Hi I'm 34 years old and I have 3 children and since I had my 2 year old daughter I haven't been able to lose my potruding belly. I have lost so much weight but my belly never goes down. I am very self conscious about it and I hate it when people ask me if I am pregnant all the time. I found a Great deal on Groupon For smartlipo with Dr. Park Avenue. I was a bit hesitant about having lipo with a coupon but decided to go for a consultation. Dr. Fondacaro was great. He made me feel comfortable and explained the whole procedure To me. I never felt as if he was trying to sell me anything.

I didn't feel any pain whatsoever yesterday during or after the procedure. I did feel very drowsy and out of it. Today I feel sore and swollen. Almost as if I've done lots of sit ups. I just took 2 tylenol. I hope my abs go down some more. So far I'm happy not having that pregnant looking belly.

Your abs will definitely go down, cause you always swell after the procedure.  Are you wearing a compression garment of some kind?

I did buy a compression garment but is dirty with blood stains. I will have to take it to wash now. In the meantime I will wear a corset I have. I'm a bit concern about the wrinkles around my bellybutton. I hope it goes away. Thanks guys

Colombian corset with bra hooks on the front. You were right TwoPlusOne, I spoke to my doc yesterday and told him about wearing my corset and he advised me not to wear one until 3 weeks from now because the bone on the corset with leave indents.
