Smart Lipo Not Worth It and Was over Priced

I had the inner and outer thighs done. I went through alot of pain and stiffness for a good 5-6 weeks. I didn't see but about a 1/2 " reduction. So was it worth it. NO!!!

I really wanted it to work is why I paid premium for a procedure. My Dr. isn't standing behind my results and for that I am truly disappointed.

The procedure isn't that bad or traumatic so I believe I must have had an inexperienced Dr. and didn't ensure I had enough of a "guarntee" to feel I got some of my money worth.

Truly disappointed and making payments... should have just got the boob job... then noone would notice my thick thighs.

Wow, that totally stinks. I know there is no gaurantee of results but if you are this unhappy your doctor should accommodate you somehow. I have horrible saddlebags and i've been considering this procedure butyou are making me think twice about it. thanks for sharing

I had my inner and outer thighs done before Thanksgiving. I also paid $6k. Very little pain except the first two days after. Recovery was nothing. I have lost at least 1.5 inches on each leg, and I am wearing my prepregnancy jeans now. I can't see the difference as much as I can feel the difference in my clothes. My post op pics aren't scheduled until MLK day, but overall, I'm pretty satisfied. I just wish it had been cheaper.

Hi. I feel for you b/c I am 10 days post op on small area of my outer-thigh and not seeing much of a difference. I am trying not to think about it b/c it makes me sick, considering the money I shelled out. I was not expecting miracles, I just had a 5 inch diameter area I wanted taken care of. Even worse is the fact, that my left leg is larger than my right. I am hoping it's just a difference in the healing process. I am going back to the doctor for first post op appt. in a couple days and I am anxious to see what she thinks. Some doctors will offer touch ups at no cost for thse patients that are unhappy or have asymmetry. I am hoping my doctor is one of them. I could kick myself for not asking that question before I had the procedure done! Probably should have had the boob job instead too.

Who was your doctor?

Hi! I'm looking into this procedure and would love to know where you went. I have heard that Dr. Estivo didn't do a good job, and wondered if that is where you went. I want to make sure I choose a good place, if I decide to have anything done. Thanks!
