I ended up with major fibrosis all over my body

ORIGINAL POST

Not So Good Experience

Sadly, my experience was not very good. I paid for vaser and ended up with MAJOR fibrosis all over my body. I compressed and got 10 massages within 2 weeks after my surgery. I am very depressed, and in a lot of pain still due to the fibrosis. It is to my understanding that vaser is suppose to minimize these possible risks. I was told to keep massaging but it does nothing to help. :(

I hope it improves, your arms look painful. What did your Dr say?
i have had an awful outcome from a doc. in AZ whom ruined me, besides being disfigured, my tissues is hard as rock in my back and I am in extreme pain 24/7. my body is lumpy and uneven, he took out too much fat and i have places where the skin caves in. scar tissue everywhere. no one can help me
So there is no way someone can go in an break up the scar tissue? Also, I think in the wrong hands the laser can burn you and I wonder if it was done too close to the skin and too aggressively? You might need an attorney perhaps? Especially if the pain limits your ability to do what you did before. So sorry this happened to you. You can easily see the path the lipo wand took and the many depressions it left.
Hi, have you tried cupping massage? I also had Vaser and started to develop lumps and bumps (even if I compressed, had professional massages and massaged myself a lot). But I have started cupping massaging (I see my massage therapist twice a week and I also learned to do it myself at home) and it works wonders! I cup massage every day, about two-three times, it is very time consuming but really worth it. After just one week, the early fibrosis has disappeared almost completely and the results are amazing, everything started to look very smooth. From my experience, cupping massage really works to break up the scar tissue. It may feel painful at first, but more you do it, better it will feel and after a while it becomes relaxing. Hope this helps! Wishing you the best with your recovery!
I had a botch job from Dr. Torabi in Paradise Valley AZ. I don't know how to post pictures but I am going to try and warn as many people as possible not to go to him.
