Smartlipo..worth the Money but Dont Believe Everything You Hear - San Antonio

Update..I decided to try it again on May 4, 2011.This time I got regular liposuction in my upper and lower abs. I went to a double board certified plastic surgeon and lets just say that when I left the hospital I seen results. So much for the I just swell theory. This go around was less painful which is weird bc I thought smartlipo was suppose to have minimal pain..oh well..I have a posting under liposuction with some pictures. I am looking foward to seeing my final results..

Update..so I recently had my 3 month follow up and no results. I am the same size I was pre-surgery (weight and measurements). So I would say the procedure was unsuccessful. I am considering a re-touch. The Dr couldnt understand herself why there weren't any changes. Today I received a call saying that my hips have gotten bigger so its possible I gained weigh in that area, but that doesnt explain why there were no changes in my stomach area. The Dr said that I should try to lose the weight in my hips and then we will look at re-touch options. I dont understand, my hips werent even done so I dont understand how that has an effect on my stomach. On top of that I only gained less than an inch in my hips..like I said no weight gain..Still not satified, waste of money!

It has been two weeks since my smartlipo procedure. I will update pictures probably next week. I can not say I am completely happy with my results thus far but I am trying to stay hopeful that I didnt waste my money. I get frustrated when I look at other people pictures on here, day 1 or 2 and showing a big difference. I am at week 2 and I look how I did before the surgery. I am still swollen and sore in in my lower abs.I can tell that is going down slowly, but still there. I will try to stay positive. Every body is different, maybe mine will just take forever to heal
