I just turned 35 years old and decided to have liposuction after a lot of very serious research, searching for the right doctor and Dr. David Amron ended up being my choice as a surgeon since he has a ton of experience, he doesn't sell anything and so obviously cares about his work. In my opinion, he is the best in LA hands down. I spent serious time researching the procedure itself, medical journals, Real Self and blogs, forums and magazines etc. I then met with multiple surgeons all over LA to ask lots of questions and make sure I knew the risks, downtime, expectations for results and costs.
Dr. David Amron sculpted my flanks, upper back, upper and lower abdomen and I came out same day with no pain, little inconvenience from the surgery and actually was at work the day after next. I have heard others had bruising and heavy swelling etc but I have to say - my mom stayed with me for the surgery and post - and I looked amazing within a few days! My waist has never been so defined and little and I feel like my body is shaped like a models now which certainly never was the case before. I know that I will still see more results as I am only a little over 4 months - but I would be happy with my results now. He sculpted my perfect shape and I have never been so happy with such a serious choice. My mom is even considering lipo (with Dr. Amron) now because it was such a simple and pleasant experience. I do think everyone should take time to understand what they are walking into - and make sure they choose the right doctor - not procedure. Dr. David Amron is amazing if you are in the LA area. His staff is really nice and his nurses are extremely professional which put me at ease.
I am happy to answer any questions too off line for anyone that is considering the procedure. I will also ask for my before photos and post with after at my next follow up appointment.

Alw, you really do look great!!! I am considering Dr. Amron also. Can you tell me what kind of lipo you had? Was it just tumescent or Smart lipo or something else? Thanks again for your review! I hope my results can come close to yours!!

He did a wonderful job. I only had my upper and lower abs done - certainly not the results you had. My PS did not take out enough fat and needless to say, I will have to have a revision to even get where I want to be. Happy for you and your results.

I apologize for the delayed response here with photos but I have been traveling and haven't been back for my post-op photos. I decided to just take some myself so you all can see my progress. I am super happy with it still and you can see there are scars but they are fading really fast. My weight is still around the same (within a lb. or lb and a half max) as before the surgery. I don't think the photos quite give justice to how nice my shape actually is but I am alone and using a computer and bad lighting so hope it helps you ladies a bit!

You look great! Do you mind sharing your pre and post op height and weight? Your shape is fabulous though, congrats! :)

I am 5'6'' and was 143 lbs. I am now depending on the day 141-143 lbs. I am very muscular so my weight is always a bit higher than it seems like it should be when I tell other people.

Thank you for answering :) I am glad to hear that your weight is still about the same. I was starting to think I must be slowly gaining weight since I am pretty much the same weight as before the surgery. It just seems weird that they can take out almost 2 lbs of fat but my weight didnt go down 2 lbs. Well it did for about 3-4 days but now I am pretty consistently the same as before. Anyway, again you do look great!

Your photos look great! I too have just finished my lipo adventure in LA, however am yet to see the results. Would love to see some more photos of how your recovery is progressing.

Apology for never seeing the comment section asking what type of Lipo so long ago! It was traditional lipo and then Smart lipo for skin retraction at the end. FYI, Amron and all the good docs I talked to explained the type was less important and the actual work and experience of the doctor was what mattered most. With the technologies today in lipo, I would trust a top rated doc will have the best equipment and you want him using what he is most comfortable with for you.
Hi there, welcome and thanks so much for sharing your experience with us!
I'm so glad everything went well and you got the results you were looking for! Are you still happy with your results, now it's been another couple of months post-op?
We'd love to see a before/after photo, if you have any you feel comfortable sharing.
I'm so glad you're still enjoying your results and wow, your mom also considering it is definitely a testement to how effective it was for you!
Looking forward to seeing your pics! It's awesome that so many people, like you, share their stories, but I also think that sometimes photos speak a thousand words and then you get to really picture the difference it has made to someone!
