Ok, so this is the second time I have scheduled the procedure, because I was down out right scared to do it. Have been contemplating it since last year which is when I had my first consultation. I will be doing lower and upper abs and love handles. Don't know why they are called love handles cause I hate them. Some of my fears were "Am I to old? Am so nervous! What if it doesn't work? Too much money (my first qoute was 4500) They had a holiday special I got in on, had to give my deposit in Dec. to hold the price. I really freaked out when I received all the paper work explaining all the details and it showed all the risk involved. I cancelled, the young lady on the phone assured me it was safe and all that had to be on paper for precautionary reasons. She assured me that the Dr. has done hundreds in 8 years and everyone has been happy. I still cancelled, but kept doing research talked with the doctor about my fears he was very nice, I talked to a few other people including my niece who has done lipo and continued the research on line. So I decided to go ahead with it. They will give me something for my nerves, and all the other medication needed. I already ordered my garment that I have to wear everyday so I am ready. I am 5'5 and weight 155 wear a size 10 but that muffin top is there, YUKE!

Tickle Lipo Done!

I had my procedure done yesterday 2/17/2015. Over all it was a very positive experience. The doctor and the nurse were very nice, I had it done with Dr. Zelko, in Westmont ILL. took about 3 hours he explained everything as he was going along I felt a little discomfort but not really any pain a lot of drainage though so I am glad that I got to garments. By the time I got home I already had to change cause I was soak and wet even my coat was wet. I sleep through the night though I woke up very early feeling like I had to urinate but was not able to. Went back to bed when I woke at 6am had to change my bandages and clean up so when I took the garment off then I was able to urinate, don't know why. I am feeling really good no pain except if I lean forward so I sit in the recliner to keep myself a littled up not fully reclined. Would love to show you some pics but for some reason I cannot upload them. Will let you all know how I feel later on, right now I am walking fine no pain and I can see the difference though I am still swollen.

Yeahhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!! You're all done!!!!!!! I am so glad for you!!! It is a little scarier when we're in our 60's. But as long as we're healthy 60 yr. olds we will do just fine!!! And that's why we have to get medical clearance from our Primary Doctors. You only had your tummy done, I didn't have much problem with the abs. Sore getting up for a week, then I was fine. The thighs were the killer. But you are probably home now. I had to stay over night because I did 3 areas. Did he say how many cc's or lbs. he took out? Looking forward to hearing from you. God bless!!!!!!

I think he said 8.5 or 7.5. I'm s little sore especially when I' trying to stand. Yes it took three hours and I came home right away.
February 18, 2015
Congratulations. Glad you had a great experience!
February 18, 2015
Congratulations!!!! I'm glad to hear that all went well. I'm having my done this Friday February 20,2015. I too I'm nervous as I am 61 years old but in good health. Wishing you a speedy recovery! Please post pics if you can.

Thank you, we are the same age it really isn't that bad! Today my entire body is sore and I didn't sleep well I very restless but I don't think its has anything to do with the procedure I am a very impatience person in general. can't wait to take this garment off so uncomfortable. But all good!

February 20, 2015
Those garments are killers!!!!! Wearing them I have noticed a decrease in appitite!!!!!:)

Hope you are feeling better! Here is an update on my procedure: I had it done last Friday. It all went well, it was a little uncomfortable but not painful. I stayed home all weekend recovering. I do have a lot of swelling more noticeable when I take off the compression garment. Yesterday I went out for the first time after procedure and I was ok. Did not take pain meds yesterday although im still sore. The area is very sensitive and have black and blues but overall I'm feeling ok. Hope this swelling goes down soon!

Glad you are feeling ok! My garfment was really bothering me last night so I kind of loosen it opened the snaps, fell asleep and this morning I am very swollen. I am beginning to regret doing this. I'm I being to impatient?
February 24, 2015
From what I have read on here, it takes time for the swelling to go down of course it varies on individuals. I'm hoping that by the second week, the swelling should go down. We both have to be patient

Wow... You're going to have a nice tummy if you're talking lbs. I got a total of 8lbs. out of 3 areas, abs, saddles and flanks!! My PS said my abs had more deep fat on them, so that can't be totaly taken out. So I have to Diet big time., but I'm going to post a recent photo of it on my site. Glad you're home. But drink, drink, drink!!!!!!!!! I was on a steady drip, overnight in the hospital!!! I had to get up & pee every hour!!! But it was a good thing, because you also need to move around!!! My Dr. is very cautious man, when he's doing more than 2 areas. I didn't get any sleep there at all, but when I came home I crashed!!! You got to replenish your body with fluids. Do take care of yourself.
