Been almost a year now. Totally not worth it. Total waste of money

Yes, been almost a year now. Still lots of unevenness in the hips, stomach, back and abdomen areas. Hips still look rounded on one and kind of square on the other. One back area looks better but the other side looks like nothing was done to it at all. And the fat area around the navel/abdomen area, the area I was most concerned with, is still there with no noticeable difference. No positive result at all. I can also look down to my lower abdomen area and can see like a pouch sticking out on the right side. The pain I endured for weeks was so not worth it for the results I can see now. Please Please, do your homework before considering lipo. Research and read all you can on this site and others before making a hasty decision you will regret. You may have a different outlook in considering the consequences ahead. I have lost 25 lbs and been working out the past few months. The weight loss and workouts have not remedied my appearance of what the lipo has permanently done.

Cost above included Juvederm around the lip area and Healthy Aging consult and blood tests to determine my hormone levels. No payment process was rated as the procedure was paid in full before procedure. I think Dr. Syed is concerned about my pain and expects my swelling and hard tissue to resolve. His nurse is professional and compassionate. Easy to talk to and concerned with my condition.

Forgot to add that I still have areas of numbness and soreness in the navel area. Hopefully that will also get better with time.

I had lipo with the same dr as NeverAgain12 and was up around the house the next. I was only limited because of drainage. By day 3, the drainage had all but stopped and I went back to work on day 4. (I had the procedure on a Friday and returned to work on the next Monday.) The only pain medication I took was Extra Strength Tylenol. I though the dr and the staff was great! They communicated to me what to expect and were friendly and professional.

Glad your procedure was successful. Guess you were one of the lucky ones. I am sure it is based on number of areas and extent of procedure involved.

Still feel about the same I did last week. Still have some nerve sensitivity around waist when my clothes touch my skin. At times I can have a needle like tinge and itch but can deal with that. Still waiting on the nerve damage to completely heal, but still better from all the pain I went thru. Abdomen and hips still uneven. As stated before, Dr. wanted to do another lipo of the small fatty area just above the navel. I am disappointed that this area is not better than expected as this was the area that bothered me the most. I will definitely live with what is left, as I would never go thru this again.
