For years, I had only been dieting a lot, going to consultations, and worrying about it, but then I suddenly got busy with work and lost 7 kg, so I thought, “This is the time,” and quickly went to the clinic and made a reservation. The place I went to was the Seomyeon branch of a place famous for liposuction injections, and the doctor was a female doctor. At the time, my weight was going back and forth around 163 cm / 59-60 kg. They said they would give points or something if I came back after losing 3 kg, but I just went as I was, so I didn’t get them,,, I think the unlimited upper-arm liposuction injections plus 2-3 bottles or so for the posterior bulge came to around 2 million won in total.
During the procedure, I tolerate pain pretty well, and maybe because my fat was soft, it didn’t hurt that much. But sometimes, if the cannula moved around the wrong way, it felt like it was stirring around inside, so when it poked me, it felt like I wanted to go “ack,” but I just endured it. The left side got poked quite a lot, and maybe because of that, the bruising was worse there.
Usually, when I look at reviews for liposuction injections, the bruising doesn’t look that visible, but for me, my arms were seriously like purple sweet potatoes, as if I had had actual liposuction. ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ For about 3 days, because of the solution, my upper arms looked like Ma Dong-seok’s arms, and people even asked me if I was sure I had come back from getting a procedure because my arms looked thicker. They were jiggly and purple like that.
As time passed, I went once a week for radiofrequency treatment and some injection care, and I diligently applied the patch-like things they gave me, so my arms did gradually get slimmer. As homework, they told me to lose 3 kg every week, saying the effect would be better. If I succeeded, they would add points, and I could use those like cash for aftercare or my next procedure, so I worked hard at that too. I also took the medicine they gave me regularly.
So in a month and a half, I went from 60 kg to 54 kg. The funny thing is, I don’t know whether my arms got slimmer because of LAMS or because of the dietㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
Honestly, they didn’t become dramatically skinny, bone-thin arms, and because I have a frame, it just felt like the line was cleaned up and they got slimmer as I lost fat.
Exactly a year has passed, and now all my weight has come back, and my arms have gone back tooㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ ha...
If you’re going to do it, I recommend just going for proper liposuction for sureㅜ I’m considering thigh liposuction, but I’m worried because I don’t think I’ll be able to recover properly because of work.
Oh, as for the purple sweet potato bruises, maybe because my skin is on the fair side, small bruises remained for over a month and a half, so I went around lying to people around me that I got bruised from physical therapy.
If you have any questions, I’ll let you know.
The recent procedures I had were lip filler and lateral cheek filler. And 13-14 years ago, I had double eyelids, upper opening, and epicanthoplasty.
