"30 Year Old with Daily Running and Exercise That Would Not Get Rid of the Muffin Top" - Livingston, NJ

I am an active everyday runner, and spend at least on hour every day exercising, and I still could not loose my muffin top. I was very self conscious about how i looked in certain outfits and wear baggy clothing most of the time to hide it. With only being 30 I didn't really think I needed to be doing plastic surgery. Dr. Lee was amazing at explaining the procedure and aftercare to me. He was very patient and took his time and let me ask him lots of questions with out feeling rushed. I was very nervous about being under anesthesia but Dr. Lee informed me that he did the procedure in his own surgical suite in his office and he used local anesthesia so I would be awake the whole time(that kind of freaked me out, but he assured me I would not feel a thing.) He went thru the steps that I would be going thru if I chose to have the procedure done. When it came time for him to show me the needle that he would be using to inject me with the local anesthesia I freaked out! It was huge!!! He then said that if i was uncomfortable with that needle he would use smaller ones. He did inform me that this would take a longer time to inject the area he was going to be working on, but he would be happy to do that so I would be comfortable. I decided to go ahead with the surgery and even booked it for the following week. The day of the surgery I was a nervous wreck but also very excited. I got to the office and his office staff made me feel very comfortable and even had some hot tea and a light snack for me to eat before the procedure. For my own comfort they also blocked off that whole day for me so I was the only patient Dr. Lee was taking care of. His surgical suite was very clean and comfortable, they even had a pillow for my head since i was going to be in the same position for a long time. They asked if I would rather listen to music or they could put a movie on for me to watch. Dr. Lee was talking to the the whole time during the surgery, making sure I was okay and if I was comfortable. The surgery took about 3 hours. I am very satisfied with my results and no longer hide my body. I highly recommend Dr. Lee for liposuction, and any other cosmetic procedure you might be thinking of having. You will not be let down!
