Upper,Lower,Love Handles Laser Lipotherme - Saratoga, NY

I Had my one month check up- well it's a few days early but I am still swollen but the nurse told me I am a lot less swollen than most at 1 month and have lost 10 fat pounds (actual fat-not muscle) and a total of 6 inches. I still can't fit into clothes I wore last summer but at least I don't look pregnant any more and I do not have a muffin top!!! Eating way less and drinking tons of water. Doctor put bandaids on my healing scars -he says the moisture of the bandaid helps it heal better because the garment dries it up so much. I thought I would maybe not have to wear the garment anymore- not so. I have been wearing it during the day and sleeping without it at night. Was told to keep wearing it for 12 hours a day. I keep massaging the lumps all the time-especially because it gets tingly and numb- massaging keeps the blood flowing. I do see a difference already and many lumps have gone and smoothed out. I am hoping it keeps shrinking and I was told I still have swelling and will keep seeing improvement. My main concern is to start working out and lose weight in my arms and back so I look balanced. I was told to keep doing what I am doing because it is working so well. I am pleased so far and know I need to be patient. I have seen so many wonderful result from all the other women who have posted their pictures. Thanks to all! PS I have a great doctor-He is a real sweetheart. I went to Advanced Laser MedSpa in Clifton Park, NY. Have another appointment scheduled for an update in 3 months.

Day 10- My body looks much better, the bruises are mostly gone and the swelling seems less. I called doctor yesterday and they told me the swelling stays lower-which it has on me! I am really amazed at how swollen my legs and ankles are. Drinking tons of water. Have been massaging the lumps all over and it stops the tingling. I had two incisions that we not healed so I have been on antibiotics for the past 5 days which make me really tired. I can't move too fast or I start to ache. Good news is that I can see the difference and know it will just keep getting better. No weight loss or gain and I am still in my "fat" clothes-they just fit smoother. No muffin top! I have decided not to post more pictures until a month. Also I have noticed that when I eat anything-I get full quick- that is a plus. I now am not a fan of the garment and look forward to another 2 days were I will only have to wear it 12hrs a day. I will follow instructions because I know it all will help the healing and I want the best results possible. Staying positive!

I had my post-op with my doctor yesterday and he said all looks good-it is only 6 days today and he told me don't even pay attention to it all yet until a few weeks. He told me I will see a huge difference in a month. Right away he asked about if I noticed swelling of my ankles and elswhere- which I have- it is the retention from the saline solution they use. It is harder to get around than I thought the faster I walk the more sore it feels and I get fatigued really quick. I had moved around way too much on day 3 and later that day I started dripping blood from a lower cut when I was out with a friend-not fun. Right now that is the only cut with padding over it still, everything else is now closed up healing and covered with band-aids. The arnica did not magically heal the bruises but my doctor says it can't hurt to keep taking it. I tried the gel and taking the pills. He stressed more that I take my suppliments again-which I am. Also my period came with a vengence and is finally almost done. Told this is not uncommon also.
