Liposuction 360-Great Experience Dr. Hamwi ArtLipo

Dr. Hamwi and Chelsea C.S.T were wonderful! I had a Lipo procedure done before at Sonobello 10 years prior and I can tell you it is not worth the money to go to these type of places. I had lumps in my abdomen and just weird leftover fat pockets that were more noticeable when I worked out and lost weight. I knew that I had 1 more shot to get this right since I didn't want a bunch of scar tissue from going too often to get things "fixed". I saw Dr. Hamwi at Artlipo's videos on YouTube and was sold!! I love that they have you awake and he stands you up to see areas that he may need to do more work on to get your shape proportioned and remove as much fat as possible. (They had me asleep at the other place and laid on the table the whole time, they never saw what I looked like when I stood up to be sure I was even). I will be honest and say that the awake procedure was a bit uncomfortable, not really due to pain, but it is just a weird feeling with the cannula, but I much rather make sure it is done right. Chelsea was assisting him and she was great! During the procedure she kept me calm and Dr. Hamwi was fun to talk to the whole time! They both did a great job at keeping me distracted during the procedure and he constantly would check if I was okay and would take breaks when necessary. Chelsea takes the time to followup with me every two weeks and advises of the changes I should be experiencing at each milestone. My recovery has been easy with all changes taking place as expected. They boast on their site about using a technique to remove as much fat as possible rather than only partially removing fat and you can definitely tell the difference. I agree that the ArtLipo technique has caused my skin to adhere much better to my frame than other procedures where they don't remove enough fat risking weird lumps that are not visual as you are lying down. They are a bit more expensive than a place like Sonobello but you definitely get what you pay for. I was working out/lifting weights faithfully for years and I know that I would have never achieved my ideal shape with diet and exercise alone. I could not make my waist and small of my back shrink-in giving me the hourglass figure I have always wanted. The more I worked the more my waist and hips would stay in the same proportion to each other. The lower back lipo procedure really does accentuate the buttocks making it look like you had a butt-lift. the best part is you can see the work they do for yourself on youtube and will be blown away, go see for yourself. I will followup with before and after pictures soon. I was waiting to get to 6 weeks so the swelling would have come down enough to give accurate photos.
