$5,500

I had SlimLipo done almost 2 weeks ago and I actually look worse now than when I went in there!!

I was given 2 valium and 2 vicodin when I went to the facility. He started with the abs then did the flanks/bra roll area. The whole procedure took 3 hrs.

The dr. was very nice throughout the procedure and even called me at home twice to check on me. I went home that night and took vicodin as directed for 2 days and stopped.

I am still very sore, my stomach is hard and lumpy along with the fact that it really doesn't look any different-actually worse. And my pants don't even fit at all-nevermind any better. What is going on? Why do some people that have this done have a flat belly the next day? Ugh-I am so frustrated all I want to do is cry! HELP

Good luck with your recovery and please keep us posted on how you're doing.

Hello, i had smartlipo done 1 month ago and I'm having a very similar outcome. I am still swollen, and my clothes fit tighter as well. However, i will tell you that i went to a very experienced board certified surgeon & just went for my 3rd check up. He told me it was completely normal b/c i was seriously freaking out. I've also gained about 3 pounds, but i think its from the swelling. Don't worry - it literally takes a good 3 months to see semi-final results. Just keep wearing your garment and make sure to massage!! hope this helps (also drink lots of water)!! :)
Hi...I had slim lipo done 3 weeks ago and am having the same exact results...can you tell me if you are doing any better since for you I believe its been about 2 months now right?? I am sore but lower abdomen is very hard and big
Well, from what I have been reading, it takes time in some patients for the swelling to go down. Are you wearing a garment?
Yes, I am wearing it pretty much all the time besides showering and washing it. I have a bad feeling I may need a touch up but that is not going to happen. I'll just have to deal with the body I have....
Have you read a lot of the posts? Some people had smart lipo, some people had vaser liposelection and some people had slim lipo. Which one did you have because I'm trying to find out what the difference is? I read people got lumps from the smart lipo and vaser, so is the slim lipo better about lumps? Is your doctor a plastic surgeon? Maybe he can fix your lumps for free. I just read a slim lipo post from a real nice woman, Angelmed. She said her doctor in PA gave her vela shape sessions free to help her heal. Maybe your doctor can do that for you too! Where are you located? Don't be sad cupid! I'm sure you will get better!
