How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

don't let feelin good on narcotics fool u!
So the title is self explanatory. I woke up @8am n took a muscle relaxer and nothing else. I was feeling so good the other days I thought I'd be ok... LOL. I took tylenol an hr ago and I still feel like I got hit by a small car. Smh... I just took another muscle relaxer, but idk if it's gonna help much. Either way, don't wait till ur almost out of pain pills 2 cut back (and it's a weekend). If you're gonna scale down do it when you can slowly increase time between doses, because I'm MISERABLE! Ugh I'm gonna go as long as I can without my norco, but I doubt I'll make it till dark smh.....
5 days post op
It seems my body is changing every day! My waist is mall, my stomach is flat, and my butt is big and believable (to those meeting me for the 1st time). I actually didn't even expect my stomach to be this flat! My butt seems to be rounding out a little more each day and my shelf isn't as obvious as b4, so I have full confidence that after a few weeks I'll have my perfect butt. I def made the right choice in going with Dr. Shanklin.
As for my recovery, I'm going to try today with no pain killers (except 1 after I woke up). My body is super stiff though so the muscle relaxers may be calling my name lol. I'm still walking like a little old lady, but it's gettin easier each day. Now I just have 2 deal with the random sharp pains, itching skin, and [RS bleep] garment ugh. I actually have my garment off now, and though I HATE it, I also hate the way my skin feels so and sensitive without it. Oh last thing I tried on a very tight maxi dress that I hated even with spanx on and it looked GREAT on me! I can't wait till I can hop in my car n go some place. Happy healing ladies!

phenergan is a life saver!
Ok I've been itchin like hell and I couldn't get it to stop with benadryl, but phenergan has saved my life! If you get prescribed this use it to stop the itches! I was basically tearing my skin until I took some! Ugh sweet relief, and you have no clue until u try it. Also, I barely have any bruising and I think it's because of the vaser lipo technique (which I'm pretty sure is why my skin looks like it's reattaching too).
