WORTH IT$4,200
**update** it's now been 3 months since my procedure. Words cannot express how amazing I feel! I am now down to 156lbs, I started at 187. I've lost a total of 31lbs!!!! No saggy skin and I cannot even put in words how great I feel about myself! Clothes shoping is now something fun to do that I look forward to, instead of dreading it. It feels wonderful to walk into any store and know you can pick anything because it will fit you and look great on your body. I am literally 12lbs away from my target weight and It feels crazy to say that. I never thought I'd get this close to my goal weight again!! I can actually see the light at the end of the tunnel!! Dr. Perry has given me a second chance at life! I FEEL beautiful!! I love taking pictures now and I can finally look at myself in the mirror again. This surgery was one of the best decisions I've made in my life.

I gave Dr. Perry 5 stars across the board because there is truly nothing at all that I feel he needs improvement on. He is extremely professional and caring, and so is his staff. I could not have asked for a better experience, or even more, better RESULTS!! When I met Dr. Perry, I knew this was the right doctor and the right time. He was incredibly informative and patient. He explained the entire procedure to me, pro's and cons. Dr. Perry informed me that I did not need a tummy tuck and that he was sure he could get rid of my unwanted fat with just lipo. He could have recommended a tummy tuck, like previous doctors and surely charged more for it, but instead, he was honest and told me exactly what he thought would work best for me. I had never met a more warm, professional, caring, talented down to earth doctor in my life. I am so glad I did my procedure with him. I could not have asked for a better doctor. This man is unbelievably caring and makes his patients feel absolutely safe and comfortable. If you are considering any type of procedure I would most certainly recommend him over any other surgeon. Thank you, thank you, thank you, sooo very much Dr. Perry, for giving me my self confidence back. Thanks to you, I truly feel like a million bucks. Also, I would like to comment on his staff. The anesthesiologist that prepped me for surgery was just as warm and detailed as Dr. Perry. He took the time to explain to me what I should expect before and after in regards to the anesthesiology being used and seemed sincerely caring. Norma, his secretary is sweet and very professional. she bent over backwards accommodating my needs for paperwork to be mailed back and forth between different states as I was in the middle of a move. Lastly, but certainly not least, his post-op therapist Miriam is amazing as well. She is great at what she does and I would recommend getting all your therapies done with her and only her. She will drain you and shape you like no one else. The treatments are very painful, but after each therapy you can see and feel the difference. I would not suggest letting the ladies at the spa do the post-op treatments as they don't really seem to know how to actually drain. I'm glad I had Miriam to do all my treatments. Honestly, all together, I could not have had a better group of professionals taking care of me.

Thank you Witte! I actually need to take new pictures because I look a lot better now than the afters which really were taken approx 3 weeks after my procedure. When did you do your surgery and did you do it with Dr. Perry?
No I had my procedure done close to prague czeck republic. Really? Wow you look great!!!! Well the picture i posted is 3 days post op!!! Will my results get better when time passes? I hope my diffrence will be as beautiful as yours...
Oh absolutely!!! Right now you're very swollen. Wait two weekee and you'll start seeing a difference. I about 2 months you'll have a good idea of what you'll really look like after all the swelling goes away. My procedure was 3 months ago and I'm still swollen, so for sure give it some time. I'm sure you will look amazing :)
U look AWESOME...how long would u say it took to see really good results...at your 3 month mark?? I will be exactly 2 months tomorr...still feel swelling in tummy area and bumps..some days are better than others..since ur month ahead of me..maybe u have some insight?? Thanks so much and keep up the great work.... :)
Thank you muffin. I have absolutely no bumps. I did the post operatory treatments which are meant to avoid getting bumps. As for the swelling, I still feel a little swollen too. I'm not sure how long it'll be before that goes away entirely. Some people tell me it takes about 4-6 mos appx.
Hi!! U look simply amazing. Can u tell me how u liked The result of the inner thigh lipo. Do u see a drastic difference??
Yes, HUGE difference! I can wear shorts now!!!!

It's now been a little over a month since my surgery. I still say that I could not be happier with my results. I've lost a total of 18lbs and my body looks amazing. I can't thank Dr. Perry enough for giving me my self confidence back. I also think it's important for everyone out there considering this procedure to be aware that the surgery itself NEEDS to be paired up with the post-operatory treatment. His therapist, Miriam, is amazing. I've had a total of 10 treatments and even though they are absolutely excruciating, they definitely help you feel much better afterwards. The initial draining of the liquids the first couple of days is of upmost importance and I feel between the draining and the therapy, they definitely helped me feel a lot better and get the best results possible out of my surgery.

Kristy,
It took my a while because I've been very busy, but I just posted my before and afters. Hope this helps.
You look AMAZING.....I go in Oct and cannot wait....Keep up the great work :)
Thank you muffin!! I feel great :)
Hi awnw,
how tall are you and what did u weight before surgery and now. Also you said u went for 10 treatments. what were the treatments and what was the time frame u went to them. i live across the country so i would be traveling and couldn't stay months and months. thank you.
Hello,
I was at 187 before the surgery and now, a month later I am at 168 lbs. Obviously, I've been very careful with what I eat. I no longer eat any kind of junk food. I eat carbs once a week and organic food for almost everything else. I haven't been able to exercise as of yet, but I can't wait. The treatments are the post-op therapies that help 1) drain the liquid 2) reduce swelling 3) make sure you don't get lumps. I did 10 and I did them every single day for 10 days. The therapist's name is Miriam. I Hope this helps.
wow wow wow! I am in love with ur results! U are like a different person! U must be so trilled! I go in on Wednesday and can only hope for results like yours! x

I did a liposuction procedure. It was all of my front top and lower abdomen, my sides and my entire back area. It also covered my arms and inner thies. I wanted to do this for a long time but never gathered the courage. I am so very glad that I didn't do it before. I had a large fat pocket in the lower left side of my abdomen which I thought I would only get rid of by doing a tummy tuck. Previous doctors had also told me that to get rid of it I would need a tummy tuck. When I woke up from my procedure Dr. Perry was by my feet, waiting for me to wake up. He personally helped me to the bathroom and then helped me onto a wheel chair and wheeled me all the way to my car where he helped me sit comfortably for the ride back home. Could anyone possibly ask for more? As for my results, well, my stomach is as flat as a board. The hideous fat pocket that I hated is completely gone. My body looks AMAZING! The clothes I am able to fit into now look incredible on me! I cannot even remember the last time I felt this great about myself. I feel beautiful again and to me, that is priceless.
