27 Interested in Getting Liposuction - Philadelphia, PA
ORIGINAL POST
I'm very interested in getting liposuction done to...
$9,000
I'm very interested in getting liposuction done to my abdomen, flanks, and arms. I recently went to 3 Drs. For a consultation. The 1st dr I went to I found on realself he has good reviews but not many about liposuction. During the consultation he was very nice extremely professional but when I asked for pictures of his work he didn't have any to show me. His coordinator told me to look on realself. But not too many pictures of liposuction patients. Ok with Dr. #2 when I went for my consultation very nice, professional, made me feel comfortable and excited about getting the procedure done. He showed me pictures of his work and also showed many body types like mines. Love the pictures and work on other patients, but the only thing about him is I can't really find any reviews about him. Now Dr. #3 for our consultation was great as well. Her work was ok to me, but she also doesn't have many reviews. she also said she knows Dr.#2 and that he's worked with her. She said he came from her. And he's a good Doctor. Both dr 2&3 specialize in liposuction(smart Lipo & vaser Lipo). All 3 doctors gave me around the same price and I'm fine with that. I'm just skeptical because it's a lot of money and I'm investing in myself. And want the best results. PLEASE GIVE ME INSIGHT ON TO MAKE A DECISION. I'm located in Philadelphia. And really don't know what to do. Please recommend other doctors as well. I'm looking to get this done around April or May thanks.

Who are the doctors?

I had my tummy tuck by Scott Brenman. Stay far away! I mean he's nice but the after care was horrible. I'm actually going in for lipo and heard great things about Falcone.

Wow really, dr brenman wasn't my first choice. I'm leaning towards dr falcone and dr Bryant. Hopefully someone will see my post and can me insight on both doctors

I have but they really don't come up, not anything that makes me say "I wanna go with that one". But I have recently learned that my cousin wife went to Dr Bryant and she said he made her stomach really flat. But I can't just go off one person. But I will definitely keep y'all posted. Thanks

Decision made
HELLO EVERYONE. SO I'VE MADE A DECISION AND DECIDED TO GO WITH DR. #2. I'M SCHEDULED TO HAVE THE PROCEDURE APRIL 27th and 28th. IM SCHEDULED FOR 2 DAYS BECAUSE IM HAVING MY UPPER & LOWER ABDOMEN, ANTERIOR WAISTLINE, MID BACK, LOW BACK, FLANKS, BRA-LINE, and FULL ARMS. WITH A TOTAL OF 9 AREAS. HE SAID ITS SAFER TO DO 2 DAYS INSTEAD OF 1 DAY BECAUSE I WILL BE UNDER LOCAL ANESTHESIA. AND ALSO GOING INTO A HOSPITAL WOULD BE PRICIER. MY OTHER CONSULTS SAID THE SAME THING ABOUT A 2-DAY PROCEDURE. SO IM FINE WITH THAT. I AM NERVOUS ABOUT BEING AWAKE DURING THE PROCEDURE. SO I WENT TO GET MY BLOOD WORK DONE AND IM READY TO GO. IM SO EXCITED BUT NERVOUS AS HELL. I JUST HOPE EVERYTHING TURNS OUT GREAT. I will keep you guys posted on my journey to a new me

Congrats on deciding to get smart lipo. I got mine done, just the flanks, two days ago and I was nervous about being up too. The only pain I felt was the initial pinch and other than that it was more ticklish than anything lol. Congrats and keep us updated

What I need for recovery
Hello everyone,
So my surgery is 2 weeks away and the anticipation is killing me lol. I feel as though I'm reinventing myself. So I always google the procedure and watched YouTube videos of how it's done and I've looked at before and after pics. And read reviews about how they felt about the procedure. Could someone tell me what I will need during the recovery time. Like what I would need during the next couple of weeks after the procedure, far as for the drainage etc etc THANKS SO MUCH
