Results

$16,000
I can see the difference but feel I am still boxy - wanted more waist definition. Started low carbing and seeing someone for non invasive results.

I did get a bad infection after surgery and ended up in the hospital for an entire week.
I totally see a difference! However I also went to Dr. Precht last year and still feel very unsatisfied with the procedure. I spent $11k and believe she could have been a lot more aggressive with how much fat she took out. When I went back and expressed my concerns, it didn’t do much. I wish I had gone to a different doctor with the amount of money I spent to be unhappy with my results. It was too painful and too expensive to wake up and wish I had gone elsewhere
I spent problem close to 20k plus hospital expenses. Could have been better too
Did you go back and say anything?
I got to say your results are impressive but what a terrible experience. I'm so sorry you wen through this. May I ask at what period you saw mot shrinkage? I had same procedure, and around the same removed close to a month ago. I'm already seeing a difference but from what I read, most don't for a few months.
I think your results are fantastic! Like Redflower said it takes several months to see final results. Have you seen any additional results to-date. How many areas did you have treated? Did you pay $11K or $20K? Even through the slight disappointment, did Dr Precht have great & sanitary facilities and great staff. Was she professional and talented. I would be flying there and want to know if it will be worth it?
One more question. Did you have more than one session (how many)?
Hi there. I thought I would reply too since I went to the same dr. I did it all in one. Whole abdominal area and back and upper middle thighs. The other two surgeons wanted me to do it in two. Im actually glad I didn't. Recovery was tough but I like to get things over with
Awesome. Thank You Ladies!

Day 4

Okay today I finally feel like I am turning the corner. Was able to go from Diludid to Vicodin. Lots of drainage still. showering and changing the pads and garment feels like running a marathon. I pretty swollen still but not too badly bruised. Here is a picture of my yucky fat!!! I am drinking Miralax because haven’t been able to poop since surgery I am also taking some Arnica I bought at the clinic.

How are you feeling now? Also what was the rough cost of this?
was in hospital for a week after. much better now
Would love to hear how your recovery is going and to see some progress pics! Looks like an exciting procedure! Would you mind also sharing the cost? I know it's all very personalized, but it's helpful to know what something like that can go for in this area

Day 3

Where to begin. Dr Pretch and her team are amazing. They hav been checking on me since surgery day on Wednesday. The pain last night seemed unbearable. Vicodin wasn’t working for me so we switched to hydromorphone. I am extremely swollen and lots of bruising. I am not your average healer .... everything takes longer for me. I have been sleeping in my lift chair which has been a lifesaver. Here are my pictures right before surgery on Wednesday- it took her 5 hours
