Currently wearing my compression garment. Hope it helps smooth out lumpiness that I have in my flanks. One roll significantly reduced, the other is still there but I can live with that. I am only two weeks post surgery so hope to see even more improvement as swelling reduces and time passes.

I think you look great. I am sure in time, everything will smooth out nicely. I am so glad you were able to have a happy ending. Thank you for sharing your story and pictures.

did the lipo of your banana roll cause any drop of your butt cheeks? this is my fear!
March 1, 2018
It did not but my surgeon was conservative with the lipo for this reason. I also expressed this concern prior to surgery.

He was so conservative that the banana rolls are still there just smaller. I may try sculptsure on the larger roll. I have also put on 3 to 5lbs which could be affecting my final result.

Have you heard anything about using Kybella on banana rolls? I'm going to look into it. Are you at least happy with the result? I've read that it is impossible to get rid of the banana roll completely.

I'm going in for a cool sculpting consult in a few weeks. I was thinking I'd go the sculptsure route, but I'm being told they are seeing inconsistencies with this treatment (irregularities) and coolsculpting is being used to try to fix it. I'll see what she says.

I am confused as to why this is marked as "not worth it". Your review and pictures give me hope for successful lipo of my banana rolls and saddlebags.

Rolls Gone!

Olivia84
Just wanted to share that the lipo was successful. ...85-90 percent of roll gone and still in the swollen phase of recovery.

No butt drop, very pleased with my surgeon. Can tell he was very cautious.

Pics to come soon.

I am really happy for you. I can't wait to see your pictures. I am wanting to get rid of my banana rolls, but am terrified of lipo. Do you have to wear compression shorts for a few weeks? What is the post-treatment plan?
October 25, 2017
So I wore ace bandages around my thighs for the first week after. The pain is not that bad but more awkward and uncomfortable.

In now in my compression garment that i will wear almost 24/7 for the next 2 weeks.

My legs actually feel a little worse the second week but its all tolerable. Its like super sore muscles that are tender.

Going to try lipo

Not enough of a change in rolls size. Hard to really tell if there was any size change.

Going to have lipo with fat transfer to breast. Super worried about butt drop. Keeping my fingers crossed!

How many treatments did you have done on the banana roll section? I've read it can take up to 3 treatments. Oh you are very brave to do lipo. I would be terrified to do it on the banana rolls. I have researched extensively on this matter. Please be extremely selective on who you choose. Your buttocks can definitely drop and then you could be far worse off. This is why I am afraid to do it. If I did move forward, I'd find someone with an impeccable track record and with lots of pictures. There was a video on it from Dr. Anthony Youn on The Doctors. You should google it. You need a very conservative dr. Good luck to you!

Thanks. My butt dropping fears are a real concern that I have expressed to my ps and plan to reiterate at my next appointment. My ps has a good track record and has promised to be conservative with his fat removal from the area

I wish you the best. I hope you get the results you desire. Conservative is a great approach.
