Horrific Experience

I wasn’t sure I would ever write this review if I’m being honest. I don’t dislike the results (wish they were better for suuuure) which made me feel guilty about saying something negative but the truth is that this experience traumatized me. First off, my start time was supposed to be 1pm and I followed instructions for arrival time to the t. I waited for five hours before I was even getting prepped. The nurse didn’t know how to put in an iv and dug with the needle under my skin four times before getting someone else who put it in my wrist by my thumb???? When they started fluid through it I felt shooting pain and they said “it shouldn’t hurt” I had to argue to have it moved. Once the procedure started I realized quickly I could feel a lot and it only worsened as we went. When I was in tears they finally offered me more pain killers when Dr. Spivak sarcastically said “remember you asked for this” in the meanest tone I could imagine at that point. I don’t know why I could feel it all, but I could. I’ve had my boobs done and no pain I’ve felt will ever come close to that. I actually broke my thumb two weeks ago and laughed it off because my idea of pain is so extreme from this procedure. They force you to have arranged pickup from the surgery and I even used the service they suggested where they call the facility when you’re almost done and the driver picks you up….. at 11pm during my surgery they asked me to deal with the driver being confused about pickup….. because my picky was 6pm and it was 11pm!!!! Wow. I didn’t get out until midnight at which point they literally slapped pads on me and stuck me in a garment completely covered in blood and chunks of fat. I spent 1200 for my room that I only got to stay in for a few hours because I selected a window based on me being there at 6pm. You might be scared to go under but if it’s between that and Squlpt…. Save yourself from a horrific experience and get better results in the process.
