How it works

- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Natural Lipo!
I was referred to Dr. Lee by my other friends that had received other procedures from him, and I really liked the work he had done on my friends, and they all raved about his bedside manners, and that he is very thorough and always thinking about the client.
I am a very active person, but with the years and years of working out, my abdomen was stuck in a "potato bag" shape, I had no curves, and a lot of fat concentrated in my torso. I was like a straight rectangle from torso to legs. I also wanted to get rid of my "spare tire". Dr. Lee recommended that I lipo my flanks, upper abs, and lower abs. I also added some fat grafting to my upper buttocks, to facilitate more of an hourglass figure.
He expressed that he wasn't going to be aggressive (ie. Kim Kardashian), and I agreed that I didn't want to seem like I "had too much work done", or be at the point where it was noticeable, versus looking like I personally just had been hitting the gym a lot.
The day of surgery was easy enough, I decided to go local anesthesia, and was given something strong, where I was still very lucid but didn't feel any pain when the lipo started. To be honest, it tickled during the lipo of the flank area, but I didn't feel any pain or discomfort, besides the need to giggle. They still would periodically check in with me to make sure I was still comfortable, even when I said I was fine.
The only minor discomfort was the fat grafting to my buttocks, which is understandable since they didn't want to inject more numbing liquid there (which requires more drainage), but still nothing painful.
Within the next few weeks, a waistline emerged! And as the months passed, my waistline was getting more defined, and obviously, I was less swollen. My stomach is MUCH MUCH more flatter now.
My photos don't do Dr. Lee's work justice, but I'm roughly 2 jean sizes down, clothes lay better, and I'm not afraid to wear form-fitting dresses anymore!
Since this was my first EVERY type of surgery, I was a bit nervous to get too much done at once, but now, knowing how easy the procedure and recovery was, I'm definitely will be paying a visit to Dr. Lee to get rid of my bra line/back fat!!
