Hehe, first, for convenience, I'll write casually. If you've seen my posts, you'll know I was almost at the level of a LAMS evangelist, and most of my posts were about being really, really satisfied.. um, now that it's been 3 weeks, I want to talk about my arms that have gone back to square one..ㅜㅜ
I had often seen posts saying not to expect dramatic effects from LAMS, but I thought those posts or reviews only applied to people with muscular arms.
I'm skinny-fat without muscle, and my upper arms were about 29 cm in circumference, so my arms looked pretty bulky. I was sure on my own that I'd be extremely satisfied if I got LAMSㅋㅋ My skin texture is also really soft, and I barely bruise (I really barely bruised), so I was shouting, this is seriously a huge success..! and^^... got the procedure. Um, I overestimated myself and everything about LAMS^^.. Actually, it's definitely not that there was no effect! As you can see in the photos, the bulky feeling is much reduced, and honestly the line was cleaned up well. But it didn't come out as much as I expected + as much as the arm line they said would come out during the consultation..ㅠㅠ
During the consultation, they said even just cleaning up the fat around the upper back/arm area would reduce my arm circumference a lot and basically give me bony arms blah blah~ that I should wait until two months~ but since week 2, the swelling has stayed the same. The bruising is all gone and my weight also went down, so it doesn't seem like major swelling. (The firmness/lumpiness and arm circumference are all the same!! I'll watch the progress even after two months, and if anything changes, I'll come back and write a postㅜㅜ)
It seems like only minor swelling is left, but the back bulge is still there..ㅠㅠ I got LAMS dreaming of wearing sleeveless tops, but sleeveless tops are still only a dream. I'm really upset.
But now that I've dug and dug and dug through LAMS reviews, there were way more people like me who only got a line-refining level of effect..ㅠ (Looking back now, most of the ones saying, It's dramatic! It's amazing! were mostly ad-like posts.)
If you want a dramatic change in your arms, liposuction is definitely the answer.. things like mesotherapy fat-dissolving injections barely have any effect.
Sigh, anyway, that's about it for my brutally honest reviewㅠㅠ LAMS.. I think it's really a procedure I'd recommend only to people who have a slim body type but are a little concerned about upper-arm fat.. I was planning to do my abdomen too, but I'm just going to proceed with liposuction at the same hospital.
I did it at 365, and the staff's kindness and aftercare here really crush other hospitalsㅠ Damn.. I totally acknowledge that they're really kind and the aftercare is great.. but the LAMS effect is minimalㅠㅠ uwaang
Anyway, hoping my 3-week LAMS review was helpful.. I'm writing this post. I hope everyone has a good day today toooo
