Hi Bella, sorry it took me like 2 years to get back to you but I ended up busy with work and than became pregnant, so a few months after my surgery. For my back it recovered and looked good, however, this doctor sucked because he did a crappy job on my bra rolls because it is still there and it hurt so bad when he performed on my back, inner thighs, arms and knee fat, he hit rid of a banana roll on one side of my butt but did not do the same for the other. I think for my stomach it was worth it because even after pregnancy, my tummy is somewhat flat, I just need to get in shape. My hips are back to where they were and my inner theighs were shaped incorrectly. I am planning on going back to have them correct this once I drop 7 more pounds to be at the weight they last saw me so that they can evaluate it knowing it is not due to weight gain. I still have the burn marks where they stuck the laser in from, so both legs, theighs, hips back and arms have hole burnt marks. Dr.S was a nice guy but I feel he was energetic and ready give me a transformation and the next couple time I felt like he was just trying to get this over with. I would just be sure you sign up with a doctor that has more reviews and better reviews.

Sounds like you are doing your whole body.. You are brave! It was hard for me to get out of bed with my full abs and bra roll done. I dont think i could get out of bed if i did anything to my arms or legs in addition.. Happy healing. :)

Back bra roll, flanks and hips.

Gina anig
I went in this morning for my back bra roll, flanks and hips. I think my skin on my back was the most sensitive and it was pretty painful, and yes I did have a lot of moaning and low screams, it turns out my flanks area did not take the numbing medicine very well, it kept wearing off really fast. Dr. Shielder, the nurses and Louise are all amazing, they held my hand Abd tried their best to distract me to help with the pain. I will be posting before and after photos tomorrow as I am in too much pain today.

Update about my upper and lower abs, they are still swollen, it seems like the pain and bruisings are moving downward. The numbness has slowly gone away but its more painful and itchy. I have to get up all hours of the night to pee, the more you pee the better. I did not take any pain or water releasing pills, I feel it's better to strengthen your body when in pain or injured. Anyways, my stomach is puffy one day and flat the next so I think it has a lot to do with my sodium intake, I made that mistake once but never again, it actually hurts more so slower your sodium intake. Stay tuned I will post before and after pics tomorrow.

Congrats again, and let us know whether being consistent with lowering your sodium does the trick.  I've heard it helps some, but most people either do it or don't, as opposed to switching from one to the other.

Happy healing!!!

Lowering my sodium definitely helped the healing process and is less uncomfortable but I am still swollen

Congratulations and prayer for speedy recovery. I just want to know how you paid for this,, i need my bra fat, thighs and upper abs done, but I am trying to figure r out how to pay for this.
July 31, 2014
Hi. I paid about 7k in cash and the rest was financed through the clinic. No need to have good credit to get this. I owe another 3k but its not that bad.
July 31, 2014
Oh and thank you for the warm wishes. :)

Do you have to sleep on your stomach? It sounds painful. I am going to do my back.flanks,bra rolls,abs upper/lower and legs. I am so afraid. This will be done hopefully in Dec if the ps has an opening,it's all depends. Are you Happy with the results so far? I understand it takes 6 months but i like your back :) You're going back for more on Monday????????????????????????????????????????

Gina please check your pm i sent you 2 messages there

Hi. Yes, I am going back on Monday for my inner thighs, knees and upper arms. I like my results so far because after my check up yesterday, I was told I was still very swollen but they did tell me if I didn't like the results that they would fix it for me. The back was painful because my skin is much thicker on my back but I was allowed to sleep on my back. I would take at least 3 days off from work for wherever you have the thickest skin because healing takes longer. Also someone forgot to tell me to massage the areas I had work done on because the hardened areas will stay hard if you do not massage it. What is PM?
