I'm really just hoping to eliminate my problem...
WORTH IT$8,000
I'm really just hoping to eliminate my problem areas so I can finally compete next year in my first bodybuilding competition. I eat very healthy and lift 5-6x a week but seem to have impossibly stubborn fat since its been there since I was a child. Always a chunky kid I lost 50lbs on my own but having issues with these last few areas.

Honestly you looked great before but now you look amazzzzzzziiiinnnnggg. You paid 8000, I haven't seenlipo that high with no fat transfer to booty. Is he a top surgeon. Also how many areas treated? how much fat taken out? How long were you under? Thanx

Also does this dr. use leg pumps to prevent blood clots during surgery?

I had my bra pad, flank/love handles, and upper and lower abs done. 4800ccs of fat along w. some blood and solution. Post surgery I've lost 20 lbs now. Cost was $4000 for first area (includes garmet, drugs, op room, etc. Each additional area worked on was $2000. I used carecredit to front the cost and make payments like you would a car payment. No leg pumps used not sure what those are but my legs were freely laying on the table. I was awake and felt almost nothing

I went to LIFT BODY CENTER located in Schaumburg il. To do your upper and lower abs it would be $4000

It was a close call on the amount of meds they could inject but they said they could do it. Towards the end I did feel some discomfort while he was doing my bra pad but we were able to get everything done with minimal discomfort

The amount of the medicine they can use is based on your weight and prior to surgery I was 183 now I'm 162

This is my first time having a surgery of any kind, I am honestly not afraid, but extremely excited. I have worked really hard to lose close to 50lbs only to hit this impossible plateau and still not have a nice feminine shape. I know I am not fat, and I know this is not a weight loss method but just want to get rid of the unsightly flank fat that hides my round bottom making it look square. Along with the flank fat I have trouble with stubborn lower abdominal and my bra pad area. Fingers Crossed

Day of treatment
Today was the big day!
Well I arrived 20minutes late due to an accident but they were very understanding and forgiving. I checked in made my "down payment" seend as I am using a loan for the rest through carecredit. I took my urine analysis and got changed into my garmets. Thegirls took my photos and weight. There was a bit of waiting through all of this but I'm a patient woman. Then my surgeon came in and marked me up. Due to my amount of tattoos I may not show to many photos of my body but will block them out for before during and after 6wks. So far I am extremely pleased. They were all so very kind, I got to listen to my Pandora on my phone and take a few pictures. When he hit some tender spots under armpit the assistant held my hand and rubbed my hair it really helped me stay calm and relaxed. Out of all three areas I had done the upper back bra pad area was the uncomfortable area, but staying within limits on anesthesia they took care of me. I am draining ALOT already been through 2 pants and 3 shirts but better out then in! Any questions please ask I'm an open book
