Liposuction surgery first hand account before and after experience

My story of Lipo by anonymous,
(Cost of surgery $5,000)

Here is a little background on me and what lead me to want to have Lipo….

I am about four months post-lipo and I thought I would tell you all about my results so far so people  will know what to  I.  I hope this helps most of you. I have a classic pear form with a 36C top, but I have always looked out of proportion.

I’m in my mid 30’s, and have two kids and not a great body under my waist! My measurements before liposuction (how discomforting) were a tight 14 pants, 37 top, 30 waist and 41 hips. I’m 5 foot four

 My procedure consisted of my full thighs inside and out and my knees.  I was under local sedation at the surgeons office. I was ready to be in a lot of pain after the surgery, and I was! I was a speck nauseous the day after the surgery. I’m sure this was due to the sedation but it wasn’t that bad. The day after lipo the pain was pretty awful, but I was able to shower two days later. I was able to drive a car on day four and it went pretty well. I wool Percocet but it did not seem to sever the pain much.

As soon as my plastic surgeon said I could, I switched to Ibuprofen The  pro operative  clothes were pretty tight. I think I should have gone with the bigger size for comfort. I ended up wearing sundresses around the house for most of the time. » Read more: Liposuction surgery first hand account before and after experience
