I just had laser lipo and cellulaze of my inner/outer thighs and above my knees. I was given lidocaine injections at the start of the procedure but continued to feel pain. The doctor kept giving me more lidocaine but it wasn't taking the pain away. I could even feel the needle when he was stitching me up. The pain was so bad he had to stop the procedure.
