I am a mother of two 4 and 8 after my second baby I.had an.umbilical hernia repaired after that it left me with a weird looking softball of fat around my belly button ,I had it liposuction off but the lipo needed to be touched up and left me lumpy.In certain lights you can also see the loose skin in my belly most of that is from the pregnancy ,I had it before the lipo.I Am hoping the smart lipo.can tighten the skin a bit and even out the lumpyness AND while I'm at it ,Suck out the fat on it and get rid of those love handles!!!! I just hope it doesn't hurt like crazy ugh

You look good already.  You can get really great results!!!  Did the doctor say that he thinks the skin will be tightened?  Lipo is not usually good at that part, even though Smart Lipo does tend to be a little better.  Usually they recommend a tt.

He said a TT would be too aggressive for my situation,he expects great improvement with just the smart lipo. Fingers crossed!

I am miserable, it will not go down I cannot fit into anything at all, even my scrubs are super tight. My belly is rock hard too. Very odd feeling for sure

It will eventually go down,but mine starting as like a baseball the gradually went down slowly going from one huge ball to small ;);) err balls then eventually disappeared ,but I remember it never really looking right after that. But I have other girlfriend that had them done and it looks completely fine. Good luck

Ah I am so nervous I feel the pain already!!! I sometimes wonder why I would do this to myself. All in vanity I guess.

You will look great. If you don't already know ask the Dr about aftercare for the little punctured areas made to facilitate the cannula. I still have marks from mine but after two kids myself I still have the curves except now I'm 10lbs from my ideal weight which I think I'm gonna keep to do my BBL :-) Anyway please post pics of the results.
