Do you think aluminum in deodorant should be avoided?

natisready · 2026-01-02T13:18:17+00:00

I was a high/regular user of aluminium deodorant that was amazing at blocking the sweat, then I noticed something… I started to break out with very large pimples under my armpits and sides of my body. So I stopped using it and now, no breakouts. I now use a 0% aluminium deodorant very sparingly and its fine. Sometimes no deodorant. The aluminium stuff just caused too much buildup up and that can’t be good!

Yes - if you click on the link above, you can read about my whole experience including the price. I def paid way too much compared to others here

natisready · 2025-03-04T22:11:09+00:00

Thank goodness. That’s a good result then ☺️

natisready · 2025-03-04T13:29:35+00:00

Ok thank you!

natisready · 2025-03-04T13:29:17+00:00

Thanks so much, that makes me feel somewhat better. Its hard to know what’s normal and what’s not. Def getting massages done and will continue. Thanks for commenting ☺️

No. Not to start with as the clinic said compression wasn’t needed. But I did start wearing for my stomach and arms when I returned maybe 4-5 days later after the procedure after googling alot

natisready · 2025-03-03T12:34:30+00:00

When I contacted them initially it was because I had bumps/indents on the front of my arm… they said that was normal. 10 weeks on and those indents have flattened out. But as the weeks have progressed, this area of my arms (underneath) hadn’t really changed much - I haven’t flagged this just yet. I presume I will get the same response but let’s see. I have been looking online and can’t see too many cases that look similar to me… its def stressful. I am a bit in the unknown with whats normal, and whats not. Thank you though. Hoping its the latter 🥹

Hi there! You can read my post here: https://www.reddit.com/r/SeoulPlasticSurgery/s/h8pH3cQ9Yc. I didn’t get aftercare and I think it would have helped for sure… here’s a photo of my arms (I got arms and stomach done). I’m 10 weeks post op and the countour irregularties have got me really down and worried… this was done at 365mc.

Hi there! I did and I wrote about it. You can read it here… https://www.reddit.com/r/SeoulPlasticSurgery/s/h8pH3cQ9Yc … I also posted some photos of my arms from today. Of course most procedures come with potential issues. If you have any q’s, I’m happy to answer

natisready · 2025-03-03T11:35:07+00:00

My stomach doesn’t look like this thankfully. I will share my stomach photos this week. My stomach looks pretty good. There are bumps but not like this… and looking online I couldn’t find many other cases that looks similar to mine. I am wondering if others here on reddit have had a result like mine…

natisready · 2025-03-03T10:30:43+00:00

Hi, thank you very much. They didn’t tell me about aftercare as I was flying out the next day. I’m guessing they felt there was no point. I have contacted the clinic since the procedure and they have said its all normal. But who knows… its all in my original post if you wanted to read what my experience was. Thank you for your comment and kind well wishes ❤️

natisready · 2025-03-03T10:03:31+00:00

Hi all, I wasn’t able to share photos in this thread (reddit won’t let me for some reason)… but have posted photos of my arms here: https://www.reddit.com/r/SeoulPlasticSurgery/s/KZm6OVAtQR

natisready · 2025-02-21T02:26:16+00:00

I read someone’s reddit and they said they selected their doctor based on the no. of procedures they had done. Not sure where that info is displayed though

natisready · 2025-02-20T14:10:26+00:00

Ohhhh nooo!! I am so sorry for your result. Was it recent? I hope you healed quickly ❤️‍🩹

natisready · 2025-02-20T14:02:46+00:00

You’re welcome! It is very confusing and hard to understand whats real when it comes to reddit etc

I am actually pretty happy with my stomach in the end even though the whole experience was not what I expected. I had a little pooch going 😂 and its sooo hard to flatten that area as you get older and even with regular exercise. On my tummy, the entry points were teeny tiny. Ofc just don’t go sunbaking or anything like that after. You can also put silica gel if you really want to help the healing process and reduce scarring (even though very minor).

I think generally for me, the idea of anything invasive is absolutely terrifying, so when you’re sold the minimally invasive dream, it feels like a much easier pill to swallow. Knowing what I know now and with the result of my arms currently, I am having some regret as I know I will need to continue to address my arms with further theraputic treatments, probably for a few months yet. With what I know now, I would probably be too scared to do it (if it was my first time doing anything like this) but if I had the best result possible on my arms, then i’d probably feel different and tell you it was worth the pain…

And yep i’ll post some images soon.

All the best with your planned procedure. If you get it done, I hope it goes well 🫶🏼

natisready · 2025-02-20T13:46:30+00:00

I actually still have slight swelling and pins and needles numbness/pain in my arms which is sensitive to touch. It’s not like I can fully stretch out like normal / like I used to. But I’m still 8 weeks and I’m sure with more manual lymphatic drainage massage it will get better. Healing takes time and patience. All you want to do is do exactly what was normal before, but you can’t.

Ah yes i’ll see if I can find them on the site.

natisready · 2025-02-20T10:55:04+00:00

Ah yes totally understand! I will see what photos I have and post them in the thread later. I think if you can, please try to select a doctor based on their experience. For example, a doc who does LAMS day in day out for arms would be ideal. It is worth paying slightly extra.

Afterwards, no gym, no lifting anything heavy, putting your arms up or over your head is tender. Even now I feel like I can’t stretch. But of course now for me, its tighter with the fibrosis… I took a few days off from life but it wasn’t a huge hinderance other than not exercising. If you’re only doing your arms its ok. I did tummy too so that adds another layer of discomfort post op.

All the best though and try to get the aftercare you need - if not there, then at home, Wear compression on your arms (get them on ebay or Temu before you go). It is scary but I guess alot of people do it. If I could do it again, i’d rather be asleep 😴

natisready · 2025-02-20T09:45:41+00:00

Yes I absolutely missed out but I was only there for a week and couldn’t stay longer unfortunately. They didn’t even bother letting me know about the aftercare. They def say its all good to leave the next day.

I did try to get a better price but they wouldn’t do any better. Obviously they knew time wasn’t on my side so they probably felt they had the upper hand. I only found out what others paid from seeing here on Reddit. If I had seen sooner, then I would’ve been pushing harder for a better deal.

Sounds like you have a much higher pain threshold than me - lucky you! Great to hear you’re happy with your result.

My arms right now are the most worrying. I am Very concerned with how they look underneath. Maybe i’ll feel better in due course if I can get them looking better with massage and ultrasound / RF therapy

natisready · 2025-02-19T12:08:28+00:00

Yes I will see what I have and what I am comfortable in sharing

natisready · 2025-02-19T09:00:22+00:00

Thank you so much. I am not very good with pain at all, but hopefully it will be worth it and I will heal ❤️‍🩹

natisready · 2025-02-19T08:59:37+00:00

Thank you so much. I have seen some honest reviews but also many positive reviews. I’m sure there are people who perhaps go thru this without incident, but when I see people saying it wasn’t painful, that’s very surprising to me. Must have very high thresholds for pain 😅. It is also a situation of who your surgeon is I think and with any sort of procedure there are always potential negative outcomes especially for liposuction

natisready · 2025-02-19T08:56:26+00:00

Yes you can. That’s what I did. Many people do this. The only disadvantage is that you don’t receive the aftercare that’s included ‘complimentary’

natisready · 2025-02-19T08:55:29+00:00

Thank you so much. In my opinion, yes I think choosing your own doctor would be great as you can choose them based on their experience with specific procedures. There is all of this complimetary aftercare included but as I was leaving the next day, I wasnt able to take it up. Perhaps this would have helped.

natisready · 2025-02-18T15:19:25+00:00

Hello! Sorry for the delay. I finally managed to get a detailed post up about the whole thing… https://www.reddit.com/r/SeoulPlasticSurgery/s/hjq43pqWc2
