WORTH IT$2,200
My procedure with Dr Hennessy was great!! I was very nervous going in but he calmed me and assured everything would be fine! I got lipo to my abdomen flanks & bra strap & it's a HUGE difference! My stomach is a little wrinkly from trapped fluids but he suggested a massage therapist & once I start that it should flatten out! But I'm in love!

Wow, what a huge difference at only two weeks - you look great! Did anything surprise you about the recovery process so far?

Okay, I will be getting mines done in about three weeks. I'm nervous, and there's not many reviews on him.

Thanks love! He's great ..just don't forget to schedule ur lymphatic drainage massages so you won't get any trapped fluid. You can also gently massages the fluids towards the incision the day after

Okay, was the lymphatic message painful? And is it expensive?

You're going to be sore so it's kind of painful but they work with you. He'll give you the name of a lady he works with she's like $90/45mins but if you go on Groupon you can find cheaper for 60mins

Also I have a couple more questions lol.. What kind of pain medicine did he prescribe? Was the pain intense? How long did the pain last and how soon did you go back to work?

Uhmm from 1-10 its was about a 5 so not too bad. He prescribed oxycodone so that deff helped. It's more uncomfortable than anything. I went back to work in about 3 days. I'm still sore as of today but I still have a little trapped fluid & the massages help with that
