Does water-jet lipo leave any small permanent marks where they went in to pull the fat? Are there problems when doing the inner thighs, do they bruise, leave marks or anything? These are two areas id like to see go. I am 120 pounds, pretty fit and I can't seem to lose these areas and that has been throughout my life. How much weight do you typically lose when only doing lipo in the stomach and would I need to do upper and lower abs to that there aren't any differences between the two?
