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

I had the proceedure yesterday 8AM, June 26, 2011. Was looking into it since 2009 and quit smoking 10 months ago. I made the decision and called. I had to have an EKG being over 40-I am 47, and gained at least 30lbs in the past 10 months. After too many people asking if I was pregnant I went for it! My BMI was high and I almost did not qualify. After watching youtube videos and reading reviews I was fully prepared. One review Osoexicited really helped me. I was treated with utmost care and kindness and they did everything no to stress me and be calm. It only was uncomfortable by my ribs and a few time the doctors said my muscle was close. I was half out of it and slept some too. I was up and out by Noon.

I laid a baby bed pad on my bed and topped that with Adult doggie pads which I changed about 3 times at night. Drank tons of water and only took half a pill of the pain killers each time. I am a bit uncomfortable but not bad at all. Not for the squemish. There is plenty of dripping blood and I make shifted a diaperlike chasity belt for the dripping blood with a two maxi pads taped all the way from my front to back-this did really well and it was the only thing I had to change for the 24 hours until I took off the body suit and showered. One recommendation I read helped-but up maxi pads and tape them over cuts -works well after the shower. I also recommend having garments but it does clean easily in the sink- use peroxide as per the instructions to get the blood out. Blot with a towel and hang dry like you would a bathing suit.

Make sure you eat before you go for surgery and afterwards. Keep drinking water. Also stairs aggravate it and the wounds will bleed more in the beginning so I avoided stairs for the first 12 hours. My doctor called me after 24hrs and was helpful with any questions I had. Make sure you have someone take you and pick you up-very important. Will post more and photos in a few days.
