“Very Happy with my Results -...”

I had the Smart Lipo procedure done on my upper arms, bra roll and lower back ( muffin top) areas. I am very pleased with the results. These were done over two procedures (lower back seperate). Downtime was minimal and healing was quick, but it was at least 6 months before I saw the final results more

“Only Two Weeks from Today!!! -...”

Ladies, I am nervous, excited and ready to get this done. After many years of going back and forth, I finally decided it was time. So, yesterday I went in for my pre-op appointment and found out my BP was up. Now this is very unusual for me. I figured it was nerves and stress from work. My doctor wants to make sure my BP is ok before we do the procedure. I am now monitoring my BP for the next... more

“Smart Lipo-Cheeks.,Jowls, Neck, Chin...”

Pros: Totally worth it!!! Cons: None so far! I had smart lipo done yesterday!!! From years of up and down weight it took a toll on my neck. No matter how much I gained or lost I always kept my double chins:-/ Can already tell a HUGE difference!!! The only hard part for me was the lidocaine mixed with the epinephrine. I have always had a problem with that mix. Example: when I have... more

“Best Thing I Ever Did for Myself -...”

Hi,I had wanted to get rid of this old C-section fat for many years. I am 46 years old in good shape, except for that stubborn belly that pooched out and everyone always thought I was 3 months pregnant. I finally got brave and went out and got it done by a skilled and Board Certified Plastic Surgeon, and my tummy is beautiful. It has been 1 year now, and my tummy is beautiful. Not perfect, but... more

“Burns from SmartLipo - North Carolina”

I wanted to reduce my "chubby" cheeks and went in to see a well known doctor for microlipo and he suggested smartlipo as that he was suppose to the absolute best in laser as he teaches it. The Dr and the nurses promised it would not scar and it is so much better them micro lipo as it tightens your skin as it removes fat. Well after the surgery my face looked like it had burn... more

“Love My New Look - Durham, NC”

I received Smart Lipo on my inner thighs, outer thighs, and banana rolls. I tolerated the procedure well (I was give pain medication and a sedative) and my physician used local anesthesia to numb the area before lasering and aspirating. I wore a compression garment for two weeks afterward. I have to admit I was a little nervous undergoing the procedure (I had never done anything like this... more

“Smart Lipo on Upper Arms - Apex, NC”

I've been a bodybuilder for about 24 years and have always carried fat in my upper arms. It was hard to see definition except when I dieted down for a show so I thought SmartLipo would be good way to get this. It was! I'm 5'1" and weigh about 118lbs. I had surgery 4.5 weeks ago and still have lumpiness and some discoloration but I'm sure this will improve during the... more

“Chose Smartlipo Instead of Tummy Tuck”

I had Smartlipo done to my upper and lower abdomen, and my front flanks last Saturday (6 days ago). I was supposed to have had my back blanks and inner thighs done as well, but the surgeon spent 5 hours on my abdomen and suggested that have the rest done later.I'm actually very pleased. I am really a candidate for a full tummy tuck (2 9 lbs kids before age 30) left me more

“Smartlipo = Scars and an Empty Bank...”

Staff members in the office claim you'll lose 2-3 dress sizes. I walked in a size 8 and came out a size 8. Still a size 8 six months later. Don't waste your money on this surgery. Cut back to 1200 calories for free. You'll save $10,000.00 and have no scars. Doctor performed the surgery a second time after admitting it didn't work. Now I'm still a size 8 with scars. I had hips, thighs and... more

“Smartlipo No Pain but Thus Far See...”

I had smartlipo on 04/17/2009. I am on day 2 and am feeling the lumps and bumps but see no results thus far. I saw quite a bit of fat that was removed from my body but do not see it physically. My legs are sore like I did an extreme maximum work out for the first time in years but there's minimal bruising. I was on the the table about 6 hours and honestly everytime the nurse asked me my pain... more
