34yo. Active. At Target Weight. Getting Inner Thighs Done - Vancouver, BC

Looking back at my old pictures on RS, my thighs seemed to be looking their best in Nov 2016. But I was also at least 5 lb lighter. ..seemed like all my weight went to my upper inner thighs and stomach! Yikes. Anyway, I do notice my pants around the thigh areas have been fitting better - so I'm definitely encouraged! I just need to make sure I keep my exercise and diet in order as well.

So far so good! I won't give up hope until it's at least 3 months post.

So, I got my first treatment on my inner thighs done in Aug 2016. Looking back at the pictures, I was looking pretty good! But since then I gained some weight - maybe about 5 to 8 lb, and it was starting to show in my stomach and upper inner thighs. The mid and lower thighs still looked fine. Starting mid feb, I have been more careful with what I ate and now I'm down 3 lb. But my upper inner thighs are still bothering me so I wanted to get a treatment just for my upper inner thighs! Ideal Image had a promo going on for black Friday and I went in for a consultation thinking I'd get it done then. But the tech said I needed "cool petite" for that area. ..and they didn't have that applicator! Disappointed, I found one place in North Vancouver which carried the cool petite. I got assessed by the doctor (actual doctor, not technician! ! - so pleasantly surprised) and was told I need the regular applicator for inner thighs to see optimal results. I was a bit mad at Ideal Image - I could have gotten it done back then and saved some money!
Anyway, I traveled all that way to see this nice dr so I might as well get it done. The doctor, unlike the last technician who helped me, listened to my concern and placed the applicator exactly where I wanted it. My right thigh was first and I guess the applicator was pressing into my groin too much so my groin was in pain for the whole 35 min. But wanting the best results, I didn't say anything. All in all, the process was unremarkable. No pain post treatment, like last time. Now the waiting game begins!

It has been more than 4 months since I got CS done on my inner thighs and I'm so glad that I got it done! Admittedly, I was hoping for more reduction so I've been contemplating a second treatment. The tech who did my first treatment said she wouldn't recommend a second treatment because there is not enough fat for the applicator to grab (yay?), and now that same verdict is confirmed by another tech at a different place. She said there's not enough bulge. I suppose I should be happy. .. I was also interested in having my bra line and upper arm treated but she said there's no applicator for the bra line yet and they don't have the one for the upper arm at the moment. Well, guess it's money saved for me!

At a side note, I asked about ultherapy for my lower face but oh my, it's a lot more than CS! I was quoted $2700 cdn per treatment and that's already with 25% discount. Plus, results will be subtle and more for prevention than treatment. And it will probably be painful. Yikes! Well, that was an easy decision for me.
