Thats horrible what happened to your friend!!! I assumed because it was less invasive it would be better/safer than regular lipo. I really am worried about my port as well, will they move it or what? I've come this far, all I want is to get rid of this FATTTTTT!!!

Last year I had the lap band put in. I have recently lost all my weight and am down to 135lbs however I still have fat around my mid section that I want GONE. I am interested in SmartLipo as its not as invasive and costly, however I would like to know if this would interfere with my lap band or lap band port? Does anyone know of a good…great doctor that offers the service. P.S. I am open to (in fact I would prefer) a doctor abroad ei, Mexico, costa rica etc. and a travel buddy I can go with. Thanks!

Ok cool, do you have a contact for him? Is he expensive?

I was banded in Mexico and by the sound of things it looks like finding a doctor that will take me will be hard to find! I am from the Caribbean so I will be flying into Miami or Fort Lauderdale, so they need to be within reasonable driving distance. Thanks for your help!

lol, i know i sound like i haven't done that much research but honestly i had never heard of the lab band before a few weeks ago, thus thinking lipo was my only option, (besides gastric bypass) and although i am 5'6" and 230 i dont qualify for GB. I am just really frustrated thats all... please be patient with me as i am just learning about the band now

Hi everyone I want to know if i can have lipo on my stomach and the lap band surgery done at the same time? I am saving up to go to Mexico to get the lap band and a Brazilian butt lift done, originally I was just going to get the lipo and the butt lift but a friend of mine suggested to get the lap-band instead as it would be a better long term investment. The problem is i HATE my stomach!!! I literally look pregnant, because i have a small frame, and i want to get rid of it immediately, I am scared i will loose weight un-proportionality. another reason why i want the 2 done at the same time is that i live in the Bahamas and taking time off from work for 2 or more weeks is hard to do... so essentially i want to kill 2 bird with one stone. what do u guys think? thanks hastily
