I just had a beautiful little girl 18 months I gain about 40 pounds and it's time to get back in shape and better health for myself first and my daughter and husband I always been alittle over weight most of my life and it's time for a change I had a c section with my daughter so I kinda feel like I can't handle anything pros about this sergury a kick start to better Health and being able to run around with my little girl a new me a new body cons I am so scared of needles you would think after all the blood that was taking from me during pregnancy I would be use to it nope still scared I'm alway alittle scared about the dr being in another county because I hope he is about the art of recreating instead of just the money did a lot of research and I haven't see any negative press on him anyways I want to share my journey with everyone cause I know how it is when your doing research for dr how it help alot to read real life story

My experience with this dr was amazing he was like a brother her came in the room and explain what he think will work with my body type her made me feel so freaking comfortable its amazing the only thing that was bad was the staff at the hospital they had the biggest attitude and after surgery when you need them the most they made you feel like you shouldnt dare ask for help they cuss in spanish and though i didnt know but what they didnt relize was you always lean the curse words the dr assistant took care of that problem she reported it to the head of the hospital and the lady herself came down and took a report and said sorry for that

So it been about 8 month after the surgery and this is the part everyone want to know about I gain the weight back in my stomach but the love handles I have not my posture is much better would I do this surgery again hell no why because after the surgery what you never read about is the intense pain you cannot lay down on you back front only sides but not long cause it get numb but to turn over it takes 30mins unless you can bear pain 10x bad the compression garment is so tight I feel myself not able to take a full breathe but it is necessary cause without it everything hurts even more without it this is after surgery it gets better after a week or 2 now that's just the first part after about 2 to 3 months in there a intense itching that's so insane nothing help I buy lotion from a-z spray anti itch this anti itch that nothing work if you take a shower it helps for the length of the shower I friend told me to buy a heating pad and that work for about 20mins I use to use it be4 I go to bed but the itching wake you up that's how intense it is I scratch my skin so hard one time it break it this last for about a month and a half

This is quite funny that u would say this lipo suction isn't created for weight loss it's to tighten whatever u can't accomplish in the gym as in u still have to work out eat correctly and maintain what u paid for! If u never hit the gym after the surgery u will gain ur belly back it's only natural!

And if you had a hard time after surgery why give out your dr info???? I'm surprised ppl asked lol!

Key word I had a hard time after surgery everyone deal with pain different the result was amazing but I cry even if I get a cut and this wasn't no cut .... If people want to know who did the surgery so they could stay away or still do it n they ask me ill give it to them weird comment
