Lipo of Inner/outter Thighs, Flanks and Abdomen - Austin, TX

So I am a month away from my 5 month mark and I just really wish my results had been better. I still have a huge crease on the left hip/waist area. I did endermologie religiously and it just did not help that area at all. If I had it to do over again..I believe I would have searched around a lot more, and I believe I would have found a Dr who specializes in lipo. Maggi's favorite thing to do is rhinoplasty. O'well, what can ya do? Good luck everyone!

You guys wanted some pictures. I don't have the before pix or the after pix that they took, but these are a few that I took just a min. ago. They aren't great at showing what I'm talking about. I have arrows to show you the things that I personally wish were done better. You guys might think it looks bad, but really it's all about what we ourselves think. :) The indent's that you will see were said to be from the garment. This is a garment provided to you. I stayed on top of keeping the areas padded just as I was told to do. I'm not the surgeon, but my guess is maybe it was from the garment, or maybe too much fat was removed from the ONE area, and not enough from around the area (top and bottom of indent) so that it would be laying flat. After all, I did want the fat removed from those area's, not just the one spot. All in all, I can tell you that I am still glad that I did the surgery. I'm just having to do so many other things on top of it to achieve the rest of the results. Ie. endermologie $60 every time I go (twice a month) I'm also going to be trying infrared body wraps to hopefully slim down the right side of the belly more. $289 for 3 months. After I'm completely at my 6 month "healing" mark. I will probably also do cool-sculpting $1149. It really all comes down to whether you feel a trust and comfort with your surgeon. Again, he was very nice, but I wish they had specified the massaging instructions better, and I wish I didn't have any complaints at all. :)

Dr. Maggi is polite. All of his staff, (loved Kathy, Patti and Veronica) except for Kelly were very sweet and understanding. There are way too many negative things to say about her and how she is a liar, but I will not waste my time on her. I also cannot post for others who told me their experience with her. My surgery turned out okay. Need what they call "touch ups", but of course I would have to pay for it. All in all, I would give this place 3 stars. I don't plan on going here for future surgeries, because. 1. I think the results could have been much better ( not looking for perfection either, but some area's did not turn out well ) 2. I've had to go to endermologie to keep scar tissue from forming since I wasn't told EXACTLY how much to massage, how hard to massage, how long to massage etc, and I over did massaging and created problems. (more money spent) 3. I wouldn't want to see Kelly again. She ruined my first cosmetic surgery experience, and I just don't deal well with fake people.
