Still searching for a doc in Ny!

Hi, I recently had lipo last week with laser tightening light a yr after my tummy tuck! Only on flanks and small area of the back. In my profile you can see the markings the PS drew for lipo areas. I noticed a huge difference the next day even though my PS said i was extremely swollen at my visit yday! was awake the entire time. I the pain shots definitely stung and the injection of the tumescent fluid hurt a little and was very uncomfortable being inserted. After that the lipo was a breeze. I almost needed no pain meds afterwards. i haven't taken a pain pill since the day of the procedure. I am very sore to touch, but im able to move around with out being in pain. I was told my results will only get better! I hate that i cant delete pics off of this site now, it make me not want to upload any for fear of uploading the wrong thing and not being able to remove it.

Good thing I never posted my face :) thanks

You welcome ladies! I'm sure realself was suppose to notify us but I didn't get a email.

I was thinking of deleting a prior photo and saw that the delete button for the photo was missing. Thanks for confirming that. I thought maybe I was going a little crazy. Do you know what the status of that? They should let members edit and delete photos if they want. Take care.

I had lipo in Feb. 2013. I was a size 4 with a nice body to start with, all I wanted was for him to clean up my flanks and little on my back. The results suck. He actually ruined my body, it looks bad, uneven and weird in the back. He does not respect patients' time, for my surgery I waited 13 hours from when it was scheduled. He does not provide a garment or even guidance regarding post op care. You need to get several garments, 3 days after the surgery you need to wear one at least 1 size larger because you will be quite swollen. Then you go through stages whereas you need to change the garment size. All he told me was buy a garment that's comfortable. Due to his lack of instruction I ended up buying 5 garments and paid about $700. He also told me the massages were 'optional'..OMG, without the massages you will develop lumps and swelling. I have spent over $1200 on massages (so factor that in). He does not have a file for his patient's so during each follow-up it's like he's seeing you for the first time with no information before him about what he did to you or your medical history..HUGE RED FLAG..The staff is beyond unprofessional and they are hustler's because they get a commission. By the way none of them are certified nurses and they assist the surgery..RED FLAG..To see him for a follow-up is almost impossible, he had me wait 5 hours once and 3 hours another time. I feel discouraged and I will have to go to another surgeon for revision. Do your research!! He is NOT Bd. certified, he is an OB/GYN. He takes the pictures right after surgery with your arms extended upwards to make it look at if your figure has clean lines, although there are bumps. For those getting fat transfer, the fat will be reabsorbed by your body, everyone in the waiting room was complaining about that. Visit several surgeons and do your research. Good Luck!! http://www.nydoctorprofile.com (click search at the bottom of page, put his name Ayman Shahine, and then click 'legal actions' at top of page.)
