Here are possible side effects of a typical liposuction treatment according to Wikipedia A side effect, as opposed to a complication, is medically minor, although it can be uncomfortable, annoying, and even painful. Bruising: can be painful in the short term, and should fade after a few weeks. Swelling: should subside gradually over a month or two. Scars: 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. Pain: should be temporary and controlled by either over-the-counter medication, or by a prescription. Numbness: sometimes persists for a few weeks. Limited mobility: will depend on the exact procedure. There could be various factors limiting movement for a short while, such as: Wearing a compression garment Keeping the head elevated Temporary swelling or pain The surgeon should advise on how soon the patient can resume normal activity.

It’s a tilde and what it does is to put a nasal accent on a pair of vowels spelled together. And you’re welcome.

Not good but, not THAT bad…

Just like calling Canadians Americans. (not quite, Hispanics are descendants of Spanish people. Brazillians are of Portuguese descent, while Canadians and Americans are from English provenience, as of colonizing powers of long ago.)
Just my two bit of social geogaphy. Not to be considered as of thread relevance…

While this sucks(pun intended)….this isn’t the first case. This is about the third or fourth that I’ve read about and all have been Hispanics. This proves that not all Hispanics come here for the free Medical care.

You mean to tell me that if they used a Hoover, they wouldn’t have had the problem in the first place? Is it really down to the vacuum brand?

#7, Most Universal Health Care does not include purely cosmetic surgery or treatments. Only if the surgery can be justified by a physical need or psychological reasons, such as extreme burn scars, congenital deformities, hideous birthmarks, and the like. Treatments like liposuction are almost always vanity and would not be covered.

Having said that, what idiot would let another idiot do surgery on them? This isn’t a right wing / left wing debate. Its a stupid debate and you just can’t fix stupid.

In a thread about vacuuming out fat……someone references Hoover and the Great Depression. Tell ya what, I’d have to be in a Great Depression to let some yahoo Hoover out my fat gut.
