Bodytite on abdomen and flanks 12/20/17

WORTH IT$4,950
I am 48 years old and over the last 2 years I have lost over 40 pounds. For the most part I am pleased with how far I have come. One area that has bothered me is my abdomen. I gained 70 pounds during pregnancy (18 years ago ????) and as you will see in the pre op pictures I have a large pannus and considered a tummy tuck. Due to my obligations at work, the recovery time seemed unrealistic. After meeting with my Doctor and discussing my expectations, I decided to do the Bodytite procedure.
I had my procedure today. So far so good! I had my abdomen and flanks done and am a little sore but nothing unbearable.
I will post pictures throughout my recovery!

Day after update

I am a little sore today. Nothing unbearable at all. I noticed that there are some areas that appear burned under my “roll” of fat. Doesn’t bother me at all. I am hoping that is a sign of some intense work done in that area. I posted a pic of one of the 4 tiny incisions. The others are still a bit hidden under the roll. I weighed this afternoon after my shower and I am down about a pound and a half which I was surprised considering the swelling. Very little bruising. I stayed home from work today but plan to go back tomorrow. So far, so good!

I thought you aren't supposed to see results for a couple months? how do you see a difference in 2 days?

I think the difference is from the lipo. The skin tightening is gradual. He did regular lipo with the bodytite procedure.
