Hello! I had my outer thighs treated on May 7 & 8 (had to do one side a day 2 hours each side). Procedure overall was not painful at all, a little discomfort first 10 minutes and then I just felt numbness in the treated area. First few days post treatment were fine, just a little sourness and numbness (which is a bit weird combination)). On day 5-6 It started to itch as well as burning & stinging sensations intensified. Today is my day 9 post procedure and I am at most discomfort levels I have been since I had it done. It is tolerable, but definitely not something I can just ignore - combination of burning, itching, stinging and numbness at the same time. I am looking forward to all these sensations going away)) it woke me up few times during last couple of nights. At this point, I can say procedure itself and recovery for me - it is not a big deal at all if Only I will start seeing results in couple of weeks!;)) I am hopeful;)) all i am trying to loose is 1,5 - 2 inches from my overall hip size. Will provide update in few weeks

Good luck! I weigh the same, but I am 5'5, very muscular, working out 5 days/week. However, my legs look very much like your posterior pic. I hope the best results for you, and will follow your progress. ( I am 43).

Thanks so much for sharing! I am 45 and have dimpling of cellulite at the top sides of my legs. Do you feel it is helping that? WOuld you have time to post another photo sometime soon in a bikini or underwear again? I am debating whether this will work for my outer legs. Thanks so much for posting! You look great!

Pain is gone, areas treated still tender to touch. I am continuing with my normal diet & exercise routing. The only difference I am trying to drink more water. I don't see any difference yet in appearance, but it is still too early.

I'm following your thread as I am considering getting this done on my stomach and inner thighs as well. I have had traditional lipo in the past (on my flanks and outer thighs) which also requires a bit of detoxing to help improve results. I highly recommend looking into anti-inflammatory foods and teas and avoiding excess salt. They do wonders in eliminating excess fluid!! My favorites are dandelion root tea, fresh lemon water with a little fresh ginger stirred in. Sounds crazy, but it definitely helped me! Can't wait to hear more of your results!
