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...
