It Was Well Worth It!

ORIGINAL POST

I had traditional liposuction about 2 years ago...

WORTH IT$10,000

I had traditional liposuction about 2 years ago and had my chin, arms, abdomen, inner thighs, back and butt done. I was in extreme pain for days not to mention nasuea and severe bruising.

I decided to go in again for liposuction but this time tried smart lipo. I just had my arms, butt, upper and lower back, abdomen and inner thighs done just yesterday, and besides being a little sore, I am up walking around!

I couldnt be happier.. smart lipo is truely a less invasive procedure and well worth it. I just cant wait to see the results!

One thing though, I have a few blisters on my inner thighs from the laser because the skin is so thin there. Other than that I coldnt be happier. When they say you can go back to work the next day, I am living proof!

i also went to this Dr. I went 6 weeks ago. What a great staff! The hardest part is waiting for the results just as you mentioned!

I just went in for my first consult with Dr. G, on Fri. How long do you think it will be before you upload pics? I am looking at a total body tighting!!! Breast aug., smartlipo on lower &upper abs, flanks, inner thighs. I just cant get my body tight. I would love to see your pics, before I decide how much to get done.

wow, lots of work. Are you nervous? Did he have lots of good words to inspire you on your new body? I have a consult with him this Thursday. I'm totally not sleeping at night just thinking about it.

I have a follow up appt this Thurs, where they may take pics, they didnt take them om my last visit probably because it was so soon. Ill ask him.... Dr and his staff are so wonderful and kind and made me feel so comfortable. I told them that I will definately be a repeat offender. Ya know, I have the same problem as you. I am 31 and just feel that my body isnt as tight as it used to be. Although I expected to see immediate results from the smart lipo as far as skin "tighenting" as it states it does, I really have yet to see it (keep in mind I am about 11 days out)However, a picture tells a thousand words, so I will really be able to tell how effective the tighenting truley was when I see the pics.

OMG, maybe i'll see you there on Thursday. I'm going for a consult with Dr. G. I'm excited and nervous. I try not to think about the money my vanity is costing me but he's having a spring special so fingers crossed it all sounds good.

How bad were the blisters on the inner thighs? Did you take pictures of them when you got home?
