Hello everybody???? So I'm getting lipo done on June 9 on my back, flanks, inner/ outer thigh and a little on arms. My PS is Enrique Hanabergh. He's very polite and answered all my concerns. His office staff had great customer assistants. I worked with Alejandra who answered all my emails and phone call right away. I want to get this surgery for myself improvement and want to get rid of extra fat that is resistant to exercise after having children. I'm not looking for perfection just want to look and feel like the old me before children. I have an average curvy body with thick legs and small waist. As my surgery days come closer my anxiety grows. So nervous about the pain and post op experience. For last month I've been obsessed with realself and have tried to get as info on my lipo procedure. Please comment on your experience and question you have for me. I will be posting pictures and journey as to help others. I think it important to communicate and educate each for much needed support. Hope to hear from other and good luck to you all????

Here are my before pics. Picture do no justice. My butt is much bigger and I look heavier in person. The truth is that curvier women in general look heavier with clothes on. I have more issues with my body when it comes to clothes but we cant walk around naked all day can we. Hopefully this surgery will give me more confident when I looking for clothing to wear. Actually feel more comfortable cause I'm that kind of person who doesn't like when people stare at me. I'm just a little more reserve like that???? Lol

What type of Lipo is he doing? Are you doing local or general anesthetia?
May 19, 2016
I'm doing standard lipo with general anesthesia. How about you?
May 19, 2016
I did water jet assisted with local. But the first time I did standard with General.
May 19, 2016
How did that procedure work for you?
May 19, 2016
2007 traditional with General- went well. About a week to recover. I remember having numbness for a loooong time. I was young and dumb and didn't keep up with nutrition and fitness so I gained a lot back, mostly in my mons pubis. Last week water assisted with local- awesome. I feel like I'm recovering faster with less swelling. I thought because I was a little older it may take longer. I had lots of areas done including the mons pubis. I'm already loving the results. Now after tons of research I'm seeing that lots of women later after any Lipo find that their mons either gets better or just looks bigger because everything became smaller. Many doctors say you should add that on if you're doing upper and lower abs to avoid it. I can't agree more.

May 19, 2016

Im finally starting to feel well. I can't see a little bit of improvement but I'm still so swollen. I have faith things will look better.
June 10, 2016
How did it go?
June 19, 2016
It was done in Nee Life but I'm pretty sure he will do the surgeries in other locations.
June 20, 2016
Hello, How was surgery at New Life? It seems so busy there! I met and really like Dr. Hanabergh. How was the general anesthesia? Did you feel sick waking up from the surgery due to the anesthesia? Also, what area's did you have the lipo? You look great so far!
