25 female, 5 foot 1 and usually fluctuates between 112-118. I do modeling so no matter how hard I try to lose weight I still hVe a fat deposit on the dreaded lower belly got a deal on groupon and after hours of scouring the internet about ...pretty much everything there is to know about lipo, and this particular doctor, I was satisfied. Now I CANT post my pic online unless I edit if, but basically I had very little fat to take out!

Procedure was SOOO quaint, prompt and informative. I really love doctor Fondacaro!! He's amazing and made me feel very at ease.

The pain is very minimum and only at random outer areas for just a second. He made sure t move from that area if I said it hurt and in my case my lipo took less than 1 hour (again, very little fat deposit to take out). It's incredible how easy the procedure wax, especially since having my wonderful bf every step of the way. I plan to stay at his house for at least a week until my stomach is in a good position.

I'm a dancer. So in hoping the swelling does down in maybe 2 months so I can have a source of income. More concerned about the horror stories I hear from Round the world-ripples thT don't go away, saggy skin etc I have never been pregnant or overweight , I'm 25 so I think we should be good. At home right after the surgery and no discomfort yet. I'll keep you guys updates. Sorry I can't post pics because I have tattoos and do modeling an ID like to be discreet about this one. VERY EXCITED for the outcome

Let me know if you have questions or a private PRIVATE Pic of the stomach So far

Sorry about the millions of typos and sillyness in the first review-was still feeling the effect of the nerves cocktail.

Anywho, bled through like 4 pads placed inside the garment by this morning, but surprisingly didn't mess up my bf bed or car coming back from surgery. When we changes the dressings today upon waking we applied arnica gel (stomach isn't bruised but HIPS are for some reason. Those were actually the spots where it hurt at times. I think the numbing fluid didn't cover those areas maybe). My hips are looking like they may bruise and there are a lot of lines that look like claw marks (from the laser or tube or whatever), raised and red but I suspect it's normal.

Only thing bothering me is that the incision sites seemed to close, and I'm wondering whether there's a thousand tons of fluid trapped in me now? Should I lay on my stomach? Poke em open? (Jokes). Doctors isn't open today so I can't call and ask.

We put lipo foam over majority of the areas because I figure the holes are healed anyway lol. And for the record I can already tell the area is flatter, dispute bruising

I looked like a beach ball. There's weird pattern dents from my stupid boyfriend getting the genius idea to cut the lipo foam all up. Wasted money now -__- We didn't use the foam after that

But as you see, very swollen and tender. That night I started wearing a binder over the compression garmet, as I felt it wasn't very tight. The foam helped the weird claw marks on my hips kind of, but I'm worried about them. I had a little stretch marks but not HORIZONTAL ones, you know?

We walked around the block and back last night, and today (day 3) I walked a little more. Hurt a teeny bit by the end of it. In general the pain is mostly just when I wake up (or over exert myself). But consider I'm taking like 1000mg of Tylenol every 5 or 6 hours

I know it's too early to tell if anything is going badly but still...Question-are those inflamed horizontal claw looking marks on my hips normal??

Going today with just the compression garment, and will shower tonight. I'll post pics of what's going on tomorrow

Stay hydrated and eat pineapples or drink pineapple juice,if you are not allergic to it. It does help with your swelling. Get your rest.
