18 months post op have lost 65 lbs went from a 16 to a 6 and i have the belly fat. But I am scheduled for smart lipo on Feb 19th. I can tell you after that if it helps. Had smart lipo done on legs in November and I am very happy. was thinking of tummy tuck but dr thinks smart lipo will be what i am looking for with less cost and less down time.
