Botched Lipo procedure

Revision required

$3,500
After two procedures on my love handles with Dr. Neinstein I had to get a revision with Dr. Peter Bray. Thank god for Dr. Bray because the first two procedures left dents in my waist, and Dr. Bray worked miracles to fix it.

Take home message: Always choose the skill of the surgeon over fancy new techniques! Botched lipo can significantly affect your self-esteem for years

Also, if a surgeon is charging you less than $8000 for lipo on love handles something is wrong...
are you still happy with revision?

I had laser lipo done with Dr. Neinstein on my love handles. I gained all of my weight in this area and it made my torso look very disproportionate. The procedure was done under local anesthesia, and he used the smart lipo technique which smooths out the fat after it's removed so that you don't have those dreaded bumps that people always complain about post-lipo. I've had minimal discomfort during and after the surgery, minimal bruising and swelling, and was off of pain meds in about two days post-procedure. I'm very happy I got the procedure done, my torso looks great. All in all I'm happy I choose Dr. Neinstein as my surgeon he made the process very comfortable and was able to give me the end result I wanted.
