Still waiting

This coming Saturday, in two days, it will be six weeks since I've had the smartlipo procedure. I haven't posted in a while so figured I'll do an update. I still wear the compression garments 24/7. Probably once a week I won't wear it for an hour or so. I still go to the gym and eat well. My incisions are just little bumps since they are healing but you don't see them. Not in any pain or anything. I don't feel like I see anything different. Looking back at my picture from the next day after the surgery I was so happy and after that day I just haven't been happy. To spend $10,000 on this and not see anything is disappointing. I know i may not still see full results but it's frustrating. I have my 2 months follow up at the end of July so hopefully things are better then. For now it's still just a waiting game I guess.

Ehh

Today marks three weeks since I've had the procedure done. Still swollen and areas hurting but bruising is gone. Incisions are still in the process of healing but all are closed. Don't really feel like any things changing but I guess I'm still swollen soooo. I see other people have drastic results so I guess I just have to wait longer. At 2 week appointment doctor took pictures and we compared to before having the procedure and don't feel like much really changed. He even froze at some points because he couldn't figure out what to say that changed. I guess I just have to wait longer and see if spending thousands of dollars on this was really worth it.

Tomorrow is a week since surgery

Tomorrow finally marks a week since I've had the smartlipo done. All of the incisions are closed and not much pain only when moving certain ways but it's definitely bearable, nothing bad at all. Also still very swollen. Can't wait for that to go away. Some days it's worse and others I feel like I can finally see a difference. Also some bruising especially by my underarms which was badly bruised from the start. Taking off the compression garment only to shower and it feels so weird, like everything is all jiggly so I get happy to put it back on. I can't wait to see final results. Definitely very frustrating that it doesn't happen right away but that's just the process.

Dr Fondacaro is great! He makes sure you feel comfortable at all times and is great at keeping conversation. He's so friendly and is a great guy. I'm extremely happy I chose him and so excited to see my results which I'm confident they will be great thanks to him. His staff is great as well and the doctor as well as the staff are all there when you need them for any questions and concerns.
