I'm 41, 6'5", 215lbs.
Smart Lipo chose me! I mentioned prior to tickle lipo on my flanks that I would like to see if the DR would do my abs for an additional $750. Prior to the lipo, a kgbdeals came for smart lipo. I called immediatly and scheduled a consult.
What I hope is that the laser will tighten the loose skin on my abs. The PS said that I should be able to get a 50% improvement.
Day 2 was uncomfortable. Day 3 was much better at...

I have a compression top, which I think sucks. I bought a back support wrap from walmart for $16 that offers more compression than the $95 compression top. Today I got a 12 inch binder from makemeheal, and that combined with my walmart wrap is all the compression I need. Question, how tight should the compression be? I've been having it super tight, just wondering because the $95 compression top offers no more compression then a spanx.
It's been 9 days now. Today I am swollen up. I...

For me, the worse part so far has been the pain the first few days, the compression garment, and not being at 100%, oh yeah, the waiting! The 6 month final result is hard to take, I want to see the results now. In six months, an unhealthy eater can pack all their weight back on and never notice any results.
13 days out. I feel so much better. The swelling...

I think what I need is to have all the loose skin cut away, but I'm not ready for the pain, and cost. My dr says since it is only skin and not muscle, I should only be down for 4 or 5 days. So I'd only miss one week of work.

My rating:
The Dr was very personnable. He didn't come across as rushed and I was told he only does 1 or 2 procedures a day because he likes to focus on the person. Compared to my other procedure, this Dr seems to take pride in what he was doing.
Oh no. :( I'm really sorry it didn't work out for you. I'll keep my fingers crossed that the lipo you got this week will improve your results. :-/
I'm very sore now. I decided to go to work today. Just sitting here is uncomfortable. I didn't sleep well last night because i'm a stomach sleeper. There was no laying on my stomach last night. I only drained for a little while yesterday. I took the bandages off this morning, yuk! When i press on my abs, i hear what sounds like air pockets. I had to go without my garmet today, it was damp and stunk. I'm just wearing a binder i got from wallmart. It offers some support/compression. I ordered a binder and compressing shirt from makemeheal yesterday so i have a backup when it gets here.
I took some pics this morning. I'll upload them later. They are not very flattering.
I can't believe he found that much either! Your abs were great to begin with. Rest up, but we'll be ready for "after" pics whenever you are. :)
Good luck today!
