I was working out regularly for over a year and could never get rid of the pooch in my upper (and especially) my lower an area. I became very discouraged and had given up. I considered my gym membership like some form of “fat tax”. Then I decided there had to be a better answer. I searched online and saw info on a tummy tuck but the surgery incision and down time made this procedure very unappealing to me. That’s when I decided to give Sono Bello a try. The staff were very helpful Tara did my consult and was honest and very clear on the areas that needed treatment. Sadie who works the front desk was always patient kind and helpful. Alicia was my bedside nurse took great care with me she kept me calm and her interaction with me made me feel like person not just a name on the chart. She was knowledgeable and thorough with her answers. Dr Muecke was a pure delight. She kept the procedure very light hearted and upbeat by reassuring me that she very good at her job and that I was a perfect candidate for the procedure in regards to my weight and body shape. Dr Muecke explained my procedure as she performed it from beginning to end and constantly check on my pain/discomfort level. Dr Muecke was so optimistic that I will have an excellent outcome that my mind is at ease. I can now continue on with my previous workout routine and Without the stubborn pooch I will be able to achieve the results I desired. I received laser loop to my upper and lower abdomen just yesterday and already even with my initial wrap still on I can already feel the “emptiness”in my upper abs. I would highly suggest Dr Muecke for laser liposuction. Updated on 2 Jun 2018: The results that I am seeing are really mind boggling. In just 3 short days my waist is totally transformed! I did have areas of bruising that ranged from light to very darkly discolored. Now those areas just range from very light to a medium color. I can see my ribs in certain areas already!! Although I still have swelling all over, I can already picture my results.Im kind of upset with myself for not taking before pictures because it’s hard to even visualize my stomach pre laser liposuction and a visual would really help with my anxiousness to see my final results. I know they are going to be absolutely wonderful. Dr Muecke @ Sono Bello in Brookfield Wi is truly in her zone performing Laser Liposuction. Updated on 8 Jun 2018: I would like to start off by thanking Nurse Nykee!!!! She handled my first pre op and I was a nervous wreck with 10,000 questions and shaky hands and she handled herself like a Pro. She was calm and reassuring as well as patient and kind. I had a family emergency and had to leave without completing our appointment and she still held her cool. I work with people and I understand the professional strength she had to use to not show any irritation with me and I applaud her for her wonderful attitude! Well it has been ten days now and I am swollen hard as a rock! I was repeatedly told about the swelling from nursing staff (Tara, Nykee, Alecia, Angela) surgeon(Dr Muecke) and reviews but Let’s just say until you live with it you won’t understand it. I have never had this much swelling in my entire life and I guess it really attests to the trauma I endured in my lipo areas. The body is wonderful at healing and protecting itself. Although a bit uncomfortable the swelling is more annoying then painful for two reason for me. One because it obviously is hiding my absolutely amazing shape under there! I mean in my areas were the swelling has subsided I am already so small it puts a smile on my face so I can only image the great results yet to be uncovered! Reason number two is that bending and twisting is made a bit painful and awkward from the swelling. There are only small areas that still hurt but not consistently just to the touch. I am already fitting in clothes that I haven’t worn in many many years and I look awesome!! Friends and family can see the improvement and have made comments about how nice I look even though some have no idea I even had lipo. I have been watching my meal portions, I’ve drastically cut back on snacks and I’m staying away from soda completely. I have been using the stairs in my home for workout and walking every opportunity I get to help with toning. My biggest concern is that my sides won’t match my front and I will look square so I have been just doing a few squats and side bend type of exercises gently. Overall I believe that nurses like Nykee and Alecia at Sono Bello who are honest and straight forward about what to results to expect from the procedure and what to expect from yourself really helped me to get through this process without a worry or regret.
is $8,000+ worth it? Sonobello - Brookfield, WI ask a lot of questions and get clear understanding about what is involved in the procedure, definite guidelines on how to take care of self after procedure as swelling and bruising occur which afterward a lymphatic drainage massage recommended but they don't know where to have this done so you need to do all the research yourself and pay $100 for 60 minutes and need more than once. Find out about all additional costs as the compression garments are not covered so be prepared for $150 and buying more Arnica Montana ODT with Arnicare cream online as you only get one of each supplied and don't ask for additional opioid pan medications even though you will need them! dr gellis is not recommended uncaring not professional just rush in/out (check out Rip off/Scam website before going to Sonobello)
