I am a 27 yrs old African American woman with a medium frame. My stomach has always been my trouble area. In August I had blood work done at Guyer Molecular Institute. At this time my blood work revealed that I needed to take thyroid pills, vitamin D, and some other supplements. At this time I met with {edited – provider information is located above the review for registered users}'s coordinator/assistant who informed me about the liposmart procedure. She told me that it would be pain free and I was skeptical. I found this site and after reading some peoples reviews I was very scared. However I am very impress with {edited} and I scheduled the procedure. September 16, 2007 at 1:15pm I was scheduled for my procedure.

I went into one of the rooms changed into the panties and bra they gave me. My measurements and pictures were taken. Dr came in marked on my body ask if I had any questions and left the room. I went into the procedure room pick out some cds and layed on the table. The assistant came in sanitized my stomach. Dr came in gave me two shots on both sides and pumped my stomach with litocane (I may not be spelling it correctly/sorry) He told me that most people says that this part hurts. Honestly it didn't hurt at all, I just felt like a tire being pumped with air. Dr. began the procedure with the laser and he was very gentle. I told him that I thought I had to drink a gallon of water a day which was why I had to use the bathroom. After he finishes with the laser I went to the bathroom and my stomach look funny I could actually see the little bubbles.

He started using the suction or what ever you call it and sucked the fat out. He said that my fat was coming out pretty easily. After about 30 mins to an hr he went back in with the laser. He said that this way I would still be burning fat 12mts later. His assitant said that I had very little drainage and it was probably because of all the water I drink a week before the procedure. She put some pad over the two needle size holes on each side and put on my girdle and I went home. Before I left I was given fat burning cream and pain cream that my doctor manufactures at his office to rub on my stomach.

Honestly I have had no pain what so ever and I would recommend this procedure but find a good doctor.

Pre-op: I was instructed to take two Cephalexin a day for 5 days.

I put peroxide and Neosporin on my pads, however the holes are so small and I am barely that can’t really see the holes.

I have used the bathroom all this morning and I am feeling like I am deflating. I wonder if this is normal. I don't see a huge difference yet matter a fact got on the scale and I am 10 mts heavier at the moment.

I am very pleased with my experience and I definitely feel bad for all those who had a bad experience. I wish you all the best....

I will post pics very soon

ndave, I dont think any doctor will work on more then 3 areas at a time. I had my upper and lower abs done as well as my flanks. I experienced no pain what so ever but everyone is different. As you can see from the post pain has ranged from pain free to extreme pain per individual. I never had my thighs done and what I have read on this site it seems to be a bit more painful. Good Luck

are we talking no pain during the procedure or after the procedure or both? I had a GREAT pain free procedure but recovery has been a sore, tender and rough road in some ways.

Luzan, I haven't had any pain during or after. I did feel a little stingy waking up this morning but I think that is because I didn't wear my garment last night.
