WORTH IT$5,500

New inner thigh pics and "hip roll" pics.  I am still in my compression garment and swollen--procedure was done on 8-25 so I'm 2 days out.  A little sore from this one because the area worked on was a tender area anyway.  Already in smaller size pants (6) and I couldn't be happier.

Did you go to {edited}? I am scheduled for abs and love handles 1 week today and hope my results look as good as yours. I'm not really worried because I know he is a good doctor. thanks for the post you look great. How did the thighs go? I am scheduled for that procedure on September 23, 2008 Kathryn Editor note: Provider information is located above the review for registered users.

Hi there. I went to {edited - provider information is located above the review for registered users} in Melbourne/Orlando and he's fabulous. The inner thighs are great. I'm in a size smaller pants already. I had them done on the 25th as they had an earlier opening. I can't say enough about Dr. Bassin and the staff--they're wonderful! Instead of thighs, I did what's called the hip roll (cute) but it made a huge difference as well. It's the area where your love handles stop and your hips are--front and back. It all went really well and I am a bit sore from this because of where the work was done. I just feels like I worked out too hard. Good luck! You'll be beautiful!

Thank you! It is the best thing I've done for myself! Just be sure the Doctor makes you feel comfortable about his/her experience with the procedure and try to see pictures of their actual patients. If you live anywhere near Florida, just go to Orlando or Melbourne and see this Doctor. He was chosen as one of the few people to teach this procedure to other plastic surgeons. Alternately, the doctor he was instructing is going to LA on Sept 1st and I wouldn't think twice about him doing the procedure either.1-he's learned from the best and 2- I let him do my thigh while Doctor Bassin did the other and he's very talented, too. I don't work for these doctors so that's not why I'm so gushy about them, I'm just so happy with my results. Pain obviously, is relative. I didn't require any pain medicine, etc. but ask your doctor if you think you need it--they should do that for you. Hope it works out the way you want it to--it's a thrill for me to put on my skinny pants!!

did you have any shivering from the epi in the fluid thanks for sharing

No, I didn't. I've not heard of that. But it is a great procedure and I hope you have a good result. There was a little sensation during the laser part but not pain, then it's nothing (to me at least). If you don't tolerate pain well, I'd ask for an Ativan or something as long as someone will drive you home. I drove myself home the second time. No problem sharing--I'm so thrilled!!

8-21---Boy this is great!! Swelling is still...

8-21---Boy this is great!! Swelling is still getting better and my skin is tightening and I couldn't be happier.  One thng i forgot to post--DO NOT settle for a tummy tuck before you check this procedure.  My Mom's plastic surgeon in Texas told us both that we would need a tummy tuck.  Several ladies I know had the same experience and had this done instead and all are pleased.  Tummy tucks take so much down time not to mention scars, etc. He didn't do Smart Lipo so.... If a doctor that DOES Smart Lipo tells you you need a Tummy Tuck, OK but otherwise, check this out!  Thighs to be done on 8-29 and I will post pics after that.
