2 years after upper inner thigh smart lipo

Soo...I'm 2 years post op and I can't say that happy with the results. I feel very indifferent. Don't get me wrong....the final results definitely looks better than when I just got it done but it could still be better than what it is now. I'm still considering doing a revisions but I would NEVER go back to Mrs. Banks for the simple fact that it wasn't done in a way where it would look aesthetically pleasing. Harsh words maybe ...but I'm the one who has to live with the results.

cont....

let me just reiterate the fact that I DO NOT regret having the procedure done period. I just want it done to my satisfaction. I wanted to put that out there because my previous post sounded very negative....;) ???

...

So Im 3 months post op and I can't say I'm happy with my results. My legs looks like I never had anything done at all. I planning on having a revision done with another Dr. I went to a consult with dr Heron in va because Ive heard and seen good things from his patients. A friend included. He specializes in lipo and now smart lipo. He doesn't do any other procedure BUT that. At my consult I was informed that only "partial" lipo was done one me aka ONE AREA. I was under the impression that the inside of your thighs was one area in the world of plastic surgery. NO, the inside of your thighs are counted as two areas. So at this current moment I don't have a smooth transition going on and I have a sligth shark bite. Dr Heron would do a revision of my full thighs plus my knees for free for the same price as Dr Banks charge for one area. I'm also considering Dr Khalief.I won't be doing anything until winter though so I can give myself time to heal completely and lose some weight which might improve my results.
