Laser Lipo.... 46 yr old. Really Needed It. Harrison, NY

I had my son 8 years ago, and also quick smoking after 24 years, three years ago (12-5-13). I was losing the baby fat but when I quick smoking I started to gain the weight back, I also suffer from severe neck and back pain from a car accident so I can't workout as much or as hard as I wanted to. So before the weight gain I was 150 lbs, now I was weighing 193 lbs and I am 5 7". Ugh frustrating, so I decided to do Laser Lipo with Trisculpt at Sonobello... Today is day one after the surgery. I had my lower and upper abdomen done as well as my love handles and my bra rolls.
I read and was told it was not painful. Hmm, well for me with the medication they gave (hydrocodone and Zanex) it was painful as hell. When the doctor used local anesthesia and while he was doing the procedure what I felt was pinching, a lot of it. Another way to explain the feeling is if you ever had a tattoo... well that feeling. I asked during the procedure if I am the only one that has complained or felt the pain and the Doctor and nurse said no, it's normal and depends on the person because everyone is different. Well, I was the different one and it hurt as hell... Really hurt!.
So, I can see my waist again and my cooch lol. I couldn't before because of my stomach. It's a little hard to get up from sitting or even bending down because of the incisions (I have seven). I have some discomfort but nothing major. When I get up it hurts or when I try to bend ugh it hurts. Besides that I feel good. A little sore but good. I added photos from the morning of the surgery and after. I will continue adding updates as time passes so you can see the outcome.

I forgot to add these two photos from the day after. That morning all my garments were full of pink liquid. Even my socks! That evening I took a long shower, it made me feel so good. Since I took everything off, I took the chance to wash the main garment that I have to use everyday, which I only have one. The white one you see in the picture, they said to stop wearing it the day after. I also, received a call as a follow up and went over all the information they gave me when i was there which was very helpful.
I am now only taking Ibuprofen for discomfort which is very little. I still have a lot of bruising and the incisions look like they are healing good so far. So more pick stuff coming out (thank god)... but I won't stop using the pads because I don't want to have the garment I have on rubbing on the incisions. I'm moving around pretty good, again i am pretty sore. So if anyone is planning on doing this and it's multiple areas, you will need to take at least 5 days off of work to feel comfortable enough to bend and sit long hours etc.. I will update after a week. Hope this helps.
