Asked By:tiffany chowdhury in Long Island City, NY

I’m a Puerto Rican woman who is 5 foot 3 inches tall and 200lbs. I’m not so large up top with the exception of my chin upper arms and bra fat,small waist but I’m bottom heavy! I have a “fupa”with flanks that are problem & a muffin top & my thighs are on the larger side! I have tried it all and nothing works so it’s making me more depressed! Causing me to gain more rather than lose! Is laser lipo okay for all of this? Or will I have to stick to standard lipo with all the downtime and bruises!
