I decided on liposuction to fix my arm line, a long-standing worry. They said they removed 650cc of pure fat in total from my arms + upper arm roots + bra line + axillary breast tissue. A month later my circumference is down 0.7, the left axillary breast tissue has shrunk a little, and the right side looks cleanly removed. Overall the line is much tidier and the bulge at the back is gone. They said it will get thinner as the swelling goes down, so I am going to wait until the three-month mark. I chose to have surgery at TheLINE because of the emphasis on safety and because they use stem cells during the liposuction stage. It cost more than I had expected so I hesitated, but since it is surgery I felt safety and recovery mattered more. The reception and operating room staff are very kind, and Dr. Baek explains things in detail so the patient can feel at ease. The fact that there is a separate consultation fee was actually better from a patient's point of view, since I could ask questions comfortably without feeling awkward. I was very nervous on the day of surgery, but the operating room staff kept reassuring me, so I got through the anesthesia and onto the table safely. Aftercare is provided free twice. For my first session I had cryotherapy (3 minutes), the kind athletes get when they recover, and it helped a lot with pain relief. The doctor said aftercare has no effect at all on the surgical result, but I still feel more swelling needs to come down, so on top of the two clinic aftercare sessions I started weekly radiofrequency care outside. I am dieting alongside it too, and I hope the rest of the swelling goes down soon so I can show off my arm line!
A month has passed since my arm liposuct
One-month abdomen reviewIt has been a month since the surgery, and I have recovered enough that everyday movement is not much trouble anymore. Early on, the sharp pain every time I sat down or lay down made it hard to move freely, but now it feels so much lighter that the memory seems unreal. That said, wearing the compression garment constantly has made my skin dry and it often feels itchy or stingy. I think that is unavoidable to some degree, but I am managing it by applying moisturizer and body oil often. I also asked the clinic about rechecking the measurements they took when the compression garment was fitted - compared to the beginning, my abdomen has clearly come in a lot. They told me that as the swelling goes down the skin tightens more and the size shrinks further, so I am going to take care of it and wait! It has not fully settled yet, but seeing my body change little by little in the mirror every day makes me think my decision to have the surgery was not wrong. I will keep up with the remaining swelling care and the injection treatments, and post another review next month in a more settled state!I am satisfied with my abdominal liposucI am one month out from abdomen and love handle liposuction After about a month the swelling has gone down a lot and the line has become natural, and maybe thanks to the procedure using stem cells, recovery feels a bit faster. There is still a little stiffness, but no real problem with daily life, and I am recovering smoothly while following the care instructions from the clinic. So far I am very satisfied overall.
