I researched several doctors and consulted with several. I found reviews and credentials for Dr. Liland online. He was very direct and to the point and answered all the questions I had which I appreciated very much. I read through several of his patients' reviews and felt that it was the best option to choose him as my PS for liposuction. I have my pre-op appointment tomorrow and although I'm a little nervous, I'm very excited as well! For those that have been through this type of procedure before, please feel free to offer any advice or tips. I would really appreciate it! I'm so glad that I came across Real Self while doing my research because it has been very beneficial and I have been amazed at before and after photos along with other's stories and journeys. I look forward to sharing mine as well!

My pre op appointment went well and it was basically signing paperwork, going over details of what to expect before and after the procedure, getting my prescriptions, and going over any questions I had. I picked up my prescriptions today at my local pharmacy so I'm ready for Tuesday...well my meds are ready for Tuesday that is.

Day of treatment

I did it! Day 1

Surgery was at 8 am this morning. Staff & Dr. Liland were all great & made me feel very comfortable. I felt no pain due to the general anesthesia. It was over before I knew it! I made it home & did get nauseous after eating so needless to say I did vomit a little. But that was it. My worst pain has been about a 7 but pain pills quickly bring that down. Soreness is what I mostly feel. I can feel myself very swollen & tender to the touch through my undergarment. I've been taking naps here & there & getting up to walk or move around but overall feel ok today. Here are some before & after pics. I will be sure to post more pics as my progress continues! I'm so excited!
