    Default Lipo Experiences

    Anyone that has ever had liposuction, did you gain the weight back and if so, where did it redistribute? So I'm getting old(er), er..., and I've noticed the last year or so, it's though the fat from the outer part of my butt is migrating downwards to form a saddlebag on each of my sides and some of it is going to my belly. I remain active, so need to tell me to exercise or to exercise more because I do. Anyway, it's starting to look odd. It's not too noticeable when I'm wearing tall heels but wearing flat shoes and tight pants or dress, it's like I have a pretty pronounced hip dip. I'm wondering if I get the fat sucked out from the saddle bags, it'll come back to the butt where it once was and where it belongs or whether it'll find another odd place to settle like the gut and if that's the case, whether a fat reinjection to butt at time of my boob job makes sense. Also, how much is standard to get sucked out? I'm pretty average sized, maybe even small by some ppls standards, and one of the surgeons I've consulted with said he wanted to suck out 500ccs out of each saddlebag/thigh area. Does that sound like to much? Will I end up with boy legs? Another, whom I suspect wanted to do microlipo to treat the area, made the lipo from lateral thigh with transfer to the outer thigh seem like a super quick procedure. So I'm not really sure whether I should just do the lipo, or lipo and fat transfer, and whether I should go with the doctor who wants to be more conservative with the suction versus one that wants to suck a lot out.

    I have had liposuction on my stomach and hips--traditional liposuction, not laser etc. Let me tell you, it hurts like a MOTHERFUCKER. My whole midsection was black from bruising for about a month. also you will have to "drain" your incisions which is blood and saline liquid coming out (they pump you with numbing liquid for the procedure) it takes about a year to see the full result but I am happy with it. ALSO I have had 2 boob jobs and didn't feel much pain. This lipo feels like your skin was ripped off your body and put back on again. I cried for a week and wasn't sure if it was worth it. Now I totally feel like it was.

    UNFORTUNATELY I never had cellulite until after my procedure was done and I totally attribute it to the lipo. If I gain weight it mostly goes to my thighs and arms which I don't really mind because I still have a nice body shape. I think my surgeon was a little rough so if I gain any weight at all in my stomach you can see a line where it sticks out a little more than the rest. You can get "lumps" from uneven liposuction. I wouldn't call what I have "lumps" but just a little patch under my bellybutton that I notice, and I'm sure no one else notices, sticks out a little more.

    I would say, research all the doctors in your area, read your reviews, and if you can find someone who personally had work done with them and ask them if they were happy with it.

    This is a really good question. I've known a lot of people who've gotten lipo and they either gained it all back in the area that it was removed from or they gained it back in other places. I honestly think there's no way to know where it will come back, you'd just be risking it. Personally I like the idea of the transfer. I'd love to hear more input on this!
