Before surgery i worked out everyday i weighed 169 body fat 12 percent. I wanted to look like the people in magazines. So i got my love handles upper and lower abs done with ab sculpting. I wonder if my results will look better than my before photos. Looking back i was fine before this procedure. Its been 5 days since procedure i see no results and bloated. I hope i didnt mess myself up

Not sure why you messed with perfection, but I can tell you, the after is swelling. it will go down, be patient.

Exactly what i was thinking. Now I'm hitting the gym harder and eating pretty clean so i can make sure i see results. But as of now its going on 2 weeks. And i really don't see a difference. Oh well. I'll just stay positive

Hi terry951, thanks for sharing your journey. keep wearing your CG are you having MLD massage to help your body get rid of the additional swelling? I'm only 6 days post op and my CG is my new BF really helping with the swelling. My massage feels really weird with my tummy still being numb, sore but you can feel it doing you good (like pushing yourself with a workout). Keeping your fluid up will also help. I was told main swelling will be there for a good 8 weeks but can be up to 3 months with body at 80-90% results but depending on what type of healer you are it can take a full 12 months. What does your doc say?

No those pictures are accurate. I'm working out now not sore any more i wear my garment 23 hours a day. I wanted my love handles done and lower fat out my lower abs. I guess i was going for perfection. My mid abs are still hard tho from the swelling but my i think I'm 75 percent healed with still no results

I was conversing doing laser lipo to tightening my skin on my belly area after traditional lipo but I don't want it to look worse than what it already looks like. I could tell from day 3 in my results from traditional. Prolly would have noticed the first night but I was told to get my garment on til the 3rd day. I hope u get the results u went in for!!!

Hey brandy, I also was worried about skin tightening on my stomach and my doctor did cellulaze on my stomach. You should follow me to see the tightening results. He did cellulaze on the same area as smartlipo. I can kinda see a difference already. The texture feels different and a bit more smoother. My lax skin came from a pregnancy. I hop you get the results you are after and happy healing :)
