Smart Lipo: NOT worth it

Cost: $14,000
Pain: Severe
Smart Lipo satisfaction: Poor1 Star Rating: Poor

I'm still the same size, swelling went down. I dont know about other doctors out there, but I went to the {edited} in Tampa and the doctor wont return my call, come to find out she's not even a real plastic surgeon. They charged $4300 for each area but I got a package price at $14,000 for 4 areas. Wasn't a smart choice. I don't recommend it.

Wow, I can't believe you paid that much and the doctor wasn't even legit. I am paying 2500 and getting my love handles, outer thighs (banana roll) and under my chin done. My mother was recently done with great results and our doctor is very qualified having graduated from UM med school. They have 10 other doctors there as well, most coming from ivy league schools, one guy went to Harvard Med school. Definitely get a lawyer and do your surgery down here in ft. lauderdale!

I went to strax rejuvination in ft. lauderdale florida. I am not sure that you can get it for that price, it may be a little higher, the only reason I did get it for that is because I got a bunch of my family members to do it. I just had my procedure done yesterday and I have a lot of swelling, my love handles seem to have gone down some, but I'm hoping Ill see better results around the two week period.

email me for info, its not letting me post on here. Editor note: normally we do not publish comments that appear to be promotional in nature, however, given the high interest touched off by your comment, we're giving Rara an opportunity to list her Smart lipo provider.
Rara - what's your relationship to Strax?

I am considering Smart Lipo and I live in the Tampa area. Can you please contact me and let me know the Dr. that performed your Lipo I am trying to do my homework and Iam sure you did also, however you still managed to get a Dr. that was not Board certified.
