Sono Bello Reviews - Is It Really Effective?

I went in to actually achieve some sort of waist, wasn’t extremely overweight (15lbs to be exact) and regular exercise was not working. A year later I am horrified to look in the mirror every day, I cry about the money and the experience itself, it was all a waste. My breasts for some reason have gotten a whole bra size larger. I am the same weight, yet I am now disfigured, uneven on the sides and still with no waist; in fact, you can say I look worse than before. I complained at the first checkup, was told I was still swollen. I complained, and the three-month checkup and requested to see the doctor. I was told I was still swollen and had to wait for the six-month to see a doctor. The six-month came and went and the doctor who performed the procedure is no longer working there and I must strip down to nothing in front of another stranger to be poked at, measured, judged and have another awful experience with them!

I don’t recommend it! Save your money and go to a real cosmetic surgeon with real experience and knowledge.

I am so so so pleased with the results of my lower ab laser lipo procedure. I had no downtime, awesome follow-ups and care from the Sono Bello team and my results are absolutely amazing! I have received the results I expected and wanted for so long. I cannot be happier. I followed all the instructions given by the Sono Bello's Dr. Onyewu, and staff, and achieved flawless results. Now that the fat has been removed, and I am maintaining my results, I have succeeded in going from a 13 pant size, to a 10 and can even fit an 8.

Hello All, I went to the Manhattan office to register and obtain pricing. I was greeted by an awesome consultant. I was told the cost and got excited to get the surgery started. I gave them a date that I needed for the surgery to be completed on. I went to the Westchester office to have both surgeries done by Dr. Berger. Then I went back to the office for my follow-up and that's when I notified the nurse that I was disappointed. She obviously asked why. I said I was expecting a lot of pain but I was up and about the next day. Thanks Dr. Berger for your painless surgeries, I will and have recommended patients to the Sono Bello Office.

This was a great experience. I had bra back area and waist fat removed. I heard negative reviews, and I had to find out for myself. It was the very opposite. The whole staff was GREAT. I felt really welcomed and everything was explained to me. I knew that they were going to remove fat, but after that, it was up to me to eat right, exercise, and follow directions.

Dr. Case was great; he called me later to see how I was doing. The nurses called, the receptionist. The coordinator was great, I couldn't ask for a better staff. I am very happy with my results. I would recommend this place to everyone. You have to remember it takes time to heal and I am very happy. I see a big difference. We can't all be Barbie dolls but getting close is good too. I'm happy with my body! Thank you Scottsdale Sono Bello.

I would definitely recommend Sono Bello to all my friends and family who are looking for some changes. I had the laser procedure done. I was welcomed by friendly well knowledgeable employees. I truly appreciate all the staff members at the New York location for all the assistance. I want to give special thanks to my surgeon who made sure I was comfortable the whole time. And oh, how I love my outcome. I look and feel great. Thank you Sono Bello.

I had my procedure done 10 days ago and I'm super excited with my result already, I still have a long way to go but I'm feeling and looking fabulous. From the beginning consultation to the day of my surgery, the staff members and Dr Talaie was caring and professional. You'll feel at ease when talking and asking a million and one questions like I did. My nurse Adrienne was kind and sweet. I would recommend Sono Bello Wayne, PA to anyone. Tired of feeling lousy in your own body even after diet and exercise, Sono Bello can help you regain that confidence that you once had. After giving birth to my son my body was never the same, which I expected but over a nine years course I gained weight in areas that I didn't like, mainly my abdomen. I finally saw a friend of mine that was looking super fabulous and I asked what was her "secret." She told me Sono Bello Wayne and I began with my 6 months research and 10 days later I'm happy with my decision I'm still sore and numb but no bruising and all my incisions are almost closed. I'm in my secondary compression garment that I only take off when showering I have a back up garment for when I hand wash and air dry one to wear. The first few days were hard for me because my tolerance for pain is low but on day 6 I was feeling like my old self again, I was moving around without feeling stiff and I was more active. Sorry for the long review and the over selling but I'm just so excited. Sincerely Nneka.

While I do see some contouring, I believe it's more from my increased physical activity and moderated diet. But the pain is beyond belief. Because the payment is non-refundable, you feel compelled to go through with the procedure. I cannot tell you how much it hurts!

I had put on about 40 extra pounds after having a baby and being a stay-at-home mom 13 years ago. Three years ago I managed to lose the extra 40 pounds but needless to say my belly, hips, and waistline just didn't bounce back as I was hoping.

I decided I wanted to be able to wear a bikini again without feeling self-conscious or constantly finding a way to keep my arms covering my midsection. And now, I don't even know how to describe what I see!! I can wear basically anything I want to wear. My little black sheath dress, fitted shirts, and definitely my bikini.

Every time I look in the mirror (which I avoided most of the time prior), I'm still amazed. My belly is actually flat again and I have an hourglass figure from my waist to my hips. The one big thing that stands out about my transformation was when I put on that new bikini and saw the look on my husband's face. He summed it up with one simple word "Wow!"

In addition to my amazing results, every staff member at Sono Bello was friendly and genuinely concerned about my desired result. Each team member I spoke with explained every detail of my procedure, step by step, and what I should expect after my procedure. They really put me at ease and made the decision to choose Sono Bello very easy to make. Thank you Sono Bello for giving me such an awesome transformation!

I was hesitant before I had my initial consultation at Sono Bella Cincinnati. I had met with Jennifer Salstrom and had a great overview of the body sculpting procedure and process. I scheduled my procedure and paid for the expenses. My doctor was Joel Majer, I cannot rave enough about how easy the process was, how great the staff was. Great results and an absolutely awesome surgeon. 5 stars in my book, wish I had done it sooner.

I'm 5 days post surgery, had four areas done (upper, lower abs, waist, and hips). From the consult to the procedure, the whole experience was fantastic (consult - Janit, nurse - Tamara, and procedure from Dr. Hendrik). They kept me well informed, kept me at ease and explained what to expect. They provided fantastic advice for additional treatments to achieve the results I was seeking.

So far the pain is what I expected, if you think recovery is not going to hurt, well, then you are not being realistic, but I will say take at least 3-4 days to recover properly.

So far, my recovery's been great. I had drainage for the first day and a half, then it stopped, I did not have too much, in fact, I expected a lot more. I kept my bandages clean and changed them anytime I saw even the slightest hint of fluid. I showered after the first 24 hours and that felt great. I've been up and about as of the second day, even returning to work (from my home office).

I changed into my garment on the second day, that felt so much better than the binder they sent me home with, and it helps control pain and swelling. The most important thing you can do it to get up and move. I cleaned my house and went about my business as usual but no working out. I won't lie, I was moving a little slow, but it was good for me.

The first few evenings were tough because I chose not to take Norco and stick to Advil, Arnicare pellets/cream and CBD Oil. I will say that my core and torso are bruised, sore to the touch, swollen and a little hard, but I expected as much. I did experience bruising and swelling in my pelvic area, which was not a pretty site, but I used cool compresses and made sure to stay off my feet - my back every 3 or so hours for the first 3 days, which helped a lot.

Every day is getting better and better. Next week, I will begin Phase II, four more areas (outer, inner thigh, banana roll and knee). Yep, I did it once and I'm going back for my final results. Not happy about recovery but excited to get this done! It was a little pricey but you get what you pay for!

I will start back to Orange Theory tomorrow up until my next phase. I can already see the results, and it is fantastic! After having three kids by c-section, I needed this! The areas I had treated were areas that I had some success losing in the past with aggressive workouts and diet but still could not achieve full results. I am thrilled to see the final results, and I can't believe I did not do this sooner!

I think this works amazing for those who maintain an active lifestyle, eat clean (no processed food, soda or other crap) and are looking to lose the problem areas for good. In my opinion, this is not a weight loss solution, if you want to lose the weight you must, unfortunately, put the work in before you seek this treatment. Just my two cents...

I'm so thrilled to share the results I've seen after my procedure. What has been a battle to get rid of my problem ab area, I am now seeing the results one week post op. The Ontario Sono Bello location is stunning! Bright, clean, modern. The staff is amazing! The doctor is too! Everything explained well, and what to expect. I'm so glad I finally took the time to take care of me. Thank you Sono Bello Ontario.
