Upper/lower Abdominal, Flanks, Outer Thigh - Springboro, OH

I have worked out my whole life and can never get rid of my problem areas--especially my love handles. They are the first place I put on weight and the last place when I lose weight. I'm not fat, by any means, but want to look and feel better in my skin (and clothes). I'm 5'5" and 145lbs just to give ya'll an idea. I had been really scared about lipo in general and said i would NEVER do it. Then my husband surprised me and said it was not a big deal if i wanted to get it b/c he had a couple years back! I was shocked--really? So I started looking into it and found laserlipo and vaserlipo. I was not sure which procedure to go with, but talked to a few doctors, looked on here, and decided to go with the doctor who had more experience, in general, and he does the laserlipo.

It is the morning of the procedure and I'm a little nervous, but will keep you all posted of my progress. I know it helped me in reading posts like this. Hopefully it helps someone else.

So I just got done with the procedure. I'm still a little shaking but feeling ok b/c I'm still numb. I'm actually waiting on my husband to fill 2 prescriptions I might need - Ativan (to sleep) and then Vikatin (pain). My doc said I might not need the painkiller, but just in case.
So the procedure - it is just luke everyone described it. The upper stomach hurt most, but it wasn't unbearable pain. First they took pics and marked me up. Then they laid me down and santized my belly. Then they sprayed my incision spots with numbing cold stuff and gave me a litocaine shot for each. Then they made the incision in all areas. All of this I barely felt. The next part was the most uncomfortable - putting the numbing solution in. Youza - it hurt for like 3secs for each stroke of his wand. Like I said - not unbearable. After this I felt nothing except for maybe a tug here or there. He put the laser in to melt the fat and then he sucked it out. I hated the movement he had to do to get the fat, but what else u going to do to get it?! He started with my abs, moved to my flanks, then my outer thighs with the same procedure. Afterword the nurse cleaned me up squeezed as much of the fluid out as she could and put me in my garment with bandaids and pads over my incisions. I'm leaking pretty good which is to be expected. My belly feels big with jelly - it's weird. I'm not supposed to take the garment off at all this week except to shower, so tomorrow when I do, i'll take photos. I don’t expect good results though until 3 mths. I have to remember -patience is a virtue.
Oh about my doc and nurse, very nice and gentle. If I hurt he asked if I needed him to take a break. They wanted me to be as comfortable as possible. They even had a cable TV and DVD player to watch if I wanted to. So far I recommend Smartlipo center of ohio in Springboro. More to come.

Actually the sleeping pill is ambien oh, I am 27.
