100% of Englewood reviewers said Smart Lipo was worth it
I was apprehensive about smart lipo. I was worried I wouldn’t see results and that the whole thing would be a waste of money. I was also worried about the pain. It was somewhat painful, but probably about as painless as one could reasonably expect from a surgical procedure. It was not excruciating…just pretty uncomfortable at times. I am very happy with my results, and I saw... more

“Fantastic Smart Lipo - Boulder, CO”
The staff are warm and friendly, as is Dr.Steven Schlosser. He allayed all of my fears and concerns with dignity and respect. He is a great listener and addresses all concerns with kindness and respect, and is not at all dismissive, even with the most trivial of concerns. My procedure was broken down into 2 surgeries: Back, flanks, bra rolls, and the other was lower and upper abs. The... more
“Muffin Top, Flanks and Abdomen -...”
After 4 years of considering whether I should have Smart Lipo to get rid of my muffin top and post-partum pooch, I decided to go ahead and "just do it". I couldn't be happier with my results. I have always been thin ( 5'9 and a size 6), but now I don't have this annoying spare tire hanging over my pants. My jeans fit perfectly and I can wear form fitting camis and... more
“Smartlipo of Abs and Flanks -...”
I am just 3 days out. The procedure wasn't bad. painful only around ribs. I am glad that I was awake for the procedure. I can already tell that the mid abs are going to look good. I am a very active volleyball player, who even did some bodybuiling and I was never able to get rid of these problem areas. Waiting for swelling to go down but very hopeful. Denise was my nurse and she was... more
“SmartLipo Procedure Not a Problem;...”
Procedure went fine. I did experience nausea although the rest of the day due to the medication. I experienced very little pain both during and after the surgery. As well the staff and doctor were very helpful and professional. I wish I had thought about it more myself and had more taken off as I can see what he did worked but still do not have optimal shape I would have liked... more
“1 Week and Already in Smaller Jeans...”
I am a very healthy 5'8" 135 lb woman. I work out hard, but not obsessively, 4-5 times a week. I eat everything, but in moderation. I do not obsess about my weight and do not own a scale. I chose this surgery not for weight loss, but to remove pockets of fat on my outer thighs and knees. These pockets of fat got worse from when I was overweight once freshman year in college. I gained... more
“SmartLipo is the Way to Go for...”
The price was wonderful considering all the areas treated. I am a very active woman who eats healthy doesn't just work out, but trains to maintain strength, power, speed and endurance on a regular basis. Even with all my hard training and healthy diet, I had areas on my body that would not go away, even when I was training to compete and had only 16% body fat. This procedure had nothing to... more
“Smartlipo Full Abdomen – Just Love...”
I had Smartlipo procedure done on my upper and lower abs about two months ago. Before deciding for Smartlipo I did a lot of research on the procedure and providers and I did read every single post on Smartlipo on this website.I did not want to post before I was absolutely sure on the results. I had lost my waist after having twins and no matter how much I diet or exercised, it more
“Smart Lipo on Flanks, Thighs &...”
It's not cheap, there's some uncomfortable recovery, but I'd do it again in a heartbeat! I can't wait to buy new pants!I am nearly 52 years old have been getting thicker in the middle with age and my upper thighs have always been larger. I guess you could call me a classic pear shape. I had flanks, thighs and knees done. Recovery wasn't extremely painful. I was provided pain medication but... more
“SmartLipo on Knees, Calves and Ankles”
I had my smartlipo procedure on 10/20/09. At first, I was scheduled to have vaser lipo on my breasts (I am a 32 DD, am 5'4 and weigh 126 lbs) as well as vaser lipo on my lower legs. The night before surgery I was having extreme anxiets re: the anesthesia (I was going to be getting iv sedation) a more
“SmartLipo Procedure Done on Muffin...”
I just had SmartLipo done on July 1st and am happy with the results already. You MUST, MUST, MUST do your research and make sure your doctor is a very good surgeon. Make sure they have many, many, pictures in their portfolio to show you. I cannot emphasize that enough. If other doctors offer a "deal" - I'd look into that as it might be that they're just trying to get experience..... more
“48 Years Old, Resculpting my...”
48 yo female 2 weeks post-op on session 1 of 3 to re-sculpture a menopausal body. My first session was inner & outer thighs and kneesThe staff and Doc were professional, caring and informative. I was never afraid, or nervous about the procedure. I am a big baby when it comes to pain which was a concern.After the treatment I followed the Dr.'s instructions to the letter, and had NO pain... more
I have my outer thighs done on 09-24-08. I also have scheduled my arms on 09-30-08. Price: So, all together it is $5,350 ($3,000 for the first area, $1,800 for the second area, plus $500 (the arms require skin tightening, and it is a bit extra). There are not too many doctors in Colorado, I have checked 3 months ago, and nobody would do Smart Lipo at all. So, it is a pretty new procedure for... more
The smartlipo numbing shots was horrible. I wanted that little belly pooch removed. It did get some of the fat off but it looks a little lumpy or something. It has been almost five months so I don't know if this is the result or not. I'm not sure how to describe it, like a tightness and cellutite mix. I hope it smooths out and looks fine. more
I had my abs done about a week ago. The procedure was not painful at all, over in about an hour and a half. Still a little sore, but happy with how it looks. I think what I like the best is the tightening. I'm 46, active, and have had three kids. Not a lot of fat to remove but I did have some extra skin. I'm looking forward to how it will look in a couple of months. more
Those areas that would not firm up even after miles of running, biking and swimming, hours in the gym, are gone. I caught sight of myself in the mirror just in passing yesterday and actually said it out loud - WOW. The procedure doesn't hurt, and I was back to normal daily activities the next day, and no restrictions on any kind of exercise after only two weeks. When I had my flanks done I... more
“SmartLipo All Boils Down to the Provider”
I think it all boils down to the provider. I had done extensive research online re: the pro/cons for the SmartLipo. Did you know that removing the melted fat is optional? Some doctors do not remove the melted fat and expect the body to reabsorb the fat; I can only imagine that would take forever to do. I had technically three treatments. My first was my upper/lower abdomen, returning... more
I have been trying to get rid of my poochy tummy for the past 10 years. Once I hit my 30’s, the fat settled into my belly and would not leave. I hike, bike, and workout about 5 times a week and am about 5’3’ and 118 pounds. The final straw was when my brother looked at my belly and asked me if I had happy news to tell the family. I had my SmartLipo procedure 6 weeks ago and have... more
