Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

THE END OF WEEK # 3 UPDATE: well, three weeks...
THE END OF WEEK # 3 UPDATE:
well, three weeks went by, and i can report to you that i started light exercise , and trying to go back to normalcy , i dont have to wear compression garment anymore, even though i still believe i'm swelled up and my lipo areas are still tender.
i started the process at 204 lbs , i'm today at 202.6 lbs, as we all know lipo does not really make u lose weight, but its actually me trying to lose some weight as much as i can. i still have 2 weeks to go before i have to see my doctor for check up and his after pic for his documentation.
so meanwhile i will continue posting , and reply to any comments and questions, and will post more pics if there is any change, but to be honest there is really not much change between week 2 and week 3,

Today marks the 2 weeks post op day :)
as of today i dont have to wear the compression Garment full time 24 hrs a day, Doctor advised me for the next week to wear it 12 hrs a day for one week then i should be done with it. while the garment is off i wear a compression shirt ( pic posted )
i know some people have to wear it for 4 or 5 or even 6 weeks, what i can tell you is that ultimately it depends on how much fat they managed to take out of our bodies, mine was little less than 2 litters from stomach and flanks, so less trama to the body i guess.
i'm the same wieght and the big news is i can say and show that I LOST 2" OF FAT ( see pics ) went from 43" to little less than 41"
so even though i want more inches off, i understand i have to let my body heal and swelling go down in the next 3 critical weeks.
Its time for me to start doing some lite exercise.
OH AND SO FAR I DONT NOTICE ANY LUMPS OR IRREGULARITIES FORMING :)
any comments or questions feel free to contact me

It has been a week and today is the check up day...
It has been a week and today is the check up day with the good doctor.
i was kinda excited to go and see and hear what he will say about my progress, cause if anyone knows, it would be the doctor.
So the doctor did his checks and told me that so far i'm healing good, still very tender and lots of swelling ( normal for this kinda procedure) but the holes where he made the incisions are closing up good and no lumps , wants me to continue wearing the compression belt 24/7 for one more week, then 1 week of only 12 hrs a day, and i'm done with that compression belt/garmet.
Probably big reason i will be done fast is that he only took out a little less than 2 liters ( 650cc total ) so less trauma to body
Most of the fat is inside my stomach muscle and i have to diet and work out as much as i can considering my disability.
But as of this coming Friday i can go to the pool, yeaaay ..
next doctor appointment will be in 4 weeks, That's when the doctor thinks most of results would have been achieved 80%
then the rest will just happen in couple months after that if all goes well.
