#also noelle covered half the cost which I'm extremely thankful for <3

Dude I never thought about lipo for body dysmorphia stuff but your before and after pictures are amazing!!! Like I'm getting euphoria just looking at it lol if you don't mind me asking how much did it cost? Also how did the blood thinner injecting thing go? I'm so happy for you omg

not cheap lol. although tbf the surgeon I went with was on the more expensive side because he's in high demand, has his own in-house surgery center, does extensive follow-ups, etc. the other guy quoted me a price that was literally half as expensive, but that was the same guy who said he hated doing lipo and said it wouldn't work (in part I assume because he doesn't do the ultrasound skin-shrinky thing, which I assume costs extra). so if you go to someone who's good at lipo but isn't as ~boutique~ or whatever it'd probably be somewhere between the two. also worth noting that I have heard of people getting this stuff covered by insurance but I knew my chances were slim and my surgeon was cash-only regardless

the blood thinners were a bit of an ordeal tbh but only because I was actually pretty ambulatory (all things considered) and don't have high blood pressure to begin with so they made me sooooo woozy and gross-feeling lol. plus I had bronchitis from being intubated which didn't help. thankfully they let me stop taking them earlier than expected which was also a relief because my blood was so thin that the shots kept leaving huge hard bruises on my arms and noelle was running out of spots to inject... but she was a trooper about it!
