You look great already--so this is obviously just contouring for you. I expect they won't be removing very much, since you're already so thin, but just narrowing you out a little. Most people with so little to do are very pleased with their results. Just remember that it's okay to tell them that something hurts. They'll add more of the numbing fluid :). For me, when things hurt, it was still suuuuper far away--like it was mostly hurting someone else. I said 'Ow', and then apologized, and said that sometimes things hurt, and you just have to say ow, but it's not important. (Obviously, I was quite severely drugged ;)). Anyway, my take away was extremely positive. I found it very fun and relaxing, despite the pain! People who need to remove several liters of fat will go through more trauma and a longer procedure, but doctors also know how to deal with that for the most part. You will be fine--you've had children :D. It's nowhere near that kind of pain, I promise!


Hi, and welcome to the community! Congratulations on getting to do this for yourself :). Without a picture, it's hard to know what you're looking at, but do you feel like your doctor is on board with you, in terms of how aggressive you want her to be?
Makes perfect sense. I mean, it's still surgery! Nervousness is only to be expected. Oh, I see you posted photos, let me go look!
