Well everything went well. I had to have a few stiches in my right arm where it opened up a little. Dr said maybe the dissovable stiches dissolved to fast. not a problem. I'm not having much pain at all but in my Thighs. I had aggressive lipo on them and man I must admit that really hurts. The DR. said that it will hurt a little while because of the amount of lipo. I think it was about 6lbs  out of each thigh. The reason was because I was really thick on the bottom portion and I needed the lipo before the actually Thigh lift. I must honestlty say when tehy put my before picture and my fter picture beside each other it broght tears to my eyes. I added it to my profile. It's not that great of a picture but when they e-mail me copies I will add them. and last but not least A speacial thank you to Dr. Jamal Bullocks at Baylor college of medicine. He has Truelly given me my life back.

This is awesome Mzhuny!!!! I am so happy for you and glad to hear all went well.  6 lbs in each thigh, WOW!  I know you must be so excited.  I am due to have my thighs lipo in Aug. 19th.  I was told the same as you, my things needed lipo before the thigh lift....so this hurt?  Do you have skin hanging because of the lipo of so much? 

I am praying for your speedy recovery.  Thank you for sharing your process...it has truely helped me navagate mine.

Hey my surgery sister!! Well I actually had some of the sgging before the lipo but I will have more sagging until the actual thigh lift. Yes I must be honest the lipo was much worse than I though but Im still positive and I do not regret it at all. I can already tell the difference in the size of my thighs so I know when I have the thigh lift in about 8 months that it will turn out great..

Heayyyyyyy!  Well at least I know what to expect.  I may move my surger up a week as to allow more time to heal before I go back to school.  Hey, do you have any photos of your thighs after lipo?  I would like to see what the difference is...can't find too many on the net.  Thanks friend.

OMG, that's a lot - no wonder you're so sore. I'm sure you'll love the final results and it's great to read that you already are thrilled with how you look. Fabulous.
