  • Posted to I want to keep my compression garment off aim sick of it !,!,!! on 8 Jun 2012

    Wow! I had my flanks and abs/lower abs done. I still have my c section scar and a bit of more stretched out skin above it - which I figured. But I keep getting tighter! I find myself missing my compression suit after the day of not wearing it. I have also noticed if I wear certain shorts that are mid rise, my belly conforms!! Which is not good. I figure I still have some fluid and need to keep wearing it as much as I can to get the shape down pat! I am loving my new belly!! I put on a bathing suit yesterday and I found that my mind is remembering my old belly and then I look down to see it not there! I am thinking that women/men who go through gastric bypass surgery and lose so much weight have such issues like this - on a grander scale.... its hard to get my mind wrapped around it all still.... its been two weeks and 2 days since my surgery. It sure has made me watch even more of what I eat! I wish others that have posted have had better experiences like we have had.

    i just had mine done May 23 and completely happy. You are in good shape and doesn't look like much needs to be taken off. I had a small tire and a c section area that has always bothered me. My doc made that all go away! I would research and go in for a consultation.
  • Posted to how easy is it to hide that you received smart lipo? on 1 Jun 2012

    I LOVE what I had done! I had smartlipo may 23 for my upper/lower abs and flanks. Lost 2 inches so far. LOVE IT!! Doc got out 4lbs of fat! Not including what will be naturally expelled from my body. I won't complain about the garment.... although the procedure was really easy (and boy was I drugged!), it still takes it out of you for a good week. I am not bruised anymore. I still have tenderness and numbness on both sides. But man, two days after for my follow up, I was blown away! I would do it again. I will work hard on keeping this new waist of mine. I live in Huntsville, Al and my doc was Dr Lappert.
    A funny story about the leaking fluids - my husband was putting on the pads the wrong way. lol! I was wondering why I was leaking so much! He is so funny.

    I have been rotating between a sweat belt and the garment. I get itchy and it gets hot here in Alabama. I am waiting for my spanx to come in. Maybe find something like that. It does get irritating!
  • Posted to How much did you all pay for only your abdomen? on 1 Jun 2012

    Hi! I live in Huntsville, Al and my doc did upper/lower abs and flanks for 3,500.00. I paid all up front for a 10% discount. So really it was 3,800.00 at first. He did great!!
