Hello! I got Smart Lipo 1/24/19 and my recovery was great for the first month and a half. I felt so confident... Then I started unhealthy habits like drinking every week for a little over a month due to personal stuff I was going through and it’s catching up to me. My stomach isn’t as flat anymore and my curvy waist is going away. I can see the difference and I’m wondering is there anyway I can go back to how I was like 3 weeks ago? Is it too late to get back to that look?
