“Happy with smartlipo on chin, legs (knees, thighs, hips) & abs”
Smart Lipo: Worth it
Pain: Mild
I had laser lipo done seven weeks ago today. I am already down two sizes and 11 lbs. I had my chin, upper and low abs, hips, back, inner and outer thighs and knees done. The procedure was done with IV sedation and a local anesthetic. It took five hours to complete. The procedure itself was not really painful at all. I was in an out and I do remember some pressure here and there but it was not an unpleasant experience.
Because I had so may areas done, my recovery was a bit longer than I anticipated. This was also my first surgery ever, so I had no clue what to expect. I was very sore and numb all over and very bruised. I also had a lot of drainage from my legs initially. It took almost a month for the bruising to go away. Now, the soreness is completely gone but I do still have a little swelling in my lower back and light numbness in my abdomen, back and legs.
My chin is still swollen as well. I am told I can expect to see greater results in my chin at the 3-4 month mark. The results in my legs, stomach, etc are incredible. I had no idea I would drop two sizes so fast.
I was concerned about the lumps, bumps and tightness in my legs initially, but I did massaging and used a heating pad daily and now everything is smoothing out nicely.
Overall it was a great experience and I am more than happy with my results. I have had two follow-up appointments thus far and the care post procedure is just as thorough and the pre-procedure visits.
