About 3 Years After Liposuction

It’s already been about 3 years since I had upper-body liposuction. I only really remember being told on the day of surgery that it was a combined procedure, and then the bruising and soreness at the beginning that made me groan; the rest is all so vague it feels like a distant past. Back then, whenever I thought about how much I suffered from the pain, I sometimes wondered why I even did it, but now that I look back, I’m sure it was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made in my life. What I’m most satisfied with is that even when my weight goes up a bit or drops a bit, my upper-body line doesn’t become dull like before. Lately I’ve been eating late-night snacks a lot and have gained a little weight, but if this were the old me, my upper arms and back would have bulged out and I wouldn’t even have dared to wear fitted clothes or sleeveless tops in summer. But because the number of fat cells itself has decreased, even when I gain weight, much less fat accumulates in my upper body and my overall fit still stays slim. As 3 years have passed, all the swelling that needed to subside has gone away and the line has fully settled, so it feels much more natural. Every time I look in the mirror, I can feel how much lighter my upper-body line has become, and my satisfaction is really high. Even if I had to go through the pain again and go back to that time, I think I would do it again without hesitation.
