WORTH IT$8,000

I am scheduled for Cellulaze and Smartlipo tomorrow morning with Dr. B in Miami. I am excited and cannot wait for the results. I am 5'4" and weight 115 and work out all the time but I have been plagued with cellulite. I also cannot get rid of a little fat in the stomach area with constant workouts. I had a consult with the doctor 2 weeks ago. He was very informative and very down to earth with a great bed side manner. I will post before and after photos in updates.

I bruise very easily any helpful information or suggestions to make this more pleasant for me is greatly appreciated.

Hi! I am scheduled to have cellulaze in November. My body is similar to what you describe. I know your procedure was in 2012, would you say the results were worth it? Thanks so much

Thank you for the luck. I had the surgery this morning. I had cellulaze on my buttocks and the rear of my upper legs. I also had Smartlip Tryplex on the inter and outer thighs as well as around the belly button and a little on upper right side of back. I have a lot of drainage as well as I am in a lot of pain today.

Sorry to hear you are in pain today sobemom. :( Were you given anything to take for it? If not I would call the office & let them know you are in pain. At least that way they can advise you on what options you have - no reason to be uncomfortable if you don't have to be.

Please keep us posted on how you are feeling!!

Have you decided it you are doing cellulaze yet. So far I am looking better. Been over five weeks and have improvements and hope for more. Are you in the Miami area?

I am still considering it. I am hoping to get pregnant soon, so I would definitely need to wait until I was through having children and nursing. Although, some doctors said it shouldn't matter whether or not I did it before having another baby. I think I would wait just to be in the safe side. Also want to see if people are mostly happy with their results. I am out in California. You look pretty good in your pictures! Hope your results continue to improve!

Hello all, it has now been a week since the procedure. Pain is now much better. I still have pain but it is much more manageable. I started the messages at the Doctors office last Thursday. It helped very much with pain and bruising. I am doing the messages twice a week for two more weeks.

I forgot to mention in my first post that my Doctor did not use local anesthesia. He put me under for the whole procedure so I was not uncomfortable for the three hours it took.

I will post pictures soon.

Thanks for sharing with us that you had general anesthesia for the procedure. I know with other procedures that is often a separate cost. Do you mind me asking there was an additional fee for it, or was it included in the $8K you paid?

I'm so glad to hear the pain is starting to ease up for you!!

Hello Megan. The Doctor I used does not do this procedure unless he uses general. He believes it is to much for his patients under local, so yes the price he gives is for using general anesthesia. I am very glad he used general.
