How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

1 month- finally some results
At long last! The swelling in some areas is starting to go down and I'm beginning to see some results. Most notable is the bra roll and around the top. Lower areas still very hard and swollen, still quite painful. Seems a lot of water retention in my lower stomach and pubic area, too.
But finally SOME results!
I've included before and after pics. The different contouring is very obvious. To look at the pics you'd assume that there was a difference in size- but I'm still bigger around the waist and hips. About a 1 inch reduction under my bust.
The pics also highlight some of the weird lumps. The left side in particular is still very hard and lumpy- one pic clearly shows a weird protruding bit of flesh.
That said, I'm beginning to feel like it's getting better every day- less painful by far and hopefully I'll continue to shrink!
I do wonder if the diuretic helped, because the results really started to come on when I began taking it.
Really happy to be writing my first (mostly) positive update :)

Almost 3 weeks and WAY BIGGER than before!
I just wanted to post a quick update with pictures showing how much bigger I am than before. Most of my clothes no longer fit me because I'm so much bigger. This skirt used to fir me perfectly- now I cant even close the zip- I'm INCHES bigger!
I feel really upset and angry that it wasn't explained to me that this procedure would actually make me BIGGER. I knew to expect some swelling, but not this much and not for this long! If I had've known, I never wouldve got it done.

Day 15
Finally no more 24hr compression garments! What a relief it was to finally not sleep in them! I noticed an almost immediate reduction in swelling the day after they came off. Though to be honest I wear shaping pantyhose during the day so I'm not completely without CGs, but still, it's a lot better.
Was back at work on Monday and it's really painful sitting at the desk at day - especially when I need to get up. Walking after sitting for 1+ hours is really painful. Driving is also pretty painful.
In terms of results, I'm really still waiting. Minimal reduction in size, not really noticeable at all. My "shape" has changed, though. As the photos show, my tummy looks weird and wrinkled when I'm sitting. When just standing, the contour on my stomach seems weird, too. Like in and out in strange and different areas of my abdomen.
Bruising on my legs is starting to fade. I got some vitamin K cream, so hopefully that will help!
I can also feel fat in places where it supposed to have been suctioned. You can tell the difference between hardness/swelling compared to fat. And there is definitely fat on my upper right back. It's been completely missed- there is no numbness, swelling, hardness- just fat same as before. But the other side has been suctioned. Same goes for my left inner thigh- it's not the same as the right side, still sections of fat and no numbness etc. I wonder if I should tell the clinic but I can imagine they'll just tell me I need to wait to see results.
Hopefully I'll begin to see a change over the next couple of weeks. I'm really worried that I've spent all this money and got no benefit/results from this procedure at all.
