Liposuction and Tummy tuck surgery is very safe nowadays. My cousin got her breast reduction, tummy tuck and facelift surgery in India by the company called Forerunners Healthcare .The Price for the surgery she paid in India was very less. She paid 30% of the cost she was quoted in America.\n\nForerunners Healthcare is very famous in India. They arrange cosmetic and plastic surgery for foreigners in India. I read a lot about them in the Newspapers and about their patient stories. They arrange financing for USA, Canadian, UK and other international patients who plan to have surgery abroad for low price, as the breast reduction, tummy tuck, facelift and other cosmetic surgery is not covered by insurance. They also have photos pasted of their International patients. You can checkout their website. There are huge cost savings. As a doctor I personally believe that surgery can be easily handled in India, as the quality of healthcare available In India is simply best in the world. The surgeons are USA/UK trained and facilities are 5 star.\n\nhttp://www.forerunnershealthcare.com\nHope this helps.

No, I don't think you do personally.  If this is you on the picture, then I say no.  You look just fine to me sweetie. : )  Liposuction is just a little temporary fix anyway.  Yeah, it may suck the fat out of you for now, but once you eat the fat will come back and sooner or later it will start to pile back on you.  I think it's a waste of money for that reason.  Don't do the liposuction.  If you are really concerned about your weight, get you a personal trainer and start walking and exercising little bit by little bit.  Diet and exercise could do you a world a good!

Below are only some of the side effects associated with steroid use. Some steroids lead to more side effects than others. In most cases, the more effective the steorid, the more negative effects the user will see.\n\nWater Retention:\n\nThis is most common from using steroids. It is a “puffiness” or swelling in the neck and facial areas. It is rather notable mainly if you know the person is on steroids. For example, I know someone that took steroids but I did not know it at the time. After I found out, if I looked his face I would wonder how I couldn’t notice he was on roids before. It can be mild swelling or very serious, obvious swelling. \n\nAcne: \n\nEveryone knows about acne, and is one of the side effects I worry about the most for me. It is also a very common side effect, it can give acne to someone who has never had acne, and it can make acne worse for others. It can also appear in new places for a person, such as, the back and neck. There have been several users that have not received acne on the other hand. \n\nGynecomastia: \n\nIt may not sound familiar but most people have heard about it. It is the formation of breasts, or abnormally large glands. The first signs are lumps under the nipples, then will gradually grow to fatty tissue and increase in size. \n\nAggression: \n\nAggression, also know as “roid rages”. Surprisingly, several athletes feel this is a positive effect. They often find they lift more, and are more intense during workouts. On the negative side, users find themselves fighting with family, friends, and co-workers with an uptight behaviour. \n\nHypertension: \n\nHigh blood pressure is also a chance when taking steroids. Most athletes would not know if they had high blood pressure so it is suggested to get tests regularly. High blood pressure can lead to many more serious diseases. \n\nCardiovascular Disease: \n\nStudies have shown that steroid use is a risk factor for heart disease. This is because steroids affect the cholesterol levels. Over a period of time the cholesterol builds up and clogs the arteries. \n\nPalpitations: \n\nHeart palpitations have been reported by a number of athletes on steroids. These may indicate an excited or elevated level of the central nervous system. \n\nImpotence: \n\nImpotence occurs when a user goes on and off steroids. When steroids are first used sexual interest increases because of the heightened frequency and duration of the erections. But eventually the opposite happens and no erections can be produced. \n\nJaundice: \n\nA serious liver disease which is found by an enlarged painful liver, yellowing of the eyes and skin, and flu like symptoms. This happens when athletes use high dosages of steroids.

hmmm, how did u get a fat mole on ur face? Laser surgery may be effective, but a more cheaper alternative would be to kindly ask her to get off your face. If you get into a fight with the sl.. girl with multiple sex partners, there may be a few scars.

Lower your stress levels, get lots of sleep, eat foods that are not fatty, wash your face at least once daily (Neutrogena makes some great face-cleaning products), and smile!

I've been on it for a long time and have few side effects.  I am always very tired, but I've been that way my whole life, so didn't contribute it to the patch.  But I do notice excess weight in my tummy area that I can't get rid of, even though I work out four times a week and the muscles under the fat are hard as a rock.  I think that it may have fewer side effects than some forms of birth control, but like them all, it has some, and they are evil.  I'm making my man get a vasectomy because I'm so tired of dealing with it.  I'm sure we all are.

I have not had surgery done, I am actually happy being curvy and am expecting a child so its only right for me to be.\n\nHowever, a lot of plastic surgeons are not real surgeons, if you get a cheap deal that does NOT mean quality. Certain people can acquire equipment to perform cosmetic surgeries offline or on  discount prices as a doctor, but they may only be a dentist with access to dental anasthesia to keep you conked out. There's a lot of fraudulent plastic surgeons and uncertified surgeons. Certain official sounding plastic surgeon "boards" and groups aren't real. Just because a surgeon will have a plaque stating support from a supposed "National Committee of Liposuction" or something does not make it real or even government approved.\n\nGo for the pricier stuff; real surgeons need high prices to maintain safety procedures and costs and to combat malpractice or other type of lawsuits from unsatisfied clients. A low price is fishy.\n\nRemember that these surgeries have a very long recovery time of as much as a year. During that year you will be sometimes immobile, in bed-rest, in uncomfortable bandaging and padding... it's painful and it doesn't always work. Not only that but I have seen firsthand liposuction customers who had the fat just come back in other places.\n\nThe risk of an error is also extraordinary even with a GOOD surgeon. Sometimes a weird thing happens, like all of a sudden a thick lump or roll of fat will appear over or around the area you had lipo'ed. \n\nLiposuction, like a lot of cosmetic procedures, is not always successful and is seen as an "unnecessary " medical procedure. You put your body through the stress and trauma of invasive surgery, and anasthesia can kill you alone, not to mention the procedure.\n\nYou need to think to yourself if this is what you need. Look at the build of your mother, look at pictures of your grandmother, and you'll see if maybe that is the way nature made you, that is where you store fat. The stomach and thighs are where it tends to go... surgery cannot always fix nature. If that is how your body is programmed, it'll come right back, and if your skin doesn't heal properly in those areas or if something strange happens, it'll lump out in strange places. Women just tend to store fat, and the older you get the more its apparrent. I'm pretty okay right now, but I know that when I hit 45 I'll be like my mother, with a wide butt and a wide stomach.

If you just want to loose fat/tone the face muscles, there are actually face exercises you can do. 1) Smile as big as you can and feel the muscles tighten. Hold for 2 or 3 seconds. Then make your lips into a tight O shape. Repeat.   2) Also yoy can do the same for your cheeks, just tighten all the muscles as much as you can, and relax. It helps. Other than that you just have to diet like normal and loose weight everywhwere. GOOD LUCK!!!

DON'T DO IT!!  \n\nYou will not be happy with the results: lumpy, uneven appearance and you simply gain the fat/weight on another part of your body... seriously... I had my c-section bump (area above the scar, between my pubic bone and belly button) lipo'd 3 years ago and although the area is flatter, the skin is very uneven and lumpy and now my butt is bigger than it used to be w/out any weight gain!!  I would rather have my bump back and do sit-ups 1000 x a day than to have a bigger butt!\n\nJust go to the gym or do some resistance training (weights) on the area you want to make smaller!!!\n\nps: Let me add that I had an excellent surgeon, he also did breast implants that are phenomenol - it's just the nature of the liposuction itself - my surgeon actually warned me, but I didn't listen! =(

I am an alternative medicinal therapist and I don't know anything about your medical history so I'm going to ask a few questions.\nAre you eating the right foods\nAre you constipated or the opposite\nDo you suffer from wind\nDo you suffer from any bladder infections\nOr do you eat to much.\nIf 'yes' is your answer to any of these  questions. Then no amount of exercise will solve your problem and I strongly advice against liposuction.\nIf you want a private consultation e mail me on: alternative@medicine.wanadoo.co.uk and i will help you to solve your problem\n\nGloria

Liposuction is a type of surgery for body contouring.  It is not meant to be for weight loss.  Obviously, when a patient goes through lipo, they will weigh less, but no surgeon will do this as a method of weight loss.

Here's the thing, liposuction REMOVES FAT CELLS FROM THAT AREA!!! So while diet and exercise only shrink the cells, they would be completely removed with lipo. This means in the event you gain more weight, it would be unproportionate to all other areas because the lipo'd area could not be affected. Let's say you do your stomach. Gain weight. All of a sudden, you have huge arms and legs but your stomach remains flat. WTF???? Not to mention all the complications. These are just a few:\n\nBruising: can be painful in the short term, and should fade after a few weeks. \nSwelling: should subside gradually over a month or two. \nScars: will vary in size depending on the particular procedure, and should fade over the weeks. Scarring is an individual thing, partly dependent on heredity. For some, scar healing may take as long as a year. \nPain: should be temporary and controlled by either over-the-counter medication, or by a prescription. \nNumbness: sometimes persists for a few weeks. \nLimited mobility: will depend on the exact procedure. \nAllergic reaction to anesthetic: most liposuction is done with local anesthetic, so the risks of general anesthesia are avoided. \nInfection: any time the body is incised or punctured, bacteria can get in and cause an infection. During liposuction, multiple small puncture wounds are made for inserting the cannula, typically about 1/3 inch wide. \nDamage to the skin: most surgeons work on the deeper levels of fat, so as to avoid wounding the skin any more than they must for the insertion of the cannula. \nSometimes the cannula can damage tissue beneath the skin, which may show up as a spotted appearance on the skin surface. \nSkin necrosis (death) is a rare complication, in which the skin falls off in the necrotic area. Bacteria can then invade. \nPuncture of an internal organ: since the surgeon can't see the cannula, sometimes it damages an internal organ, such as the intestines during abdominal liposuction. Such damage can be corrected surgically, although in rare cases it can be fatal. An experienced cosmetic surgeon is unlikely to puncture any internal organ. \nContour irregularities: sometimes the skin may look bumpy and/or withered, because of uneven fat removal, or poor skin elasticity. We all heal differently, and with older patients the healing may be slower and a bit imperfect. Sometimes a small touch-up procedure can help. \nThromboembolism and fat embolisation: liposuction is a low-risk procedure for thromboembolism including pulmonary embolism. \nBurns: sometimes the cannula movement can cause friction burns to skin or nerves. Also, in UAL, the heat from the ultrasound device can cause injury to the skin or deeper tissue. \nLidocaine toxicity: when the super-wet or tumescent methods are used, too much saline fluid may be injected, or the fluid may contain too high a concentration of lidocaine. Then the lidocaine may become too much for that particular person’s system. Lidocaine poisoning at first causes tingling and numbness and eventually seizures, followed by unconsciousness and respiratory or cardiac arrest. \nFluid imbalance: since fat contains a lot of fluid and is removed in liposuction, and since the surgeon injects fluid for the procedure, even a very large amount of it for tumescent liposuction, there is a danger of the body’s fluid balance being disturbed. This could happen afterwards, after the patient is at home. If too much fluid remains in the body, the heart, lungs and kidneys could be badly affected. \n\nPlease just take note of this. I love full figured women and there are still some of us out there. You are beautiful the way you are and you life is not worth it!

Ask your MD or surgeon who performs it. My sis had it done and there were complications afterwards, but they fixed it and now she has lost more weight and she likes the results.
