I was not aware for the retouch they didn't do the smart lipo. I had the regular lipo and man did that hurt! I didn't bruise from the smart lipo however round 2 I was bruise badly. I will post results when the swelling goes down.

Well after my last update I took in account how much I paid vs results. I honestly decided I was not totally happy. My final post op was in May. Took me 7 months Dec 16th 2016 to meet with the doctor who performed the lipo. During our meeting I pointed out I am totally not happy with my upper belly. He showed me doctor's note from the surgery and said he knew he could have did a better job with my upper belly but I kept on complaining about pain. I don't remember that to be honest. I felt no pain during the surgery but I think the jabbing of the lipo wand around my upper belly was freaking me out. Long story short he is performing the whole entire surgery again on my upper belly January 7th 2017. Stay tuned

Hello everyone I know that I have not updated anything in quite some time however since this site has played such a major part in my surgery decision-making I at least take every opportunity that I can to give back to anyone else who was questioning liposuction. So I saw the nurse today and all is well and I guess I'm considered fully healed. I am very happy and satisfied with my lower ab and my waist results. I have a follow-up appointment with the surgeon to talk about my upper AB because I am not too pleased with the results. I can't really see a difference in my before and after pictures however for $6,000 I don't want to have any remanence of a muffin top whenever I wear a pair of jeans. I will keep everyone who is interested updated on my next steps because I'm more than likely will have the procedure repeated with additional fat taking out of my upper abs.

I see clear improvements. If you're not happy you should clearly get a touch up but it's looking great.

I had smart lipo at sono bello 01/14/2017 I'm not happy at all with my flanks, as you said for $6000 you expect too see at least satisfying results, I had my 3 month appointment today but, after how the financing lady or whatever she is treated me, I won't ever again go to sono bello in Scottsdale, I am looking to do more liposuction, but I won't repeat the same mistake.
