27 Year Old, Male. Palm Beach, FL - I have been unhappy with my body for quite sometime now and I wanted to see my options for change. I went to see Dr. William Vinyard at Plastic Surgery of Palm Beach. We spoke about 2 options, Coolsculpting and Smart lipo. He said I was a candidate for both types it was up to me though on which to choose. Coolsculpting I would have needed a couple treatments in each area and a time frame of 4-6 weeks between each cycle in the same spot. Only benefit was you have no downtime. Smart Lipo he could hit all areas and sculpt my body much easier, but I would have downtime and pain. My scheduled surgery was 12/4/2014 Photos to follow. I do have to say it has been 24 hours and I am already happy with the results. I will update periodically with images to show my outcome. I would definitely recommend if you are looking for results.Updated on 6 Dec 2014:Here are the photos after my 1 day post op. I am already happy with the results. A little nervous about the skin, but I was told it will retract in the next few weeks.Updated on 11 Dec 2014:I went in for another Post-op appointment to get my sutures removed. Dr. Vinyard explained to me that I am swollen and within six weeks I will slim down a bit more and my skin will retract. He is very happy with the results so far.Update: I stopped my pain pills by the 4th day and started taking 600mg of ibuprofen. Still have a bit of pain, but it's tolerable and not overdoing it. I can't sleep through the night yet; the pain will wake me up when I try to move. I wear my compression garment for probably 23hrs a day, and I only remove when I shower and switch the compression shirt. I feel very uncomfortable without the garment on. I'll update photos again in a week. More
