Liposonix: Stories

After coolsculpting to flatten my muffin top, which turned out really well, I decided to try liposonix to reduce my little bulge/saddlebag on each side of my thighs. At the time I also thought perhaps it could tighten my thighs and improve my appearance, but when I went in for a final confirmation I was told the procedure was unlikely to work well given my lack of fat, and smoothing the cellulite in my thighs would probably be more appropriate for velashape, but hat the liposonix would work for my flanks and the saddlebags.

I decided to go for it. I got the procedure done in early Dec. I was given a pain pill (Demerol) and a shot for pain. My doc reviewed the areas to be targeted, the esthetician marked my squares -- two squares on each flank and on each saddlebag area -- and then the procedure started. I had no pain, could feel the heat, and the experience was definitely tolerable. I was able to go back to work and have a normal day.

Post procedure I had minor bruising on my saddlebags that disappeared after 3 weeks. I was told the procedure would not show full effects for 3 months so I will post the results then. In the meanwhile, if I had to do I all over again I would.probably still give it a go.
