Liposuction Reviews

!!!Big-volume upper arm lipo 2-week real review, coming in long!!!

I’m bringing my 2-week review. First of all, 2500cc was removed. As you can see from the photos, the sagging from yo-yo dieting and repeated dieting was really severe, and I had lost 15 kg already, but the upper arms were still extremely saggy, and just the upper arms alone weren’t slimming down at all, so I decided on liposuction. I had it done on the arms + armpits + axillary accessory breast tissue, and the doctor said the back/scapular area also had some fat, so it would have been good to do that too, but for now I only did the arm + armpit + accessory breast area! It wasn’t a famous place, and my criteria for choosing the hospital were: 1. A place where the doctor would naturally remove fat in a way that suits my body 2. Chosen based on a single-doctor practice I’ll write down what I noted in my memo every day. Around 11:30, I entered the operating room > they applied disinfectant all over my upper body and covered my legs with something to keep them from moving, then fixed my legs so they wouldn’t move. After that I was anesthetized and don’t remember anything, and I do remember being woken up because they said I had to put on the compression garment. Then I went to the recovery room. Around 2:30 I came to and came out. The anesthesia seems to have worn off quickly. I drank the water they gave me in one shot, walked for about 10 minutes, then took a taxi home. On the day of surgery there was almost no pain, and I could raise my arms well up to about 80 to 90 degrees. I ate the porridge and took the prescribed medicine, then went straight to sleep. Probably because I took the medicine, I felt fine. Day 2: The back of my arms pulled a lot. It wasn’t just muscle soreness, it felt like I fought 17 to 1. Maybe I set the pain scale too high, but when I slept I put cushions on both sides and slept with my arms raised. I woke up every 3 to 4 hours, and my hands got so numb I had to wiggle them around before I could sleep. Day 3: Legend. It doesn’t hurt if I just stay still, but I couldn’t take off the compression garment by myself, so it took about 20 minutes. I just sat there alone until the pain settled and I got used to it. I couldn’t disinfect it, so I called an orthopedic clinic nearby, paid 11,000 won, and got it disinfected there. I wondered if swelling could really be this bad. Days 4-5: I was still waking up from the numbness. The pain had mostly gone, but if I took off the compression garment it really hurt like crazy. The back of the upper arms was tingly and every movement hurt so much I wanted to pass out and have someone wake me up two weeks later. Around one week: The pain gradually disappeared, and the numbness is gone now too. Instead, the fibrosis is getting really hard to the touch, and the bandage allergy was especially severe. I had dressing bandages on, but blisters formed around them, a huge blister formed in my armpit, and it was a mess... Hives-like bumps also came up around the area. I won’t attach the blister photos because they’re too gross... It was summer, so even though I stayed indoors for two weeks with the air conditioner on full blast, it was itchy and drove me crazy. I even woke up from sleep because my armpit was so itchy; The bandage allergy was so severe that I sent the hospital photos of the huge blister and of the stitches, and as the hospital instructed, I ended up ordering medical silicone tape and sterile gauze and putting those on. If your bandage allergy is severe, I recommend silicone tape + sterile gauze. My skin isn’t usually sensitive, so I never even thought about a bandage allergy, but it was really painful. Maybe because it was summer Or maybe my skin is just sensitive. I did this secretly, so I spent two weeks disinfecting by myself and dealing with all sorts of chaos... Honestly, it seems better to have someone around. I think you need at least one person to help. If I’d only had a small amount removed I might not know, but maybe because I had a large volume removed, wearing the compression garment was also too hard, and disinfecting was too hard too. The stitches on the back were out of reach, so I used long tweezers to gently peel off the bandages. I still can’t tie my hair with my arms behind my head, and I still can’t stretch my arms all the way overhead. But I’m so satisfied....... I was wondering if the swelling and hardness would really improve the sagging upper arms, and I’m truly so, so, so satisfied. The biggest purchase of my life had been LASIK, but now it’s changed to upper-arm liposuction. I got the stitches removed today and had radiofrequency treatment, and I liked it so much that I even rented the RF device. If you have questions, ask me. No obligation, no ad, I’m just posting because I’m so satisfied. And also, the hospital... choose one as close as possible. In week 1 I had disinfection + swelling laser, and in week 2 I had stitch removal + radiofrequency. I honestly had no confidence taking the subway with 3 transfers, so I took a taxi, and the taxi fare was no joke. Otherwise, use the car-owner perk if you can
