I am 5'2" and I weigh 138 pounds. I had a baby last year and although I have lost all the baby weight, my abdomen is still big. I researched about the smartlipo and the reason I wanted to do it is because it claims that your skin can be tighten. I am afraid of doing it because I have read that it can be painful and I am afraid of the pain. I have my procedure on October 25. Hopefully, I am going to be happy because I feel that I am expending a lot of money in this procedure.

Hang in there girl:-). It gets better. I'm at 5 months post op and still healing. Start massaging as soon as you can stand it and wear your garment all the time. Happy Healing.

I still waiting for the results. I took this picutes 11 days after the procedure.. I haven't had any problem at all. No pain during the procedure and easy recovery. The hardest part is wearing the garment.

You look on track to me for a great result. Hang in there. Wear your garment and drink lots of fluids. Ask your doctor if using a rolling pin (lightly) to help smooth out any bumpiness is ok. It worked really well for me (still does when knots appear).

what is a rolling pin? I will ask her on Friday.
November 8, 2012
Oh, a rolling pin is what one uses to roll out dough when making cut-out cookies or when making a pie crust. They are wooden, usually, and can be found wherever you buy kitchen appliances/tools.

You are still very early in after the surgery. I used a hand held massager to help with the swelling and lumps. Your waistline is already looking great!

Thank you..I will keep wearing the garment for al lest one more month. I didn't want to spend more money but I am going to buy the garment 2 stage..It that doesn't help, I don't think it will harm.

yes, i agree. you want the skin to attach to the muscle and straighten out. your shape looks very nice. I hope wearing the garment smooths and evens things out for you.

The stage 2 garment will really help. Also I recommend Design Veronique. It's a really good quality and flattens everything. Also, it takes about four months to see really good results and flattening. Happy healing
