I wanted liposuction for a long time because I have a few stubborn areas where I cannot lose fat no matter how much I diet or exercise. After researching online I came across NU Cosmetic Clinic and I was impressed by the wealth of information on their website and the fact that they actually put prices up on the site (not many clinics do) so I booked a consultation and went to Birmingham.
The consultation took place in a good venue with plenty of parking. On arrival I filled out a couple of forms and then met Dr Fasano. My first thought was "He's young" but then he started talking and it was very clear that he is an expert and I felt comfortable explaining my body woes. He was very clear about what I could achieve through liposuction and thorough throughout the consultation. After I saw Dr Fasano I spoke to his secretary and went through the finance options and then went away to discuss it with my husband. By the end of the day I had confirmed my surgery date. I had some questions after the consultation which were answered quickly.
I couldn't wait for the day to come but I was nervous that I was only having a local anaesthetic and I didn't know what to expect.
On the day we went up to Manchester and found the clinic very easily and there was plenty of parking. All of the staff were really friendly and I was quickly settled in an pre op checks were completed. I was marked up and pre op pictures taken, then down to surgery. The entire team were lovely and took good care of me. Local anaesthetic and painkillers were administered and then we started. Don't get me wrong, it was not the most enjoyable experience but it was not awful and the time flew by.
Post op, I was taken back to my room and spent a while recovering, had some tea, biscuits and a sandwich and was later discharged.
I'm now over a week post surgery and while the first week was a bit tough with pain, bruising and broken sleep I now feel over the worst and it is getting easier. I cannot stress how important it is to follow the instructions and wear the compression garment and in my case the corset. They are as important as the surgery. Massage is key also, as I feel less stiff and sore because I massage the areas each day. If you don't know how to do the massage, pay someone. It's worth it.
I am already pleased with the results even though I'm still swollen. There is a noticeable difference. I can't wait to see how it develops.
If I wanted more liposuction I would not go anywhere else. I highly recommend Dr Fasano and his team.
