53 Year Old Post-menopausal

I usually don't write reviews but thought this might help somebody else make decision. It was kind of an impulse decision. I paid $200 deposit then started looking at reviews. I cancelled once after reading all the complaints about pain and swelling and almost cancelled the second. Didn't take any before pictures because I didn't think I would go through with it. I had lower abdomen treated and when first put on "vacuum" it did hurt. No pain after about 5-10 minutes. Had a good "stick of butter " when completed Dreaded the massage because of all of the comments regarding pain. Was a little uncomfortable but nothing to bad. My abdomen is swollen, some bruising and a little tender to touch. Pictures are 2 days after procedure. Done at sona med spa by nurse practitioner. Hope it works!!

Day 3 still swollen, bruised and a little tender. Continue with numbness and occasional stinging type pain.think I may be a little more swollen than yesterday. Kind of look pregnant. Hope that goes away soon I've always thought I have a pretty high pain tolerance and so far the worst pain was when first attached before area was numb. Keep reading how day 4 was horrible pain. Will let you know tomorrow.

Days 4-5 there was really no big changes. Day 6 the itching was pretty intense. Woke me up several times during the night. Any type of waist band pretty uncomfortable. Day 7 the itching is better but discomfort has increased. It's not really a pain but more a burning/stinging sensation. Swelling and bruising mostly gone. Patience is not really my virtue, but I'm trying to keep in mind most everything I've read says don't expect results for at least 2-3 weeks at the earliest.
