I had a great experience. I chose to do the Tumescent Lipo to make me feel better about myself. I had a hard time losing some weight after diet and exercise. I had my stomach done and my love handles (better term?). I chose this type of lipo because of the quick recovery time. I had the procedure on a Friday and was back to work on a Monday. I resumed moderate exercise a week later.

I had the procedure 18 days ago. On day 16, I became swollen and sore, almost so much that it looks like I did not have the procedure. I also noticed some hard lumps around where my pants fall. Is all this normal? Does it get worse before it gets better.

I almost feel like I am in nore pain than I was right after the procedure. I am getting my arms done in a couple of weeks and am wondering if the same thing will happen.

Great review?
