Don't Waste Your $$$

The injections were painful and it got worse in...

the injections were painful and it got worse in the afternoon after my treatment. I was told to expect it might be a little itchy... an understatement to say the least, my thighs felt like they were burning. I kept bags of ice on them as long as I could stand it and then removed only to have it come back in waves.

A couple of weeks later to my horror I developed lumps along the backs/insides of my thighs that were painful to the touch. I consulted my doctor who sent me to a plastic surgeon she diagnosed fat necrosis and put me on antibiotics. I still have nodules or small lumps 3 mos after this 'treatment' and no visible reduction in fat.

Great review?

I think it's strange that they don't do an allergy test before

I still have nodules/lumps on my outer thighs after after 18 after 18 months. And I only had 3 injections there because of the redness and large lumps.

Were you able to resolve those lumps or found more details on those lumps?

They are still there if you feel for them and the discoloration is still there as well. I have to wear a skirted swim bottom because of that. Wish I had never done it.
