Fully research your procedure

By Sherice S., Panorama City, CA, Verified Reviewer

Have your consultation in Beverly Hills because you won't be fully informed anywhere else. Make sure you speak up no matter what, especially if you get the doctor that cuts you before your lidocaine kicks in. I have a new respect and advocacy for my surgery patients since my procedure. Krystal and Cynthia are amazing and caring. I may have my arms done but not with that doctor. Once you sign paperwork, you don't have long to change your mind before you're locked in and will lose the deposit.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Lovely

By Tami F., Wellsville, KS, Verified Reviewer

Well, there's not much to say about Sono Bello other than that place is the best place to be. The atmosphere is good, the people are great, and I had the best I care possible from each one of the staff there at Sono Bello, as well as the management level. I get a lot of comments and compliments now about how well and how good I look, and I'm so excited to get motivated more to help me be active and work out. This is the reason that I did it, and for my health. Sono Bello rocks.

Really expensive mistake

By Lindsey B., Colorado, Verified Reviewer

I never lost any weight or inches, and still am numb all over. The 6-month follow-up was a waste of time as the doctor didn't want to do any revisions due to my weight not changing and would charge me for anything additional, but it isn't a weight loss program...didn't matter that I wasn't happy with my results. I could have gotten more fat out had I done each section individually, and now I'm bumpy and lumpy all over, and totally displeased with the results. The most expensive bad decision I've ever made.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Bogus

By Kisha C., Clermont, FL, Verified Reviewer

These Sono Bello ads are just a set up to get you into their office so they can tell you Sono Bello isn’t recommended for you and surgery will give better results. I am petite, 5'4" and 137 pounds, with a pudgy stomach (my stomach is smaller than the people in these before and after pics), but they say Sono Bello won’t work for me. A waste of time and false advertisement.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Update!

By Janice R., Portland, OR, Verified Reviewer

Today is New Year's Eve and my shape continues to improve! I must say that as the skin tightens up, it initially appears uneven, but that changes as you heal.

Bring on 2019

By Diane L., Oklahoma City, OK, Verified Reviewer

I made an appointment with Sono Bello to get information regarding the procedure. I hadn't planned on making a decision that day, but after meeting with the Consultant, I scheduled my procedure for two weeks and had the procedure before Christmas! I am still recovering but a very positive experience!

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

My Sono Bello experience

By Vivian K., Cleveland, OH, Verified Reviewer

I took have taken a real interest in Sono Bello for a long time. Between the TV ads and researching their website, I always knew I just had to give them a chance. I am so glad I did. The staff is wonderful. My surgery experience was not scary or overly painful. The nurse and doctor showed care and concern for my feelings and expectation. I am already letting others know about Sono Bello for their own experience now.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Better than I expected

By Lauren S., Garfield Heights, OH, Verified Reviewer

I had my procedure done on December 27 and the next day I was up walking and feeling quite good.

I had six incisions I know, but one had stopped seeping in the first day.

So far I am very happy with the results - although I can’t wait to take this body suit off in one month and wear it less.

Thank you Dr. Moon.

Awful experience

By Danielle D., Michigan, Verified Reviewer

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.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Sono Bello

By Edie R., Oklahoma City, OK, Verified Reviewer

This procedure was the best thing I have done for myself! From the consult to the actual procedure, the staff treated me with the utmost respect. Truly a caring bunch of people.

The procedure was not difficult at all. I didn’t feel a thing. After I was pretty out of it because of the meds (pretty entertaining, my family said). Sore for about a week, but nothing extreme. Some bruising that went away quickly. The results at two weeks are amazing! I am looking forward to the end result.

Sono Bello rocks!

Don't do it

By Natashagis R., Sacramento, CA, Verified Reviewer

They failed to mention that I could end up being uneven. I went a second time because the doctor did not do it right the first time. I hate looking at myself in the mirror. The doctor changed my figure from being pear-shaped, which I was fine with, being heavier on my bottom area to being coke shaped. But now that some of the fat has come back, I look very top heavy. It's disturbing to look at myself in the mirror. My waist doesnt even come in. I can't even wear a bathing suit because of how uneven my right hip is from left hip. And the left side of my stomach comes in more than the right side. I regret going here. Going here made me regret even having lipo done.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend
