Hi Kristy Thank you so much :) It was not that bad at all hurt to stand for a long period of time but not bad enough to need any pain medications at all the only icky part was the leakage :)

Thank you LipoinPDX Not really from the lipo it's self I use to joke that he didn't take any out he just pushed it around lol I fit my clothes better after but I lost about 20 lbs after not from the lipo though from weight lifting and ALLOT of cardio after getting it done it just encouraged me to work out even more

So After I saw My new doctor Sassan Alavi, He said I am not a candidate for a tummy tuck because it's all fat left over from Dr. Carli. I know there is no 100% garantie with plastic surgery but when a Doctor refuses to do touch ups and try's to talk you into a more expensive and painful surgery it's just bogus. Now I know the work he did came out pretty damn good but I this it could have been ALLOT better on the abs I guess I was one of the lucky one if you Google carli's Name you will see what I mean and how he treated his other patients just as bad as me.

Thanks for sharing before and after photos. I'm thinking about doing this- but a little scared that it'll come back after. Surprised to hear that you didn't really see weight loss from the surgery?

As long as you exercise it wont come back :) and it dose not go somewhere else like allot of people think lol From what doctors have told me and what I have read where ever the suck the fat out of it will never come back you can gain weight in other places but where they took it out it suppose to never come back :)
