Ok....it’s been 4 years but I actually meant to post this YEARS ago. I thought Dr Friedlander did a good job because my stomach went down. Unfortunately all of the fat came back within the first year even though I was told it wouldn’t.

Dr. Friedlander was 1 of 3 doctors I actually saw and 1 of 11 that I called. He gave a quick, honest and free consultation and sent me on my way. The day before the procedure, he personally called me to go over a few things and the day of he assured me that all was well and reiterated​ what he would be doing. The anesthesiologist was great as well. They all kept the spirit lighthearted and made it a little less terrifying. Although I had a few concerns, all in all I would definitely recommend his office.

The fat doesnt come back when they take majority of the fat cells. Unfortunately for bbw women lipo cannot remove everything at once because of the danger so if there is a lot of fat left then those fat cells are alive.
Exactly, she should loose weight before more Lipo.
I agree :)

Not too shabby

Although I still have a long way to go, liposuction was the jump start I needed. I've began working out and plan on having another procedure soon for my back. Please look over the dirty mirror...if I could retake the pic I would because that's a huge pet peeve!

So far so good!

So far I would really say it was well worth the money. I'm up and about, no pain but still swollen. I can see a change but right now I'm kinda lumpy because I knew nothing about the whole massage thing until I read it here. I feel like I need to "sculpt" my body on my own because so far I'm getting flatter but at the same time I'm oddly shaped. I'm trying not to read too much into it but at the same time I don't want to wait until it's too late to do anything. I went for my follow up today and he said I was fine....I guess it's my imagination!

It will get better. Good luck.
You look great! I'm plus size too with a different body shape but same type of abdomen. I'm researching Doctors now. Its nerve racking. I would like to have surgery in the U.S. but on this site there seems to be a lot of success with Doctors from the Dominican Republic with a more affordable rate. But, I'm scared in case something goes wrong later on during Post-op. I will definitely consider your Doctor. Thank you
