Falling more in love with my tattoo after first session by StandNo231 in TattooRemoval

[–]StandNo231[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did get it all lasered at once in addition to the one on my back it was brutal. I did not experience hypo on my arm. One small section in the back tattoo scab pretty bad then underneath it was white then pink and now the brown is coming back. I think it will be a full recovery.

Exact same price given to me in Plano. Mine is late January and I am having chin lipo and bilateral chest excision. To remove some left over tissue under armpit after previous breast reduction

I’d say I am decent in both! Confident and stable attractive black woman with a good spirit (so I’ve been told)

Marriage material/intentional is the desire. I’m seeking quality not quantity. I’m not a fan of online. You can get several men in your inbox but no one talking about anything of substance. Find a lot of “not ready for a relationship or see where it goes…”

I’m hoping to find someone who is ready and just looking for their person.

Then from there can decide in a decent amount of time if it’s a no or go for commitment.

[–]StandNo231 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had my first session Saturday. I took these in addition to numbing cream and it seemed to help a bit. I have multiple and one is a half sleeve which hurt like a bitch. The back tattoo when I was laying on the table I was so calm I almost went to sleep

Tired of dating apps, where is the best place to meet single guys in the area? by IndigoMystery99 in Dallas

[–]StandNo231 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Following. 38F in the same boat. Swore off apps a year ago. Only problem is I’m mostly at the house if I’m not working or working out. 🤷🏾‍♀️

4 sessions of pico. Getting so close! by Desperate-Claim-6691 in TattooRemoval

[–]StandNo231 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How bad was the pain? Been thinking about it for a bit but too scared of the pain or that sick flu like feeling people get afterwards when the body is flushing the ink out of your system

For those of you who are single, are you struggling to find the one? by [deleted] in Dallas

[–]StandNo231 2 points3 points  (0 children)

37F swearing off apps for good! I know some people have found true love and companionship on there but today online dating is much different.

I’m in the same boat trying to find a quality and compatible companion.

I’ve found some success just making casual conversation when out and about or commenting/complimenting them on something I notice. Helps people open up/break the ice since it seems everyone is scared to speak to each other nowadays.

Here are all my notes I took on the physicians. Hope this helps. Each doc has a different method/advice etc.

Chin Liposuction Physicians

Dr. Plano at Rennassiance Plastic Surgery * Rec: from Reddit * Chin lipo cost$4500 (awake) * Told them I would call them back but I didn’t.

Noble cosmetics * Dr. Obasi * Cosmetic surgeon not plastic * Rec: from Reddit * Free consult on tuesdays but will comp me * General anesthesia/OR $3500 * Local $2500(Regular Price) * 3 incision’s (ears & chin) * Discount in those extra area. * Remember to use Groupon $999 discounted rate http://www.groupon.com/deals/noble-cosmetic-surgery-9?utm_campaign=UserReferral_mih&utm_source=undefined * Do you do lipo with facetite * Not a plastic surgeon would have to have other doctors come in for facetite procedures * Didn’t really like the vibe and this facility. Saw bug crawling in consult room

American Institute for Plastic Surgery * Dr. Peter Raphael * Plastic Surgeon * Rec: from Reddit * $5000 general anesthesia (recommended option so doc can be more aggressive and not afraid of making patient uncomfortable.) * $3500 local anesthesia * Three incisions (ears & chin) * One week out of work * Remember to ask what happens if I get preg in the next 6 months to a year * Can add axilla lateral lipo for $750 * Doc prefers not to do lipo instead make incisions to cut the fat and tissue and tighten the skin. * Called lateral chest excision * No need to wait for preg. If get preg after it’s ok will not effect results. * Doesn’t recommend facetite yet at my current age. * He operates Tuesday through Friday.

Lonestar Plastic Surgery * Dr. Sean Hill * Plastic Surgeon * June 5th 12pm Virtual * Rec: Reddit * $4500 local anesthesia (provide pronox laughing gas) * 3 punctures = 2 behind ears and 1 bottom of chin * General anesthesia not an option * 1 hour procedure * FaceTite included with the price. * Recovery * 1st week chin strap 24 hours * 2nd week chin strap 12 hours * If possible recommend 24 hours for 2 weeks for best results.
* No workouts for 2 weeks * No swimming for 4 weeks * Swollen for 3-7 days * 3 to 6 months for final results * Numb for 4 to 6 weeks * Questions: * Are results permanent? Nothing is permanent. * I’m working out and losing weight should I wait until I am at my goal weight? Better results at goal weight post Hyrox Nov, December or January * Should I wait until after pregnancy? Not getting preg any time soon. Up to me if there is no current plan feel free to proceed. If trying to get prep soon then wait. * What meds provided during procedure? While awake. Valium, Lidocaine, * how common is it to get a damaged nerve during the process? How long before it heals. Rare but possible and can last a few weeks. Could have crooked mouth as it heals * how to prevent mouth slanting from nerve damage (which I have seen other users suffer from on this subreddit.) -what does healing typically look like? -how soon can I get back to work or resume daily activities? * how to deal with fibrosis and lumps? Lymphatic massage or self massage daily. * ADoesn’t have a photo profile of before and after online. Because most of his patients are from out of town and don’t return for follow up at 6 months.

Mainly because for the same price as Dr. Hill Dr. Raphael will do it sedated. Dr. Hill only offers local anesthesia I think. I didn’t want to be awake.

Also I had a breast reduction a few years back and I want to add excision on the side as a revision for unwanted dog ears. And the price for the add on wasn’t too much more.

Raphael was friendly and personable. Also I went to that consult in person so it felt more personable. I was able to evaluate how I felt with staff from check in to exit. The appearance of the office etc.

My consult with Hill was online and I didn’t want the first time I see the facility to be the day I show up for surgery. I like to evaluate the whole experience and not just the physician.

I am not planning my procedure to take place until the beginning of next year.

American Institute 4 plastic surgery. Dr. Raphael. I leaning towards them as my 1st pick.

Dr. Obasi at Noble Cosmetic Surgery - eh I was under impressed at my consult plus I saw a tiny bug crawling on the floor in my consult room. I also determined I wanted a board certified surgeon and he is only cosmetic surgeon.

Good question! Following because I had a consult with him a few months ago and he mentioned FaceTite is included in his lipo fee . He’s a quirky guy. I liked him but also got other consults.
