Procedure not so bad still evaluating my body after 3 days, still have not seen results yet! I was told the swelling will go dwn after 1-2 weeks. It has been 4 days so far, the bodyshapers help. I have a f/u this Sat 3/3/12 with nurse, then in 1 mth with Doctor. At that point I will submit updated pics, hopefully excited about some results.

I mustve called the dr's office 3xs asking y my body looked the same, so i had to recheck reviews and healing results to realize I must be patient. I did not see to many black females reviews I guess many of us r ashamed or think its a "other race" thing. But I have a whole new network of blk females that r coming out the woodworks now.

I have to admit i am excited to show my new look this summer . I have not even told my bffs yet or family let them believe for now that my gym membership works. lmao. TTYS

@stike. Sleek NY is a very professional place with very pleasant staff members. Cory&Lindsey are the two I dealt with. Be sure to have all questions avail during consultation. After the local anesthesia, I felt a lil pinch when fluid was going in, Dr. Singer was always explaining to me wht was going on. You could listen to yr ipod (i didnt, i like to hear everything during procedure) You do feel the pressure, but it is bareable. I took the meds (hydrocodone pain killer not really necc tylenol is ok) You do walk like a cowgirl LOL for a few days. It is now day 5 for me and the swelling is still evident and im a lil tender, no pain meds necc for it. I can touch my bruised puncture areas with np, my inner thighs r more sensitive to the touch. I'll keep yall posted. Gd luck

Morning STRIKE, I am doing well getting better by the days. My inner thighs are still tender and give a lil sharp pain occasionally (nothing severe for pain meds). I still have not seen any "real change" aside from the fact that the swelling is going dwn, so hopefully as the weeks go by I will c a change. I have a f/u appt this Sat, so I will be able to discuss concerns. TTYS

As of today, my procedure was a total waste of money and time. I visited Sleek Spa in midtown after my numerous calls to their ineffecient corp office(which by the way the rep there ignored my calls until i started dialing random numbers and leaving various types of messages- miraculosly he called back. smh) only to be told that my results wouldve been more apparent - if i lost more weight. Hello to the dumbasses over there that i now for a fact read these reviews why do you think ppl go get these procedures done if we could "just lose the weight". duh!!!! Moral of the story is I'm suing them and I was better off going to a reputable surgeon and got a tummy tuck,. This overly commercialized "place" is a joke. Once they get your money you're doomed. The customer svc demeanor goes down to zero%. I wish i wouldve saw all the complaints against this place. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY...

DR.JOEL SINGER, was the Dr. whom performed my vaser lipo at SLEEK SPA. my thighs have a "dent" in them. And when i went back to Sleek Spa to complain and a follow up, the look on ALL the coordinators faces told it all. My antennas went up once i realized once again they were new faces, staff rotation is unbelievable. I waited a loooong time for him to evade eye contact and tell me "PSJ" plastic surgeon jar gin that itll look better. NEVER happened. When i called back i fould out that SLEEK SPA was no longer in business, place was vacant and the owner is a business man that fled to Florida and opened another location. Dr's that work for these type of places should have their licenses FLAGGED. You lose credibility and honor, your integrity is at an ultimate low to take advantage of people at a time when yr surgeon hands should be used to enhance my image not damage it. BEWARE of the wolf still in the sheep skin...
