I recently received smart lipo on my inner thigh,...

I recently received smart lipo on my inner thigh, upper arms , and abdomen bra line . On my consultation I told him my problem areas which were all those areas mentions before and he said he could help. On the day of surgery he marked my areas but I noticed he only marked my lower abdomen and not the top. After my surgery I noticed that I wasn't sore on my upper abdomen at all which scared me bc I paid for my abdomen to be done.So I should have felt something right? I went in for my post op appointment and expressed my concerns to the nurse because the doctor was not there which was strange to me. She told me she couldn't imagine him not doing the whole abdomen. She told me she would ask him and call me but that was a whole week ago. .and I am annoyed! What do I do? I am so scared that I will have a flat lower abdomen and fat upper abdomen .. Also am is my lower abdomen looking right?

Hi!  I'm sorry you're going through this stress right now.  Is there any way you can go in to the office and get an answer?  

Your picture didn't publish, unfortunately, so maybe you could try that again, so we can see.  I can say that I felt very little in my ab area at all, but I don't know if that's normal.

THANK you I will try to reload them..

Reloading the pics worked :)!  

I have to say that at this stage, swelling tends to set in with a vengeance :( and it can last a while.  Definitely keep trying to confirm with your doctor, but swelling can mask all of your results for a while.  Though I do see that you're smaller post than pre.

I think it's devided in 2 parts the upper & lower abdominal I'm thinking of getting smart lipo & those are the two areas I want to get.

Im really debating on smart lipo or lipo do you recommend the smart lipo?

Honestly I would much rather have gotten liposuction

I think your stomach looks good. It would help if I knew which were pre and post op pics. I can see the back bra fat but I think the front area looks better.

I wish you wouldve said something to the doctor when you first noticed it before surgery...smh. i hope it all works out for you

I was so disappointed after I saw my results I spoke to the nurse and her reply was may be they mist a spot how can you mist a spot when I paid for upper and lower abs and then suggesting touch up .smh

I will say i had zero pain at all with the upper abs, and i do mean zero! So doesn't mean they weren't done. Do you have small incisions up there?
October 9, 2014
No I have no incision at the top just at the top on the bra line in the back

Have you managed to get in contact with your doctor yet?  It might help you to know how much fat was removed as well.

I hope he/she reassure you all this is normal :)
October 13, 2014
Yes me too but if not I'm sure he will have to fix my upper abs because I paid too much money for this procedure

What is the most that he can remove at one time bc 1900cc is only 4 lbs. .In that is not enough for upper& lower ab , inner thigh, bra line and upper arms Right??????
User Avatar
October 15, 2014
I had a total of about 2400cc removed from lower upper and both flanks so 1900 is still a lot for smaller areas
October 15, 2014
Yes but 1900 isn't right for a whole stomach n arms n thighs

Do you have 4 incisions on your arms underneath? One under bucep and 1 by elbow on each arm if not then he didn't so them. I had mine done&have 4 scars.

If you look at my review,look at the pics where the incisions should be to give you an idea.
