So I am in the pre op stage and I will be showing you guys the before pictures I will update as we continue. But I can tell you That in my pre consultation they were super friendly not pushy at all and got me scheduled very quickly. In my presurgery appointment the nurse who took care of me with super friendly put me at ease and the Dr. Was also very friendly and made small chat answered any questions and explained what to expect the following day. Updated on 8 Jan 2021: So for the most part the procedure didn't hurt. When the Dr got close to my belly button and spine it hurt a lot and I was crying. The nurses and Dr were very sympathetic and my nurse held my hand and stroked my hair to help me get through it. They were very gentle in helping me get up. I started making right away and even before I left they had to change the pads. During the night I soaked through more of my pads and towels. My compression garment got so soaked we needed to wash it. My pain is fine as long as I'm laying down. Getting up and down is painful, once I'm walking around it isn't bad. No pictures yet. When I get ready to shower I'll post more Updated on 10 Jan 2021: I'm able to get up out of chairs and be much easier now. There's still pain but I haven't had to use a pain pill. I actually took a shower which felt great but my back felt really tight. I'm glad I did it though. Updated on 12 Jan 2021: So today I was hurting a lot. The nerve pain was very painful. I had to take the pain pills and use an ice pack. I also think I had a fever but couldn't find my thermometer. After cold compress and Tylenol I feel much better. Still looking good though. Updated on 12 Feb 2021: I'm wearing completely regular clothing now and I think I'm looking good! I can't wait for it to go down further. I still get zings but it's not bad. The pictures are right after the surgery and now. Updated on 3 Mar 2021: I'm feeling good and love the way I look. The skin on my stomach is still pretty loose but hopefully it'll tighten up more. I'm using a tighter compression garment and an ab board. I'm also trying firming cream to help it tighten up quicker. Updated on 13 Apr 2021: So I still have the pooch above my belly button. It looks like I have cellulite. I did stop wearing the compressing garment about a week ago. I'm still living the result but the skin from above my belly button to under my breasts is loose. Hopefully that will shrink.

The pics are two days before Sono bello laser lipo of upper and lower abdomen, hips and flanks. My life got waaay out of control. Dr Saxon will be doing the surgery, and thankfully with local only. I do have a high pain tolerance, but still edgy about what I expect. Updated on 17 Jun 2019: So this was what he removed???? almost three liters. Pain was tolerable. Updated on 17 Jun 2019: I had upper and lower abdomen, waist and hips. On the Percocet around the clock as well as the arnica sub lingual. Pain is really bad now...almost as if I’m being ripped apart...no lie. It’s really bad and I have a high pain tolerance. Went and got my hair done, did some grocery shopping then crashed.

The entire staff and Dr. Saxon were unbelievably kind and supportive! I can’t say enough about the entire experience. The recovery the first few days was more than I had anticipated; however, I never felt I needed to take any type of narcotic to get me through it. I’m VERY pleased with the results! I had upper and lower abdomen and hips done and I’m liking what I’m seeing already! Kudos to everyone at Sono Bello of Las Vegas!

I’m four days post surgery and I’m moving around very well. I had tummyEx, upper abs, waist and hips treated. Surgery went well,I was very sore about afterwards, but I was fine after ibuprofen. I have not taken any narcotics post procedure just ibuprofen/Tylenol regimen. I returned the work two days after surgery. I’m still sore and following the physicians orders. The LV team took great care of me!

The amazing staff over at Sonobello changed my life! I never thought o would enjoy looking at my stomach again, but I love what I see in the mirror. The compliments I receive and the double take strangers give me have boosted my confidence level. Thank you Sonobello!!

Not good. Waste of my time. I sat through the financial presentation with the office representative. I paid $2500 up front, in advance. After my card was charged I get an email stating the doctor cannot do surgery on transgender patients. I am embarrassed, disappointed and demoralized after this experience. These people could not have the decency and professional courtesy to call me and explain why. All I can say is they are judgemental and unprofessional. Avoid.
