I had surgery about 7–8 years ago at a clinic near Gangnam Station Since I was young, my lower body was especially thick For example, even though my pants waist was 23 inches, I had to wear a 28 to fit I’m average height and weighed 44 kg, but if you only looked at my thighs, I looked over 50 kg Still, they were firm like I’d worked out, so I didn’t think of it as a complex and confidently wore skirts too But what decisively made me consider surgery was finding out that men around me had sexually harassed me by talking about my thighs, so I thought I wanted surgery So people say when others start plastic surgery, they begin with double-eyelid surgery, but I started with liposuction..
Anyway, I went to the clinic for a consultation, and I don’t know where that confidence came from, but I didn’t shop around at all I went somewhere where the price seemed just right and decided immediately ㄷㄷ Fortunately, I was lucky and had no side effects My mom didn’t even know I had liposuction, and she said, “I hear liposuction is popular these days~~ but the side effects are severe~~,” so I got startled But the bruising went away quickly, and I went about daily life without problems It was done under sedation anesthesia, and they said they made a few holes under the buttocks and inserted something like a cannula? through them to remove the fat Maybe because of that, there weren’t many surgical scars Before the scars disappeared, even if I said it was inflammation or a mosquito bite, it wouldn’t have seemed strange? Maybe because I went early in the morning for surgery without sleeping properly, I kept sleeping I went at 9, and when I woke up after sleeping deeply, it was 4; they said the surgery ended quickly though..
After surgery, there wasn’t anything special, and the clinic told me to keep wearing something like a sweat suit and be careful about inflammation. They did massages at the clinic about twice I was worried because the skin sagged a little as much as the fat was removed, but fortunately it recovered together as the bruising faded And right after surgery, even though my thighs were swollen, they were similar in thickness to my calves, so I worried they would look strange once the swelling went down Fortunately, even after the swelling went down, maybe because I couldn’t exercise during that time, my thighs settled into an appropriate thickness
Right after surgery, whenever I walked, rather than my thighs hurting, they felt numb? It felt like the anesthesia hadn’t fully worn off.. But I could wear heels fine, standing for a long time wasn’t a problem, and I used public transportation fine too For about a month after surgery, it just felt a bit numb, and after that there were no problems except the bruising The bruising did take a while to go away, but the clinic said the bruising would gradually move downward, and it was fascinating to see that it really did move down
After surgery, everything else was good and recovery was fast But after recovering, when I looked slowly, my buttock flesh had sagged.. I originally had good hip lift and wasn’t very worried about having a large butt, so I left it alone But once I removed fat from my thighs, maybe because there was nothing supporting it, it sagged just like that Only then did I understand why people do the buttock line together when doing the thighs,, I didn’t have money, so I didn’t think about having more surgery and said I’d destroy it with exercise, and already 7 years have passed And before surgery, I hoped I’d get pretty straight legs like Sohee from Wonder Girls But after surgery, I realized removing only thigh fat wasn’t enough... Still, now even if I gain weight, my legs don’t become elephant legs like before Instead, maybe because the fat removed from my thighs goes elsewhere, I gain belly fat, back fat, upper-arm fat, and everywhere except my thighs, where I didn’t gain before I think you have to keep taking care of yourself even after surgery
