So..I recently started looking into smart lipo about two weeks ago. Ive been searching intensely on YouTube, real self, doctor sites, and google. I saw many great reviews, and was excited to know I can be awake for the procedure. Seeing that I could be awake, as well as proceed to my every day life after a few days convinced me to move forward. Sooo after researching, I’ve found a doctor (Scott Brenman MD, FACS) to complete my first consultation. I went to his office located in the Plymouth meeting area, and felt comfortable. Prior to visiting the office, I’ve made up my mind that I will get it...So it’s all about finding the doctor to do it.

Consultation

Days after researching:

I felt very comfortable to decide I will definitely get smart lipo. At this point, I searched doctors on real self and google, and sent requests for a few consultations on real self. I received one phone call from the 3 people I contacted on real self, however I personally contacted another (Scott B.) through his personal website. Out of all people I were interested in, he was the only with a free consultation. I received a consultation at his office the very next day and went. Prior to the consultation, the office assistant told me about financing and ran my credit for approval. I okayed the credit run (but idk if that was too soon or not) however, I was APPROVED!!! The pricing range was around $6,000!!! SO: 

•The office was very nice, clean, and relaxing. •the receptionist/office staff (Gina) was very nice and welcoming.  

•I filled out two papers (patient info/medical history) 

•I was taken right back to meet w/ the doctor: (he was gentle, patient, and seemed very educated and experienced) He provided the procedure details, took a look at the areas I want done, took pics, and told me a was a great candidate. He also told me the medicines I would need, such as Percocet, Ativan, and so on.  

•After the consultation I did not immediately book, although I did feel comfortable. Because I did not book, I did receive a lot of texts from the office assistant about being available to book when I’m ready, which seemed weird, but I did continue to keep them in mind.

Pre-Op Pictures: Appt made for procedure (October 11th)

After the consultation with Dr. Scott Brenman, I proceeded to make the appt with him. I will be getting the procedure done on Thursday October 11th at 8am, in his Plymouth Meeting, Pa office. My total price came out to $6,495.00. I was approved through care credit for $6,000.00, with a $495.00 balance to be paid out of pocket. (If interested in doctors whose prices are expensive, ask about “care credit”) I am now awaiting a few prescriptions for medicine I will take prior to the procedure to help with pain and possible anxiety, while continuing to research and prepare for the actual day. I will follow up in a few days once the procedure is complete.
Here are four pictures as of now BEFORE the surgery takes place: (full abdomen, left side of stomach, right side of stomach, and back area)
