So I am doing the procedure!! I have always worked out and had a healthy lifestyle.. however just like we all know.. those certain areas just wont go away.. i HATE my back.. and flanks (runs in the family).. im so self conscious and its a horrible thing, and of coarse wish my stomach was flatter!! My mom and family agreed that we should do it :) We had Dr. azurin in mind.. however he passed away.. he was the best(family went to him) !!!..So, i did some research, and my first DR. was Dr. Salzhauer in Miami.. he had great reviews.. alot of lipo before and after pics on his site..and a friend of mine had some surgery done with him.. so he was my first choice! I called last week, and got in for a consult this past Tuesday the 27th of May. Minus the fact of waiting very long to see the Dr for our appt time.. He came in the room.. i showed him everything i hated ... upperback/lower back.. flanks... he said 100% he can get this sucked out!! I said i want to be very aggressive and "suck it to the bone" haha.. he was super nice..made me feel comfortable.. and very informative.. and just overall seemed like this is it, and go with him!! :) I did ask him about my stomach.. but he reccomended not to touch it due to sometimes having even a tiny bit on the ab area.. can leave wrinkles.. and he said my stomach is good.. however.. (well i can still change my mind) i asked if we did just a little tiny bit on the lower.. what he thought.. he agreed... so i guess.. ill think more about it and go from there.. of coarse i want a flat stomach.. but i dont want wrinkles or lines.. but maybe it wont happen? Anything from any realselfers?? IM debating on ab area( just minor and the bottom area not whole stomach) Thats whats in the air for now.. anyways.. Im all set for June 18th for surgery :) I did my blood work yesterday.. and i will be back for my 2 week consult next tuesday.. along with my blood work.. (assuming im in the clear with) I love reading everyone else's reviews and comments etc.. and we can go on the journey and help eachother out together

Thanks for starting a review.  I'm looking forward to reading all about your surgery and recovery.  Are you going to post pics?
We just published this 10 biggest myths about liposuction guide and I thought you'd like to read it, I think the #8 myth might help answer the question you asked about wrinkles from aggressive lipo.  There is a lot of good info in the guide in general.  

Keep us posted!

Just saw your pics- you are already tiny!  You don't need "aggressive" lipo in my opinion but I totally get that you want the trouble spots GONE.

Congrats !!!!! He is the best I just had my sx about 9 days ago and I'm really swollen but I'm coming along really well . He's a really good choice he's such a sweetie pie and his bedside manners are the truth. He truly loves what he do and care about his girls ..,,,. Again great choice:)

He's an awesome PS. He knows what he's doing I took all his recommendations and everything came out great. I put all my trust in his hands and I have no regrets.
