I’m 5 months post-op from liposuction on my arms + accessory breasts + scapular area. I was about 157.7 cm / 50 kg, and even now my height and weight are about the same, only fluctuating by 1-2 kg. They only removed about 600 cc of pure fat, and honestly there hasn’t been a huge change in my arm thicknessㅠ.. It’s more like the bulging line in the back was cleaned up,, and even now I don’t feel confident wearing sleeveless tops. Still, compared to before, the line definitely looks cleaner!
My legs are generally thin and my fat tends to be concentrated only on my upper body, so people usually see me as thinner than my actual weight. Maybe it’s because I’m sensitive and pay close attention to it.. but they’re not completely bony arms..; haha
When I was looking around, I read tons of reviews and filtered out brokers.. I worried for 2-3 months just about choosing the clinic because I was scared of side effects. I chose this clinic with safety as the top priority. Since my body was originally around normal to slim, I had expected bony arms, so I am a little disappointed with the result. I’m also considering whether to get a retouch, but I don’t have the confidence to get on the operating table againㅠㅠ
Still, they focus on safety, the director is really, really meticulous, and the consultant was kind too, so the surgery was carried out safely without any major issues.
There are none of the side effects I was worried about, just some scars still remaining? I have none of the side effects like unevenness, dents, or hard lumps. An acquaintance of mine got arm liposuction at ㅇㄹ around the same time as me, and to my eye, honestly, her arms don’t look quite straight? There are some areas that look slightly dented. But her previously thick arms became that much thinner, so she herself is satisfied. I guess there are pros and cons.
I have four scars in total. They are small, but there is hyperpigmentation, and they show when I wear sleeveless tops. It bothered me more than I expected. I barely applied scar ointment.. but anyway, I think time is the best medicine for scars.
If an acquaintance said they were going to do it, I think I would recommend it. There are that few bad reviews, they focus on safety, and both the director and consultant were kind. I’m considering whether to additionally do my abdomen^^;
