Smart Lipo on Love Handles. LOVE IT!!!!

I originally had Smart Lipo this past October on my upper and lower abs. I loved it soooo much that I went back in for my love handles this past Sunday.

I went in early on Sunday morning. The medspa offerred me a car service so that I wouldn't have to drive myself or worry about getting a ride.

The doctor was extremely nice and very warm. The procedure itself was quick, easy, and simple. The environment was comfortable, relaxing, professional, yet fun. They played my ipod so I could listen to my music, and there were times during the procedure that we were singing along to my music, lol.

The procedure itself only took a few hours. There were a few times when I felt discomfort, but overall it was very simple. The dr. made numbed the area, made small incisions, used the laser to liquify the fat and to rebuild the collagen, and then sucked the fat out.

I went home immediately following the procudure and took my vicodine and slept most of the day. Today, I felt well enought to go to a 2-hour meeting at work. I came back home after the meeting and took a nap. I will go back to work tomorrow.

I am a very enthusiastic fan of Smart Lipo! I have already referred my mom, and other friends to the same medspa to get the treatment done themselves.

Please email me if you have ANY questions or want any additional info!

(I am attaching before and after photos, and please keep in mind that the after photo is just ONE day post op... The final results will be even better!)

I also work at this medspa, so I get an insiders view as an employee, but also as a paying client. I get to see first-hand the results my clients get, which made the decision to get Smart Lipo super easy.

Update: Its been a full week. Bruising is completely gone. Results are coming along wonderfully. I'm still wearing the compression garment for another week.

Great review?

Great price, very experienced, professional, and comfortable.

I am glad that you are one of the few with great experiences dealing with nu U Medspa.. I've gone through quite an ordeal and I haven't even had the procedure yet. Now I'm back to looking into another office for my procedure. I'm hoping that I can get it done at a decent rate with a Much more Quality Company/Office than This Med Spa... I think once their BBB.ORG Ratings go up I'll reconsider.. Thanks for the update on this one

You looked great before, but the difference is amazing! It will only get better I'm sure!

Lol, I have heard that rumor too... but no, that is absolutely untrue. Actually. I have discovered that it is the exact opposite. I had my abs done last Oct, and over the winter I gained those "winter 10 lbs" however I barely noticed that I gained the weight (if I hadn't stepped on the scale, I never would've thought that I gained weight). In the past, if I gained even 3 pounds, I'd notice it instantly in my stomach because my pants would feel tight... However this time when I gained weight, it seemed to be distributed more proportionately, so it wasn't as obvious! Hope this helps! :-)

Hi. Thanks for being willing to answer questions!!! Have you notice fat showing up in places that where not problem areas before? I heard that that fat has to go somewhere and can show up in weird areas I would love to get your feedback. Thank you....

Hey, I have a question... I am thinking about getting this done. I was wondering if you could let me know which doctor you seen. I am very nervous about getting anything done as I have never had any surgery ever. :/ Any additional insight or information you could give it would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Hi, Katie. Yes, you should be just fine flying in for the procedure and staying in a hotel for a night or two. You shouldn't need anyone with you, as long as you are not driving immediately after the procedure. There are plenty of hotels (literally next door) to the medspa facility.

Also, I live in Denver and would be flying to Chicago for the procedure, and I was planning on coming alone and staying in a hotel for a few days. Do you think that is a bad idea and I should bring someone with me, or can I handle it on my own?

Alexandria333 - what was the name of the doctor who performed your smartlipo procedure at NuU Medspa?
