i had Liposuction on several spots done on Oct 27, 2015. The areas I had liposuction on were: inner and outer thighs; upper and lower abs; arms; hips, waist and back. This was a lot to have done at one time. Dr. Lawton and his staff were very helpful and kind during surgery and the follow-up visits. Dr. Lawton was upfront about what he could do and what I should or should not expect from the procedure. He was able to remove a little over 10 liters of fat during the surgery. it has been a little over 2 months and over half of the swelling is gone. I was listed as obese with a BMI of 38. I was a size 24 on top and a 22 Jeans. I am now a Large top (18-20) and Large bottom (jeans 16)> I was never concerned about the pounds but I went from 271 lbs, to 256 lbs at this point. This is without adding exercise. I expect more to come off after I begin working out again, however, I love the size proportions that I am now. I would recommend waiting for about 2 weeks before I would have returned to work due to the large areas that he worked on. Expect to be sore and the amount of soreness should be based on the amount of area the procedure is covering. The bruises looked worse than the pain was. I highly recommend wearing the compression body stocking and if you are getting your arms dome get either a compression top or compression sleeves to wear. You can buy more compression stocking called Flexes at Walmart for $13-$15 so you can get new ones as your size decreases. It helps remove the pain and is working on helping the skin reduce without as much sagging. I am looking forward to seeing what I look like when all the swelling is gone. The procedure is well worth the time and money in my opinion, I might still be heavy but I look great, have a figure and feel much better about myself. I am recommending Dr. Lawton to my friends.
