There was discomfort everytime a new area was probed and as he got close to the muscles. I would like to add that its not as painless and simple as its advertised or people make it out to be. I think you need money, time, will power and guts to have this done. Its not a procedure for the faint hearted.
Day 1
Woke up in the morning and feel a bit swollen. Its not yet 24 hours to take the packing off to see how it looks. It looked disgusting soon after the surgery and not the fantastic result i was hoping. I went for middef as i did not want a fake looking body. I think it will be a few weeks until the skin shrinks and moulds itsself to my new shape. I have taken ample pain killers (Codine) and the anti biotic.
Dreading to take the garment off later this evening for the first shower and clean up.
More to follow and photos soon as i am feeling fit.

Day 1 - The First Shower
VaserFanJuly 12, 2013
It was time for my bath. I took the garments off and dreaded to at myself in the mirror. The inner vest was soaked with the fluids but not a drop at leaked. I could see a flat lower abs but wrinkled skin. The first look reminded me of a large raisin. Behind the wrinkles i could see a the flat stomach.
I showered up and used the foam packing and the compression vest.
Put the everlast black belts ontop to pack it again.
There was very little fluid retention. It was very sore. Every single touch sent pains though the body.

Day 2- The first massage
VaserFanJuly 12, 2013
I went to the doctor today to have a review and the first ultrasound massage and MLD massage.
The doctor was impressed with progress and said that it was the start of the journey to a flat stomach.
I cant wait now for the flanks to be done in a month.
The massage was a killer. It is needed to kick start the healing process and enhance the cuts and ensure drainage takes place. It looked a lot better than the previous day of mangled stomach.
I think sleeping on my stomach for 2 days has really helped get all the fluid out. Im not leaking and the holes will now heal. there were no drains inserted.
The doctors did an amazing job of the massage and review. Im due back for a review in a week. And mid week massages.
I have decided to stop the painkillers as it causes constipation and the pain has subsided to a more bearable level.
