As a RS stalker myself for a few years now, I am going to keep my review short and sweet. I was someone who was more interested in the basics and photos.
I am 49 years old I am 5'2 1/2" tall and weighed 118lbs when I had my consultation in November. I am someone who usually stays around that weight give or take 3lbs. I have always have had a small area of fat under my belly button. I would exercise like a maniac and diet to no end. Still it remained.
I stalked Dr Su and Artistic lipo online and on RS for a few years. Dr Gruber ended up joining him at Artistic lipo and she does amazing work as well. So far I am very pleased with how everything is going. I am one week and one day after my surgery. On the day of surgery I weighed 120.4 but Dr Gruber assured me that it was ok to be a little puffier as it helps them to find the areas that need work.
I will add more pics of my progress as I go along.

can you share wether or not you had any pain during the procedure

I did have some pain because the numbing agent she used didn't work as well on me so she switched to something else and it was fine. I would say it is not something to be afraid of.

I love your results! By any chance did you get massages done throughout your recovery? I currently am two weeks post lipo and have developed lump about a day ago. I was told that lymphatic massages will help dissolve my issue. Ultimately, I’d like smooth results such as yours!

I did not get a professional massage. I did some at home massage on myself. I still have a lump 6 months post above my belly button. I go back to the PS next Friday. I will give you an update then.
