Just What I Wanted! A Less Painful Lipo

4 Months Post-Op

WORTH IT$9,999
So I look better in clothes after four months post op. Wearing a bikini is still tough because my midsection still looks bumpy in the sun (see photo) and the lower pouch protrudes a bit, but not horribly. I’m going to try Emsculpt and if that doesn’t work, then I will see if carboxia injections on the stomach break that bumpiness up. Overall I’m glad I did air sculpt. My wounds are really lightening up.

You look great. I just received my results for my consultation I’m a little scared but like you I want some fat removal without painful surgery
It’s a little painful but worth it. You’ll quickly forget the painful month you had once you start fitting into your clothes nicely. That outweighs the pain. Lol. I would say the recovery was pretty smooth but I had realistic expectations. I knew it would be painful at first and I’d be very sore. Hated the girdle at night time but dealt with it.
My body is similar to yours, what I want is to make my pouch disappears for sure. I’d like a tummy tuck but if Elite can eliminate it than I’d be interested. Is your bottom pouch gone permanently ?
My bottom pouch is gone. But it was bumpy for a while. I had to do a lot of other treatments afterwards like the massages and elixis for skin tightening
Hi there. I’ve been reading a lot about airsculpt. Just out of curiosity, did the lumpiness on your abdomen go away? If so, what did you do to get rid of it?
The lumpiness only looks like that in the sun but the surgeon suggested ultherapy to tighten skin and I only had one session so can’t really tell.
Thank you for posting all your pictures. It was very helpful. I am actually on my way to surgery right now, so wish me luck.

10 weeks later

I am ready for the summer. Choosing to recover all winter long was a good decision since I had to wear my girdle for a while to make sure all the swelling goes down. I am happy with my results. Once the scarring clears up, I’ll be even happier. I prefer to look nice and feel confident with certain clothes on rather than have a few scars that will eventually lighten up.

What kind of girdle did you buy?
I bought a Colombian girdle that they sold at the place where I was getting my lymphatic drainage massages. I also got the foam that goes under the girdle. I’m sure you can find the same ones on Facebook these days
Hey can you message me on facebook Jacey Noska
Omg. This looks so good. How much did you pay?
Hi! You look amazing!! How long did you wear the girdle? And are you still super happy with the results?

Before and After two weeks pics

Look at my before and after pics. They speak for themselves. I’m getting lymphatic drainage massages weekly and they seemed to help with the swelling. Feeling really good now. Still annoying to sleep with a girdle but I use the first girdle I had and then the smaller sized girdle I wear throughout the day.

You look so good omg!

I have a consult next month and I'm considered about some extra loose skin I have in the front of my belly and loss of skin laxity from pregnancy. It looks like you had some of that in your before but it doesn't show at all anymore in your after photos. Did the doctor say that would be a concern at all? They recommended a tiny tuck which I don't want to do.
Thank you!!! I didn't have loose skin although it might appear that way, I just had a lot of fat which caused a small crease on the upper and lower belly. I still have some small swelling on the lower belly. One side is raised more than the other, but I am getting carboxy injections at my post op treatment care center and it seems to be helping with that. The first injection I got when I was at 3 weeks post op was horrendously painful. I wailed. It burns for 20 seconds as it is penetrating through your lumpy areas but that's the only time it hurts. It does wonders though. I noticed that after one of those treatments, my swelling and lumpiness/hardness, went down tremendously.
You look fantastic and I'm happy for you! I bet you'll feel so much better in clothes which I am hoping! Is it really an easy procedure like they sell on tv in your personal opinion?
That’s really why I did it. I wanted to look better in clothing and I am. It’s a pretty easy procedure but it will hurt the first few days but not to the point that it’s unbearable. Mainly uncomfortable to sleep with a girdle all night. But only leakage one day and fast recovery.
Where did you go & what location? I'm so close to doing this.
I went to the location in nyc for a full abdomen fat removal.
Is this airsculpting?
Yes on full abdomen
You look great. I scheduled a consultation at the ATL office.
Good luck! I needed help with the girdle the first few days then I was fine. Do your post lymphatic massages:) and remember the stool softener beforehand.
I had my full abdomen done 5 days ago and it is still so swollen. When did your swelling start to subside? My surgeon said to wait 3 wks or so before doing a lymphatic massage. I am so swollen that I look bigger than before.
It’s ok to be swollen for a while. Definitely for two weeks or so. I remember 5 days in is difficult. You’ll be there!
Thank you for responding.
