Naturally bottom-heavy.. (lower-body obesity) I worked out, hiked, cycled, did personal training, swam, did every possible thing, but only my lower body stayed bulky, my saddlebags wouldn’t go away, and after worrying and worrying, it’s already been 7 years since I had lower-body lipo.. I have no idea why I went through all that suffering, spent that money, and left scars. All I can think is that I wasted money and time
I’ll get straight to the point..
· Criteria for choosing the hospital: Apgujeong, famous, cost-effective, doctor with a lot of surgical experience, whether there was an event promotion, many reviews (though probably all of them were ads)
· Don’t you lose weight as soon as you get liposuction?: You don’t.. I don’t remember the exact reason, but they said that during the liposuction procedure there’s a step where they inject medication to swell? the fat cells. So even though they suctioned out the fat, because of that medication my lower body swelled up tight and actually looked fatter than before liposuction, and my whole body hurt like I’d been beaten up, so exercise to reduce swelling quickly? I absolutely couldn’t do it. Yep. I could barely walk.. Even lying still was painful because my whole body hurt
· Once that swelling medication drains out, don’t you get slim?: You do get temporarily slimmer.. only on the inside.... The outer skin sagged down like boiled chicken skin, like famous overseas liposuction side-effect cases, with the skin moving separately, and even though I was in my 20s, my skin became like an old woman’s ㅠㅠ Even when touching it with my hand, it felt like old-woman skin.. but even without touching it, just walking, or even when pants brushed against my legs, I could feel it. That the skin on my lower body was moving separately.. When you lose weight through healthy dieting with exercise, it comes off slowly, so the skin gradually shrinks along with it without losing elasticity, but when only the fat is forcibly suctioned out, only the skin is left loose I’m lucky I didn’t have a boyfriend at the time,, surgery behind your boyfriend’s back? That’s just nonsense. It took so long for my skin to return to normal that it felt like forever, really.. I was devastated
· I heard that once you get liposuction, that area gains less weight?: Yeah, no. It may be like that temporarily, but I still have lower-body obesity..! Even if I diet endlessly, only my lower body is still bulky
· Scars: The scars where the liposuction cannula went in show absolutely no sign of disappearing.. Even after 7 years, there are lumpy scars like skin tumors all over my lower body. At least the hyperpigmentation disappeared, so they can pretend to be warts now, but for years, black lumpy scars were raised here and there on my pale legs
· Side effects: I got uneven contour steps on my thighs. Like stairs.. layered. I guess the doctor only had flashy ads and wasn’t actually that skilled... Maybe they couldn’t suction it evenly during liposuction ㅋㅋㅋ Before lipo, even if I had lower-body obesity, it was natural-looking lower-body obesity, but now anyone can see it’s lower-body obesity from failed liposuction. I have no idea what on earth they did..
That’s it for my review If I had known about this community earlier, I might have recorded everything in detail from the beginning, thinking I would write a review.. I regretted a lot that I should have looked into it more..
