WORTH IT$3,600
Hi all! Happy to be back on Real Self after having my arms lipo'd about 1 1/2 years ago. Time to get rid of this wobbly chin!
Just returned from my consultation with the amazing Dr. Sterry. He's the doctor that did my arms and they came out perfect. Wouldn't consider going to anyone else. After weighing the options of both Kybella and Smart Lipo, the lipo won. I'm SUPER excited though I'm not looking forward to the 4 days of garment torture.
Looking forward to following your surgery journeys! Hope everyone is having a great day!! :-))

Now I get it! Isn't he a bubbela?
You are smart to do little tweaks now ! From 38-48 you'll love looking great! You must like sterry too!

how did you choose your doctor? i assume you would recommend him?
May 21, 2016
Lots of research on this site and to be honest, I just loved his and the rest of the staffs energy during my initial consult. I would HIGHLY recommend him! The whole office is really great. Good luck :-D

Thanks. I think I'm going to get a few consultations. Did you have any hesitation? I'm nervous ant telling my husband that I want it. He'll tell me to just lose weight, but I think i need to do both. The area feels like it's getting looser with age. (Even though I'm only 39)

Also looks like I signed in with a different account! Phillips acct is also me, my name is Alyson. How long from your first consult to surgery? Thanks in advance!

I didn't have any to be honest! Dr. Sterry had done my arm liposuction 2 years before so I knew what to expect from him and the office. I think I saw him for botox and consult the end of January and I had my surgery on March 5th. I could have done it sooner, but didn't have the down time needed till then. My neck was also starting to get loose and has tightened up SO much since my surgery. My husband is pretty blasé about these types of procedures but even he is impressed with what a difference the neck lipo has made!

Hi! Did the bumps on your arms end up going away? How long did that take? I hope you're happy with your final result!
October 18, 2016
Yes, they did. I'd say within 3 months or so, all bumps were gone. I am thrilled with my results! I just started weight lifting about a month ago and I'm already seeing obvious arm definition. It would have taken me a lot longer to start seeing anything before the procedure :-))

Thanks so much. I have the same arm surgery with Dr. Sterry in about a month, so was starting to get nervous about the bumps. I'm thrilled to hear that they went away and that you're happy with your results :) Thanks so much for sharing your experiences!

Surgery date moved up and some 'Before' pics!!
Super excited to have my surgery date moved up 5 days. My husband and I are going to Honduras in mid April and I'm hoping those 5 extra days of healing will make a difference. Gotta start Bromelain and turmeric pills soon to help with swelling and bruising. Also, gotta cut back on the wine, LOL! Super excited! March 2nd can't get here fast enough.
Here are a couple of 'before' pics. Please, excuse the lack of makeup and messy hair. I'm 4'11 and weigh about 112 lbs. I'm not overweight and as you can see, my face makes me look fatter! I've always had a chubbier face and a fat pad under my chin. Even when I weighed less than 100lbs and was starving myself. Annoying. So very excited to finally be getting my dream profile ;-)
I hope everyone is having a great day!

Hi! I had this done in November and I just want to tell you that it was one of the best decisions I've ever made! I'm so happy with the result already and I'm not even considered completely healed yet. I'm built very similar to you, so I feel your pain of being petite but looking larger than I am. I actually had a breast reduction back in April and then the chin lipo in November and it's unbelievable how much thinner I look (and feel!) without humongous boobs and a double chin. I was counting down the days just like you are. Anyways, just wanted to say good luck and if your experience is anything like mine, you will be thrilled!

Hi! Thank you so much for sharing your experience with me! I hope I'm as happy as you seem to be with your results! I'm seriously so antsy to get this over with. 6 days to go ;-)

I’m with Rayna. I had mine done in December and my confidence is through the roof. Just be prepared for the swelling. I looked like a cabbage patch kid. But once it’s gone, you’ll never look back. Good luck to you!!!

It's coming very soon! We will b swollen together . Is he doing anything with your platysmal muscle?
February 22, 2016
Nope. Just the Smart Lipo. I had originally asked about kybella but he thought I would get a much better result with Lipo. How are you feeling today???
At least it is only 4 days of garment torture, but it will inevitably be a long 4 days ;)
What made you choose lipo over Kybella? Just curious.
Thanks for sharing- it is always interesting to hear. Is there a risk that you will need laser tightening with the lipo too?
Aha! I obviously need more coffee :) Thanks for explaining
