Smart Lipo: Was not worth it
Cost: $12,000
Pain: Uncomfortable
Satisfaction: Poor

I had smart lipo of my upper and lower abs, arms, and bra fat area. The recovery process is lenghty and the results do not look natural.
Infact I didn’t even see any kind of measurable result on the bra fat and arms. I didn’t have much fat to begin with.
On my stomach I had more fat. And a lot of it was removed. However, I have pockets of fat now. And my stomach is harder and bulges aboved my belly botton, goes in and then pops a little under my ribs. This surgery is just that. Don’t be fooled by the quick and easy advertising.
It hurt when I sneezed for a week. When I went over a bump in the car, I could feel some pain. Basically your insides are being probed and dug into with this skinny tube. Then the muscle has to reattach again.
It is now 5 months out for me and I finally stopped wearing a garment. I tried to stop after six weeks, but I felt like I needed the support, plus my stomach looked pretty bad until this last month.
The doctor told me I need a "TOUCH UP". I love the term touch up as if it were a less invasive quicky. It is still the same process, but usually less area needs to be tampered with.
I won’t get this touch up until summer is over, because I do not want to ruin it.
