WORTH IT$3,500

As a life-long exerciser I wasn't prepared for the belly fat that came with menopause. Losing weight just made my legs skinnier and face look older.

Mild discomfort but I exercised hard the next day. After a few days I get itchy and a bit sore in the treated areas but it goes away in about 10 days.

I'm fitting into clothes that I wouldn't have been able to before and people are commenting on my "weight loss".

I'll have a follow up appointment in March but my results have been so good I don't think that I will need more treatments.

Not Very Painful but Lots of Numbness

I had my first treatment on my double chin last Saturday. I was worried about the pain of the treatment but it was less painful than holding straight ice against the skin. The big thing about the actual treatment was the suction and how long it would take. I was told about 1hr for it but because I had two app...

30 Years Old, Wanted a Tiny Bit of Abdominal Fat Gone -- Starting to see results!

I'm 30, 5'4 and 110 pounds. I've always been fairly thin, especially arms and legs, but always had a little fat lingering in the lower abdominal area, even at my skinniest.
