“One of the Best Decisions I've Ever...”
My recommendations: 1. Pick a board certified surgeon. Not dermatologist, not otolaryngologist, not radiologist...a surgeon. 2. My doctor is one of the few who prefers to use general anesthesia for this type of procedure and performs the surgery in an operating room (not some office). Trust me, you want this. 3. You will feel like a stuffed turkey that is a spoonful away from... more

Okay, it's day 2 for me. OUCH. Feels like lots of pulled muscles, severe exercise pains, and tender bruising. Does not feel like an open wound. Luckily for me I haven't thrown up yet-in fact, not much nausea at all. I'm taking 1/2 to 1 full vicodin every few hours, icing diligently and getting up to walk around every once in a while. I had my flanks, sides, front of the thighs,... more
“Smart Lipo on Love Handles - Here is...”
I had Laser Lipo done on my love handles (the nurses called them "loves", which I think is endearing and made me hate them a little less) one week ago. I am 5'4", 128 lbs, and work out almost every day. I have had stubborn fat on my sides right above my hip bones since I hit puberty, and no matter how hard I work out or religiously diet, they would never go away. I finally made the... more
I had laser lipo on my abs and flanks one month ago. I still have a spare tire appearance around my lower abs and flanks area. It feels hard and a little lumpy.When can I expect to see this go away, or will it go away? My doctor said he is fully confident that it will tighten and appear flat in 2-3 more months....I just can't see it happening. please help with some advice!!!! thank you more
“Questioning my Choice on SmartLipo”
I have contemplated on this procedure for about a year now, I researched several places and decided to have this done on 11/11/09.The procedure itself was not painful to me at all. I spoke with the doctor and staff the whole time. Discomfort followed the day after and continues until today (day 3). The compression garment is so uncomfortable, I can't tolerate sitting for long periods of time... more
“SmartLipo - Liposuction Was the...”
Don’t risk the quality of your life with this unnecessary medical procedure!I had smart lipo in Costa Mesa,CA, and I have had nothing but trouble. Infection, very painful, horrible brusing and within one month of the procedure on my lower abs I developed a double hernia, which required more operations. I have many new spider veins and cherry more
“SmartLipo: Real Results, Really Happy!!”
I had my love handles done 3 weeks ago and my lower abs/tummy done one week ago today. I read all the reviews on this site, researched the facility & doctors and decided to move forward.My discomfort during and after the procedure was higher than I had expected. I talked to a lot of patients who've had this and they had very little discomfort. I think I have a high tolerance for drugs... more
I had a smarlipo four days ago. I have swelling and bruising now. But I don't feel any pain. I'm wearing compression garment. I just hope time goes fast. I had a smartlipo 4 days ago. I'm a little tiny woman, but I had a fat on belly. As soon as the operation done, the liquid came out from the little hole, but after coming home I didn't have any leaking. I am concerne more
“Smart Lipo in Outter Thigh and Under...”
Ihad smart lipo two years ago on my outter thighs and under my butt, I was at my ideal body weight, I only had small fat pockets that I could not get rid of no matter what I did.The first treamtment was $3500 and he only took out half a litre of fat... I knew that was not enough. 3 months later at my check up the doctor wanted to redew, but I was 5 weeks pregnant. So I waited until about 5... more
“SmartLipo on Upper/lower Belly and...”
I will be turning 40 this summer so I decided to get the smart lipo as a 40th B-day present to myself. The actual procedure (which took about 3 hours for 3 spots--upper and lower belly and love handles). I though this would be consired 1 area but I guess they consider this 3 areas (hence they got away with charging me for 3 areas).The actual procedure was not that painful (although the numbing... more
I had LaserLipo 3 mos ago on my inner/outer thighs and abdomen. The surgery was painless but the recovery time was pretty painful and lasted about 2 weeks. Although I am happy with my new size, I am worried about the lumpy loose skin in those areas. I followed up with Velashape in my surgery areas, but no change. I look great in my cothes, but if my skin tone doesn't improve, I won't be able... more
I have always eaten healthy and exercised daily but just couldn't get rid of my love handles. So I had smart lipo done and it absolutely helped me. The "hate" handles are gone and it was completely painless. The area was left tighter then it was before which is better results than regular liposuction that leaves the skin saggy. Since the skin became tighter in that area my tummy... more
“Looked OK for Awhile, but Not...”
I got 8 liters of fat lipo's out of my abdomen the first time, and I got arm lipo the second time. I am not satisfied with either result. My stomach lipo came out all lumpy and took away my curves (I wanted some waist definition and it totally made me look like a boy!). My belly button sticks straight up in the air when I lay on my back, which is weird. I don't think the... more
I initially had lipo dissolve in my lower tummy....I work-out and had a little bit of fat...people at the gym would think and have been told I have a nice body.....didn't need to do it...really!!!!! Well I did and had a bad result....lumpy, uneven, couple of dents...If you don't know what it is well it is an injection of mulitple vitimins etc that are suppose to dissolve the fat and you... more
“Upper and Lower Abs~Smart Lipo...”
I had my smart lipo procedure done on Thursday September 25, 2008. The procedure took about 2 hours because my doctor was so precise. I went to an all women's surgery center in Los Angeles, and I could not recommend a better place. Not only was the staff and the doctor extremely professional, but they were all VERY warm, kind and caring. I had been to 4 other plastic surgeons in the Los... more
“Have No Clue Yet, but Will Keep Posting”
I just had my procedure today, september 16, and it really wasnt bad. I had laser lipo on my chin, loves, and then regular lipo on my inner thighs. I was and am still nervous about the regular lipo on my inner thighs but my surgeon prefers regular lipo on inner thighs. The procedure was for the most part uncomfortable but tolerable. There were some points of a pinching... more
My experience with this doctor is that she is reckless and dangerous. She does not have the training or skill to perform body contouring. Her staff is not properly trained to monitor a patient post-op and it is not her routine to even check on her patients herself. She has left me permanantly deformed with significant damage that cannot be repaired, which has been confirmed by 5 board... more
