WORTH IT$5,000
I'm 5ft 4in tall and I was a former gymnast for my entire life. I have a large amount of muscle on me, but my thighs never slim down. I am hoping to have a small ( half an inch) gap between my thighs. I am hoping for a leaner look. I want a conservative amount taken out and I am very nervous about the outter lipo because I do not want a square butt or to look like a man. Also, very nervous that if I gain any weight years later that it will come back in my stomach ( a place I don't hold much fat) or somewhere unsightly like my ankles. I'm pretty scared! What are your suggestions??

What??? Your body is pure perfection !!! Whatever you do, please be careful of lipo on your hips. I did that mistake and the surgeon lipoed away my curves. 4 years later got them back though. Please reconsider that part of your surgery.

Ok I agree i'm going to not let him touch the hips and just do the inner thigh and very very small amount I totally agree with you I think that it makes a woman look boxy !

Looks awesome. We look almost identical but I'm age 47 next week. I will try non-invasive first if I do anything, but this gives me hope! Thanks.

Wow you have an amazing body!
I had Vaser Lipo last Sunday on my upper and lower abs and flanks. At the moment I can’t see any difference but I think it’s swelling, was you in the same frame of mind in the first week?

Yes it’s swelling, don’t take off the garment! I was very swollen too ! It will be so much better after 4 weeks.

“Were you” sorry bad English. I’ve kept the garment on all the time expect showers and MLD.

Day of treatment
Today is the day!
I'm much more nervous than when I did my breast augmentation. I think it's pms attributing to this feeling, since I'm due in 2 days. We decided to just do a minimal amount of lipo in the inner thighs only, as the lateral sides don't have a lot of fat. Wish me luck!!!!

Night of surgery!
My surgery started late, but I hung out and read magazines. My mom and boyfriend were with me. I was feeling fine and had an IV in me. The surgery lasted 1.5 hours and was inner thigh lipo only. I woke up feeling more back pain than anything, which I thought was strange! It felt like menstrual cramps, but makes sense since I'm due to have it tomorrow. I wasn't in excessive pain when I awoke, but had normal sensations of being under general anesthesia ( loopy, stomach slightly queasy, and weak). I waited for about 45-1 hour and left was discharged. When we got back to the house. My mom and her friend is a nurse came over and my boyfriend was with me so I felt okay. I was very nervous of embolisms as I still am so I didn't go straight to bed, instead I walked around little by little and when laying I kept noting my ankles. I wasn't in pain, but more so stiff and tired. I woke up almost every hour to use the ladies which was annoying but good in my opinion because I had to walk. I suggest you have someone with you from the beginning of getting up to helping you to the toilet. My boyfriend helped me, I squatted instead of sitting down, which I also suggest if you can because it didn't hurt as much. Make sure to hold someone or something. I wasn't dizzy per se, but more so weak. I have no idea how much fat he took out because I left the center late at night and the nurse didn't have his notes, but Dr. Behmand did my breasts five years ago, I trust him and believe he did a good job so far!

Forgot to mention I took oxycodone at the hospital and when I got home last just one hydrocodone for discomfort.
