I used to be a small waisted female who always wanted to gain some weight.
I gained the weight but some came in unwanted areas.
I have been stalking and reading this site for the past 8 months,and have gained the courage to have some tickle lipo done.
I spoke with one Dr at Strax but was not impressed with his bedside manner.(in a rush,no question and answers session)
Did another consult with Dr T Pane,who took the time to answer my question and assured me that I am a great candidate.
Surgery set for 12/29/2014

Dr Randy Dean M.D is a surgeon who knows his craft very well. He has a nice smile which makes you feel comfortable and so relaxed to interact with him. During surgery he asks questions to make sure you are comfortable and explains exactly what he is going to do next. If I had to do this surgery again I would not hesitate to book an appointment with him . Thankfully so far I am loving what I am seeing so no need for seconds.

Anxious and nervous.

Last night I dreamt that I underwent the surgery.
I guess I was actually acting out in my sleep as hubby asked if I am in pain.lol
He is not supporting of my going in for this procedure but he is accepting that I need it for me.
I am on a borderline of anxiety and fear of what if nothing changes or I mess up my stomach.

I think that is normal. The day present I was sure I was going to die. The staff on that checkup date thought they were dealing with a crazy women. U will be wonderful. Anxiety will pass. Good luck.

I'm sorry your husband is not being supportive- we are here for you!  I agree that it is totally normal to be nervous about the surgery risks and results.

Funny how the tide turn.
My hubby is so attentive and caring regarding my care.
He has been by my side from the day of the surgery until Thursday he went back to work.
Each morning he helps me shower and clean my wound and make sure I am comfortable.
I just laugh on the inside as I remember how he swore he would not be helping me if I did the surgery.

I'm so happy to hear that.  Maybe he was just scared of something bad happening- sometimes men are as good at communication emotions as a grizzly bear.

With my breast augmentation, my husband was very much against it...It put a huge strain on us. My tummy tuck was a whole different story. He was 100% on board and wonderful about it. Now, with my want to get some lipo, he's not so much into it. I think it's very hard for men to feel the way we feel about it. It's hard to explain that the "it's for me" aspect of it is really all that it is. You look like you should get really awesome results! Be patient with him. :o) I know I go back and forth myself with total excitement to total fear! Hang in there...

From what I've found out, it's risky, results are unknown and prob won't last for years. I realized how important it is to have close friends and family who support the plans from the start, esp in case there's a lot of pain or ongoing complications afterwards.
