I had smart lipo done on my upper and lower abdomen and flanks. There were a total of six incursions points 2 on my lower back 2 on my sides and 2 on my lower belly. It doesn't look like they took any fat out of my upper abdomen. due to the fact that there appears to be a dip between the upper and lower abs. So I was curious to see how long the cannula used is to see if it could even reach the upper abs at the point is was inserted at. I will post pictures soon. Thank you for you help!!!
