About six months after liposuction on my abdomen, thighs and knees, it feels like my body contour has almost fully settled. At first the swelling meant I could not feel a big change right away, but as time passed I could really tell the difference. In particular, as my abdomen, flanks and waistline got cleaner, my clothes fit very differently than before. It is not so much that my weight dropped a lot, but more that my whole silhouette became cleaner. My weight is about the same but visually I look so much slimmer haha The bruising and swelling were only there briefly at the start, and the recovery process went by more easily than I expected. I got back to daily life quickly, and there was hardly any period where I felt seriously uncomfortable. Right now I am living comfortably with no swelling or pain. The scars are still a little visible, but I feel like they keep fading as time goes on. They are not noticeable enough to bother me in daily life, and I am keeping up with the care and watching how they go. Overall, this was a surgery I am really satisfied with. It feels like it looks more natural and the result gets better as time passes, so personally I think it was a really good decision
