Liposuction Revision

WORTH IT$6,000
It's been a little over a year since my procedure and I've decided to move forward with a revision due to an uneven abdomen. There is a shelf of fat above my belly button that looks like a roll and overall the abdomen could use some smoothing.
The Dr. is going to perform the revision on August 21st at no charge of his time - only the anesthesia and facility fee = $1,500.
Still waiting on my 1 year post-op photos from the office staff but will share as soon as I receive.

Please share pix. I'm considering this surgery. Would you recommend?
Thank you SO much for your updates! So informative and helpful
I was doing the smart lipo with Dr. Truong on the 21st of August at 0700 - same day as your revision. Hopefully yours went well.

Skinniest in the mornings

Love the way I look in the morning. My stomach is flat as a board. Except my flanks are still there a bit. I get bigger throughout the day and swell. Still a bit sore. Lumps come and go.

Please understand you are ONLY one month out with a long way to go! As I tell all of my Smart Lipo patients, the intermittent swelling is normal at this stage and can last up to 6 months. Patience is the key. With Smart Lipo, you will experience the benefit of additional fat destruction from the laser which you won't even see until 3 months out. Also your incisions will continue to fade as they always do. Patience is the key. I'm happy you were confident enough to wear a bikini one month post, but the final result is a long way off! See you at your next post-op!
Any photos so we can see the progress :)
any more updates?
hi! do you have after photos?
Any more updates and photos? You're almost to 1 year since your procedure:)

3 weeks

I went in vacation this past weekend and was in a bikini most of the time.. It was VERY hard to hide the incisions. They are placed too high on my lower abdomen, too low on my mid back and too high above my buttocks.

I am still noticing that I am skinniest in the mornings and not as much once I've eaten or drank anything. I am really looking forward to the Dr. taking "after" photos so I can really see the change (and post here for you).

Swelling is minimal. A little numb in certain places but not uncomfortable at all. Stopped taking Bromelian and Arnica about a week ago.
