“Swollen After Smart Lipo”

I am considering the same procedure and recently consulted with Md for it. She did mention that most people who undergo the procedure do swell up and down for the first 6 months and that it would be normal and that I would probably be taken back by the changes," but not to worry about it as the swelling is normal. She did say that i would be able to contact her nurse after the procedure for any questions or concerns. I am wondering if you have that option; contacting the nurse from the facility where you had your procedure done? Maybe they can answer your questions, address issues and provide some psychological comfort.

Hello, I live in Phila. too and I had smart lipo done six months ago. What doc did you go to? I went to Dr. Francis Physician Body Solutions. I too had swelling for weeks and I had to massage my stomach every day for ten mins. The swelling went down eventually, it took about a month. My stomach has improved since doing the lipo but I still had access fat that I want to get rid of. I have an appointment with my doc. in Jan. to see if he can take out this additional fat that was left behind.

That is ridiculous that your doctor is 'angry' because you have concerns and need some help to work through them. Remember you PAID for this procedure and you deserve good aftercare as well. I think you should ensure the doctor sees you and assures you that everything is normal. Good luck.

have your attorney contact them. i,ll bet they,ll have time for you then.

Yes you wont see FULL results until 6 months. My uncle has been doing smartlipo for 4 years with NO complaints.

Thanks for all the info ...I had smartlipo 4 weeks ago and i still don't see the results I feel i should ..my stomach is still round and i've ony lost 5 pounds and 1 inch so far ....are your results any better now that it has been a few months?

I am so glad, that I read your review. I was thinking about making an appointment with this doctor. I am in the Philadelphia area and searching for a good doctor. Thanks for sharing.

I had smart lipo four days ago and the pain is in the high level. I do not like pain pills so I stop just on Tylenol. The skin bruising is visible and huge swelling. The pain has taken me to a higher level of though and how I let one of the deadly sins GLUTANI to take over my body. It is not just a procedure of the body it will make you think to take your body your Temple back into control. How far into the sin of gluttony did I have to go until I could only reach out to cutting my body? I do see some change but huge swelling you do need someone to help you at least for the first four days and I do see some distortion in the contour. But getting back to the mental it will be a great time under all that pain to get in touch with your mind and spirit and taking control of the demon that YOU have allowed into your temple at least for me it has helped me to get a grip I’m using the trauma of this pain I now feel to bring me into a healing not just of a thinner look but the realization on the deadly sin I let take over my temple for so many years. I will be doing much thinking and planning how to lower swelling with nutrition and I will keep posting on my recovery.

i went to the same dr and my stomach is big too and feel funny

i go for my frist check its being six weeks my stomach not as small as i was told very misleading i wish everyone would post the true
