I wanted to have this done b/c I've had two kids and my lower part of my stomach sticks out a bit. Im 5'4 and 125 pounds but I needed the bigger one. When she first put it on my stomach it felt like labor. It was awful!! It got better but after a few days I had to take pain medicine and I had to lay on my stomach most of the time.

Today ( day ten) I finally felt better (day still cantbe wear jeans )but now tonight its hurting. The doctor told me I should come back in b/c it isn't normal to still be this painful. Does anyone have any ideas why or how this could happen? After reading everyones post the only thing she didn't do was massage my stomach afterwards. Im starting to worry.

Great review?

From what I've been reading, some people have pain for up to 4 weeks after the procedure. How are you feeling now?
